High School English Students Forced to Learn Gender-Bending Pronouns and Anti-White Propaganda

If you send your kids off to high school thinking they will learn how to diagram sentences and write competently, you may want to check their English requirements. John F. Kennedy High School in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, has other ideas about learning English that include gender-neutral pronouns, discussions of sexuality, and anti-white propaganda.

A student posted an assignment to social media, handed out by teacher Emily Thomson of Kennedy High's English department, that detailed "power and privilege" in America which, according to the assignment, names "U.S. born," "white people," "Christians," "middle, owning class," "heterosexuals," "men," and "veterans" as the oppressors of non-white humankind. How this is not a violation of the school's policy against discrimination based on race, creed, and sexuality is baffling.

Now, about that home schooling.

Ping list ping.

Veterans? Yeah, oppressing people by serving, defending and dying for them. How did I not see it all these years? Probably because I went to high school in Huxley, Iowa, not Cedar Rapids.

"the assignment, names "U.S. born," "white people," "Christians," "middle, owning class," "heterosexuals," "men," and "veterans" as the oppressors of non-white humankind"

Would you look at that
I nailed every one of the prerequisites.
And, here I am, still working at a job like some common slob.

A year or two before I retired, I had to attend my one-and-only "white privilege" class. One exercise consisted of having everyone cluster at the center of the room, and then take one step away from the center depending on your answer to a question. The questions were designed so as to separate black from white, or whites from all other minorities. It was quite literally and intentionally divisive.

The irony was that many of the supervisors were Asians and/or women, so many of the "oppressed" people were actually doing quite well.

Emily Thomson.

Of course it’s John F. Kennedy High School. The rich, white, heterosexual, male.

The Cedar Rapids Community School District’s non-discrimination policy, per its website:

“It is the policy of the Cedar Rapids Community School District not to discriminate in educational programs on the basis of race, creed, color, gender, sexual orientation, marital status, gender identity, socioeconomic status, national origin, religion, disability, age (except for permitting/prohibiting students to engage in certain activities) or genetic information and in employment opportunities on the basis of age, race, creed, color, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, religion, disability or genetic information.

This “teacher’s” curriculum violates the policy and she should be disciplined or, better yet, fired. The policy probably wasn’t intended to protect whites, Christians, males, people with normal sexuality, American citizens, etc., but someone in town needs to blow this back on them and make it stick.

Sue them for descrimination

The biggest privilege:
Parents who married before the child was born, and stayed married.

Next biggest privilege.
Being an American.

Next biggest privilege:
A father who maintained relatively continuous employment (of any legal type and level) through the childhood of said child.

Regardless of race, this child has a chance of growing up in impoverished conditions of less than 10%, and the marriage part alone has approximately 1/6th the chance of being incarcerated as peers whose parents do not.

No surprise since there is no true north in Cedar Rapids.

[rktman]

Well I guess I proudly oppressed folks back in the late 60’s early 70’s with all that colonizing we were doing back then.

[glennaro]

Thanks for the photo. Says pretty much all you need to know ...

[rktman]

You obviously need to amp up your detestable white privilege then.

Nicknamed ‘Spike’ or ‘Googleyes’?

Well, they won’t let me own slaves (anymore), so what’s left? Gunowner? Check. Conservative? Check.

[robowombat]

Contact information. As a veteran I would like to send this person a note.

[poinq]

Yep, my kids come home and say. You would not believe what we are learning. What they are not learning is English, History, the Constitution or Philosophy.
