Public schools teaching 'white privilege' to your kids

What would you think if your 8-year-old came home and told you that “white privilege is something that white people have, meaning they have an advantage in a lot of things and they can get a job more easily”? You would have heard that at the recent 15th annual White Privilege Conference in Madison, Wisconsin, attended by 2,500 public-school teachers, administrators and students from across the nation.

Parents put their kids in private schools because they’re racist

I guess that makes the magic muslim a racist.

Ah, public schools.

The windows vista of education.

The GM of education.

Why, oh why, does anyone who even begins to love their children subject them to that collection O’clowns?

Remember, even folks with low standards such as the Obamas and the majority of dim-bulb-crat congresscritters send their children to REAL schools - not that pile of politically correct collective cr*p known as a public school.

I don’t disagree with your choice for homeschooling. But in the same vein, not everyone can afford to home school, and we must stop them from indoctrinating and making more democRATS. We must stop spending OUR tax dollars on salaries that then pay union dues that in turn go to support democRATS. Closing the public schools isn’t going to happen, and privatizing them isn’t likely either.

Does this mean that White People should not be able to teach these courses, since to do so would be Hypocritical.
Pure Nonsense from the left. Another ploy to create more Division between people, brought to you by our current Government.

Home schooling can be done for free. I actually know a family that is dirt poor and very effectively home schools their three kids who are now 15, 17 and 19.

And this was BEFORE the likes of khanacademy.

Actually, I’m in a band with this family (I’m the bass player). I see them weekly. They live in a house with bare floors and 1/4” gaps in the floorboards so that the cool air from the basement can be the summertime air conditioner. The band is actually part of their home schooling, but we got so good we are actually in demand in this area.

The way to close public schools is to stop participating.

Homeschool.
And if your first response is “we/I can’t do that”,
figure out a way. Otherwise you’re giving your kids to Satan’s minions for discipleship, and that’s NOT hyperbole.

To simply remove your kids only makes it easier for them to destroy other peoples kids, and turn THEM into democRATS.

At this point, "fighting the power" is merely pissing into the wind. People who are abandoning public schools are attempting a flanking maneuver rather than a headlong assault against overwhelming odds. All we can hope for now are little harassing guerrilla victories. The war is lost.

I guess the many successful and educated Asian Americans around the country didn’t get the memo about the problem of “white privilege” in our society. What a load of crap. Just another superficial way that white liberals make themselves appear sympathetic to minorities, and what a shock the meeting is held in Madison, Wisconsin.

“white privilege is something that white people have, meaning they have an advantage in a lot of things and they can get a job more easily”

I'd say, "We're White. What's the problem?"

"White privilege" is being cast as some kind of "insider" thing. Where we grant each other exceptions to the rules and special favors.

This is patently bullsh*t.

What we do have is a Culture of hard work, established means of ethically generating wealth under Capitalism, and a philosophy of Individual Rights and Responsibilities.

This ethos is "color blind", unless you are some Socialist dirtbag who would rather engender a sense of entitlement and inequality to try and avoid the hard work necessary to "get ahead" in such a system.

Let's start calling them what they are rather than letting them dictate the terms of the debate.

I would say that is what losers tell themselves to make themselves feel better about being losers, instead of working hard to become winners.

Liberals have taken over the entire education system and brainwash the nation's children.

The conservative response is to write some columns, pray, and have a bake sale.

Liberals will continue to win until we start to attack and destroy them, one at a time if necessary.

They've been doing that since the 1980’s, at least.

Please take your kids out of the Socialist government indoctrination centers aka Public Schools.
