Rantz: Seattle-area schools tell 2nd graders cops are racist, push left-wing activism

Two Seattle-area schools are using the Black Lives Matter movement to push anti-police curriculum to second graders. When asked why the content was chosen to begin with, districts haven’t been especially forthcoming.

Among the lessons being promoted, either in the virtual classroom or via third-party resources to parents, students as young as 7-years-old are taught that racist police routinely target innocent Black Americans but don’t suffer consequences because police cover for each other. Content also pushes far-left social justice causes as students are told to become social justice activists.

What’s worse, the schools only remove or revise the content after parents complain. Teaching students cops are racist

A second grade teacher at Grove Elementary in Marysville posted a video animation to their online system.

The video is titled “Animation Series: Something Happened In Our Town.” Parents were supposed to watch the video with their kids. Later that week, the students were supposed to discuss the video in their virtual class with their teacher and classmates.

The video tells the story of a white officer shooting a Black man, as told through the experiences of a young white girl and a young Black boy.

While the story offers decidedly non-controversial lessons like people should be treated equally, it also forwards a not-so-subtle anti-police narrative that second graders are unlikely to understand in context.

When the white girl asks why police shot the man, she’s told by her sister, “The cops shot him because he was Black.” The girl’s mom says it was a mistake to shoot the man, noting that, “It was a mistake that is part of a pattern” where white people are treated well, but not Black people.

School choice, or just plain home-schooling.

Those are the ONLY viable remedies.

I heard this on the radio today. Another school is using some “ABC book for Progressives” A is for Activism. U is for Unions, W is for Workers Rights, O is for organize, etc.

Seriously crazy stuff to be teaching first graders (or whenever kids learn their ABCs.

When Obama was an Illinois Senator he and Bill (step on the American flag) Ayers had gained total control of the distribution of funds from the Annenberg foundation which they passed its millions on to lefty fronts offering courses to Illinois and Chicago schools pushing the what soon would be the BLM agenda. Author and investigative reporter Stanley Kurtz should be asked about this when interviewed about socialist plans for the suburbs. For at that time when Obama was doing this he tried to expose those radical left study programs over a program held by WGN radio but was threatened by protesters who prevented a coherent presentation.

Our Education System Fosters American Self-Loathing

The American Federation of Teachers, in its most recent journal, illustrates how postmodern ideology also dominates K-12 education. The issue paints America as under siege by the white supremacist power structure and urges its 1.6 million members to counter the pervasive “hostility and discrimination of people because of their race, ethnicity, sexual orientation/identity, immigrant … or disability status” by being activists in the classroom. Teachers should defy our “racist country” by promoting victimized racial and ethnic groups and focus on the social inequities pervasive in America http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3793469/posts
