Bravo to those who had the courage to stand and fight.
Thank GOD that these people are the ones that hold sway over textbook content!
The author is horrified that there’s push-back against a radical socialist agenda . . . that’s she’s obviously in agreement with. There isn’t even a pretense of objectivity.
It's a sad day in American education when something such as the fact that the US is a republic has to be debated. When we deny the fact that certain Christian values and ideas are behind our Constitution and justice system etc. The secular left wants to expunge things from curricula even though it's significant and factual out of ideological reasons.
Education belongs in the hands of those that pay for it and whose kids are affected. Even the idea of what textbooks should contain and be used is something that is for the school districts to decide, not some amateur or politician in Austin or God forbid some day Washington when they gobble up that too.
Nice impartial reporting from Buttociated Press.
How about the origins of terrorists bombing planes? Islamonazism has been with us for decades now.
Lone Star Bump
Berlanga also bristled when the board approved an amendment that deletes a requirement that sociology students "explain how institutional racism is evident in American society."
Even today?
I don’t know why anyone would have a problem with these standards. It’s not like they are requiring kids to learn creationism in science class. The only ones that might have a problem here are the atheists, race baiters and illegals.
thanks for the post...this is good news...good news indeed
YeeHaaaa!
It’s a start. Now, parents need to monitor whether a teacher trashes or upholds the standards.
another hearing in May.....but Main work is done
The decline of the USA is stil a choice....a step at a time
This makes this mom of two school age boys in Texas public schools happy.
The Democrats, all of whom were Hispanic or African American, felt that U.S. Army’s role in the attempted extermination of American Indians and the Chicano Mural Movement were priorities. It’s not hard to see why their communities are as backward as they are. Those that represent these communities have never figured out the key to success in America. The key to success for them is to bash what made America great. Within their communities those that figure out it is the greatness of the American system that will lift them up - they succeed and pull themselves up and out of poverty. The more that figure this out the less votes for these liberals. The key to success, therefore, for the lefties, is to keep their constituents in ignorance.
