California Wants to Teach Your Kids That Capitalism Is Racist
Wall Street Journal ^ | July 30, 2019 | Williamson Evers

California’s Education Department has issued an “Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum” and is soliciting public comments on it until Aug. 15. The legislatively mandated guide is a resource for teachers who want to instruct their students in the field of “ethnic studies,” and was written by an advisory board of teachers, academics and bureaucrats. It’s as bad as you imagine.

Ethnic studies is described in the document as “the interdisciplinary study of race, ethnicity, and indigeneity with an emphasis on experiences of people of color in the United States.” But that’s not all it is. “It is the study of intersectional and ancestral roots, coloniality, hegemony, and a dignified world where many worlds fit, for present and future generations.” It is the “xdisciplinary [sic], loving, and critical praxis of holistic humanity.”

Sorry to say, the country is irreparably divided. There needs to be a split, a divorce of some kind. There isn’t any common ground with these leftists. We are literally one election away from totally losing the constitutional protections of the Bill of Rights. What’s next? Our capitulation to the left or will there be some other solution or outcome?

Good old Marxism wrapped up in new 2019 paper but still the same old anti-America Marxism.

Those are $100 sentences filled with $10 words. Gibberish at best.

Never use a big word when a diminutive one will suffice.

Teaching anchor babies to hate America and resent white people over racial slights not done to their illiterate ancestors who hadn’t yet illegally migrated to America.

Cali skewls only need to teach kids how to sign up for government benefits, and to be able to read and check off the letter d on a ballot.

It’s hegemony over actual logic and academic discourse.

the study of intersectional and ancestral roots, coloniality, hegemony,

oh lookie - another Grievance 101A class. That'll come in handy on Mars no doubt. Just what our kids need. And they still won't be able to balance a checkbook.

We need to expel California from the union, conquer it, shoot its entire current government right down to the school boards, then administer it as a conquered territory, complete with military governor and martial law, for a few generations.

Capitalism oppresses People of Color, despite their unlimited potential to succeed under capitalism.

Therefore, People of Color who succeed under capitalism are racist white supremacists.
