More Than 5,000 Woke Teachers Sign Pledge to Teach CRT 'Regardless of the Law'
The Western Journal ^ | 4 Jul, 2021 | Garion Frankel

Throughout much of 2021, conservatives, in both classrooms and in the halls of state legislatures, have been fighting back against the pervasive influence of critical race theory in public schools.

Laws banning the instruction of CRT tenets in public schools have passed in more than 20 states, and there is reason t0 hope that the tide is beginning to turn in the fight for the country’s history and principles.

Unfortunately, the Zinn Education Project refuses to accept defeat, and desires to teach American children that this country was founded upon the “dispossession of Native Americans, slavery, structural racism and oppression,” as opposed to the principles of liberty enshrined in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.

The organization is named for Howard Zinn, a socialist activist and “historian” who wrote “A People’s History of the United States,” a left-wing propaganda pamphlet disguised as a textbook that has made its way into history classes all across the country.

SNIP

So far, according to the Zinn Education Project, the pledge has been signed by more than 5,000 educators in all 50 states, and many of the signees were more than happy to provide their reasons for signing. Needless to say, some of them were quite shocking.

“How can we teach future generations to disrupt systems if we are not willing to speak the truth about the systems?” one wrote.

School boards of those clowns had better know the sentence. “Your *ss is fired.”
If not, the electors of those school board members had better know the sentence, “Your *sses are fired.”
If that does not work, perhaps the board members should know the phrase, “Lock your doors, board up the windows, and get the fire extinguishers out, because we’re not going to live very long.”
Totally not kidding.
No child of mine will go to a school that contains intellect equal to that of a family of slime molds.

Conservative students are kicked out of education programs in the universities. That’s been happening at least since the 1980s. It’s simple.

A leftist activist instructor teaching a class essential to the degree will kick a conservative student out of her class. The student’s advisor tells the student that nothing can be done about it. The student then drops out or moves to another program away from education.

That was done to me during the first few days of a class during the 1980s, after I returned from a summer of combat training at Ft. Leonard Wood (haircut, changed appearance and bearing). It was a secondary (for teaching high school) English program. The class was rhetoric (a junior level class for the major). I’d said nothing in the class previous to that, by the way, and didn’t provoke the instructor to do that. She was the state N.O.W. (National Organization for Women) President at the time.

Alumni, parents and politicians didn’t want to listen for the last 20 years. We’ll pay the price during the years to come.

Brave Enemy Combatants, but just as evil as pedophiles.

If this does not jolt parents to pull their kids, or at least take over the school boards and fire these 5,000 nothing will.

these 5,000 people are brainwashed storm troopers. If they will teach against the law, what else will they do that is against the law? I put nothing past them.

This is truly scary.

“The time has come for separation of school and state.”

Teachers and their Unions should become a latter day version of air traffic controllers. Increasingly, cities & states are in a tail wags the dog situation.

” a virtue signaling herd mentality.”

Yep. Together with a lot of narcissism.

Live in the DC suburbs. I think narcissism is a requirement for an “inside the beltway” job.

This lady did not sign it!

Also, really stupid on the part of many teachers as being an active member of the communist party may mean you can’t teach under state law. In Indiana, to get your license you have to agree to uphold the Constitution and not try to over throw the government.... So being a commie could cause a teacher to lose their license.

Another reason to homeschool!! Parents, if you want your kids to love America, homeschool them. Yes, it might be inconvenient to be your kids teacher, but is a Ferrari in your garage more important than your kids?

They only got 5,000 to sign on? That tells me that most of the other 3.3 million K-12 teachers don’t realize they’re teaching CRT.

This is why fighting on their territory is FUTILE - they will implement CRT because they OWN the schools and unless they’re being monitored 24/7 in those schools, they can and WILL do as they wish. All the laws, School Boards, etc. is good and fine, but they will simply go underground and totally deny every charge.

The problem here is very simple - they WANT to teach Racism and they WILL teach racism, at least until they’re thrown out of work and the system is rebuilt from the ground up.

Excellent! This will make a good start in firing useless teachers.

I have several times mentioned family members in public education.
There is a concerted effort to drive out older, experienced and effective teachers. The goal is to replace them with young malleable teachers fresh out of college and already raised and educated in CRT and related anti-American constructs. Those who will teach the assigned curriculum without question.
