Even as the Biden administration doubles down on Critical Race Theory, a dishonest, divisive, toxic idea holding that Whites are racist, inferior creatures who have used their unfairly obtained privilege to oppress Blacks and other races, parents are beginning to fight back. It turns out that, once you ignore cancel culture make a statement, there are a lot of people who want to follow your lead. One of those parents, to his surprise, found himself at the head of a brewing revolution.
Three weeks ago, two letters exploded on the New York education scene and started echoing through the rest of America. The first was from a teacher challenging Grace Church High School's anti-white Critical Race Theory indoctrination. The second letter was from Andrew Gutmann, who spoke out against the same indoctrination at the Brearley school. Both schools are expensive, claim to be elite, and are teaching a doctrine every bit as toxic as the Jim Crow eugenics garbage that Democrats promoted in the first half of the 20th century.
While the teacher's letter was an eye-opener, the fact that Gutmann is a parent meant that his letter resonated with parents across America. To his surprise, he's found himself leading the charge for these parents. In an opinion piece in the New York Post, Gutmann describes the positive feedback he's getting, as well as the fact that there is a huge battle ahead for those parents unhappy about the hard left turn their children's education has taken:

Its a paradox, but “academics” are usually the most ideological, reactionary and stupid people you will ever meet.
they also are among the most craven and spineless. So when you push back, don’t just push back against particularly instances of “critical race theory” cite their total hypocrisy
Probably pretty obvious who uses these facilities.
“holding that Whites are racist, inferior creatures who have used their unfairly obtained privilege to oppress Blacks and other races”
This begs the question: Where do we find Wakanda?
They are actually the testing ground for this kind of thing.
If parents who are paying through the nose for you to train their kids will stand for it you will not receive major push back from the general public.
Of course, sometimes they are wrong.
All this would go away if the schools could teach black kids to read and do math at grade level and to close the gap on SAT scores. What is the obstacle? That is the question that should be put front and center every time the woke activists insert themselves into the schools.
Compton CA?
Southside Chicago?
Inner Detroit?
Sadly, divisiveness is BIG BUX for the likes of splc, aclu, rainbow/push, nan, $blm and a whole lot of others so not expecting to see it shut down anytime soon. Cha Ching!
First paragraph descends in to incoherence.
Edit you stuff.
You write a good article but mess it up in presentation.
Not even in the US- no where in the world is there a majority-black nation that is considered anything but a third-world country. If they are the majority then it would go to reason that White Man’s racism isn’t what keeps them down.
Parents responding violently against CRT wouldn’t surprise me.
:: What is the obstacle? ::
Educational success is inherently white and blacks can only achieve education parity by becoming white...and selling out their blackness.
Even if you have white in your past, your educational success (typically, 3/5 of the achievement of whites) is tied to you “one drop” of slave blood...er...black blood.
That what the white lefties keep telling them.
Can’t get ahead unless you ask a white lefty.
Education didn’t suddenly take a hard left. It’s been curving left for decades, since I was in Kindergarten (1992). I remember teachers explaining to us that people other than military and police should never own guns, and then having us answer yes and no questions about gun control. At FIVE.
By high school, it was full on indoctrination in social studies courses, especially American history. For three years, I had the same teacher, and she was as far left as Harris. Michael Moore was presented to us as fact, and when I called her out for teaching opinion, I got a non-reaction. Basically, she knew I couldn’t do anything about it.
Yeah. Most of my classmates bought it.
Taking a distant look into the past, I can now see it in the mid 60’s when i was in high school. Obviously grown exponentially. 😕
They are creating and setting the ground work for a race war from top to bottom
Divisiveness=💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
