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

Posted on 07/07/2021 3:06:19 PM PDT by MtnClimber

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.

Governors of states that have passed laws prohibiting teaching CRT need to implement the solution Regan used on the air traffic controllers. Not that they will.

They should be removed immediately if they do.

Soon there will be no white kids in public schools, and their budgets will come under strident scrutiny.

FR Article

See my post #46 in the above-linked FR article. I wrote almost the identical thing, because I lived through it in NYC public "schools". They drove out the older and more conservative teachers and did just as you stated the goal was:

"...replace them with young malleable teachers fresh out of college and already raised and educated in CRT and related anti-American constructs..."

Can these “teachers” teach math or spelling? Can they actually spell and do math.

If they are hired as math teachers, I guess they can teach math, at least to some extent. With all the foreigners they have been hiring as teachers in the last decade or so, I wouldn't swear they could spell that well. Some of the native American born teachers couldn't spell that well either, for that matter, especially the men.

But, by definition…it’s a theory. It’s not history.

The time has come for separation of school and state.

I was thinking separation of “manifesto and state.”

They sure are making an all-out push for communism.

Much of this push is the "last stand" of our large population of old leftist hippies who've enlisted their indoctrinated kids and grandkids to help them "stick it to The Man." Some of them are billionaires too dumb to realize they became "The Man" long ago.

Worthless then, old and worthless now.

“Sounds like there should be 5,000 job openings”
Exactly, what are the names of these racist teachers ? What schools do they teach in? Let’s see the list.

Public Education remains but a marginally effective service, and the cost/benefit ratios to broader society argue more strongly for its replacement with every passing tax bill.

I’ll add this to the growing chorus:
