Specifically, the new standards, which will take effect in 2025, define a culturally responsive educator as, among other things, one who will “critically think about the institutions in which they find themselves, working to reform these institutions whenever and wherever necessary,” as well as one who will “assess how their biases and perceptions affect their teaching practice and how they access tools to mitigate their own behavior (racism, sexism, homophobia, unearned privilege, Eurocentrism, etc.).”

Maoist crap.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

It doesn’t matter if a kid’s ancestors came from Africa or China. We don’t follow African or Chinese laws and customs here. So I guess I was and still am guilty of ‘Eurocentrism’
Of all the interlocking Marxist takeover elements, one which had a solution that went neglected is the K-12 school system.
Although my wife and I were not blessed with children, I know the parents around us just let the teachers and administrators and unions run on automatic pilot ——heading into Leftist brainwashing. Neglect of parent-teacher or community meetings led to more and more leftist nonsense about “how awful America has always been.”
College kids’ parents in their 40s-55 or so already were taught the lies and think it’s noble to parrot them.
Lesson plans, exam booklets and textbooks will say "Made in China." Is that close enough?
Barbara Billingsley was way ahead of us. Way ahead.
Home school bump—public school leftist indoctrination is child abuse.
Don't look now but the Left is coming for faith based school accreditation removal and same for home schooling.
I use that same explanation. The truth is what it is- our language, culture, forms of government, are products of Western Europe. I would and do say the US is the penultimate product of the Enlightenment.
