More than 5,000 teachers have signed onto a pledge at the Zinn Education Project that states they vow to teach their students the concepts of Critical Race Theory (CRT), even where it is banned by law.
Far-Left teachers unions are prepared to ram Critical Race Theory propaganda into the minds of students while targeting those who oppose it. https://t.co/SaUv9YFed7

Making the claim that bans on teaching students America is a racist, sexist, oppressive country mean they will be taught “lies” instead, the Zinn Education Project’s pledge states:
Lawmakers in at least 26 states are attempting to pass legislation that would require teachers to lie to students about the role of racism, sexism, heterosexism, and oppression throughout U.S. history.
The project claims the laws “aim to prohibit teachers from teaching the truth about this country: It was founded on dispossession of Native Americans, slavery, structural racism and oppression; and structural racism is a defining characteristic of our society today.”
A black Illinois father whose rant against Critical Race Theory at a local school board meeting last week went viral is not backing down. He, instead, is laughing at attempts by the left to discredit him. https://t.co/wHZMhm6nlH

“[H]ow can one teach honestly about the nature of our society without examining how today’s racial inequality is a systemic legacy of this country’s history?” the Zinn Education Project asks, and continues:
From police violence, to the prison system, to the wealth gap, to maternal mortality rates, to housing, to education and beyond, the major institutions and systems of our country are deeply infected with anti-Blackness and its intersection with other forms of oppression. To not acknowledge this and help students understand the roots of U.S. racism...

A union teacher knows best and will do what they want with your child no matter what you say.
Now...go away!
As before stated - fire them all - with a lifetime ban on teaching again. They have no place in the classroom - teaching kids to hate their country and hate each other.
Remember, under the rules of democrat party lawfare, democrats can break laws and never face punishment. Law breaking is only enforced against the enemies of the democrat party.
That is about 1-2% of all teachers.
That is about 1-2% of all teachers.
And conservatives STILL put their children in Government schools.
Time to fire a whole bunch of teachers.
Good, now we know who to fire.
In response, 5 million parents sign pledge to remove such educators and destroy their careers.
(hopeful thinking)
The current movement of parents confronting school boards needs to be maintained. And this needs to develop into a program to have conservatives run for these boards so as to closely monitor school administrators and teachers.
I believe a major problem is that the school systems have become top heavy in that there are too many non-teaching personnel. Go by a school administration building and you will find it packed. They will have hired someone to supervise every national and state mandate that comes down the pike, and each will develop their own kingdom. It is the nature of the beast. And I believe it is in these administration buildings that all this Marxist theory is taking shape. They have too much time on their hands.
Howard Zinn’s dead hand reaches out from the grave to pollute the minds of our children.
Good. Now they can be arrested and fired.
“Howard Zinn’s dead hand reaches out from the grave to pollute the minds of our children.”
It looks like certain factions in the education sector want to commit hari kari.
As the education sector becomes more ridiculous, it should make defunding them more plausible in the future.
5,000 teachers who are preaching to the choir.
If they had 500,000, I’d be worried. But 5,000 out of the 3.5 mm K-12 teachers across the country, especially when the activist 5K are in leftard areas? Not so much.
That’s probably about right, but I still want them all stripped of teaching licenses and then sent to jail for violating the law.
Remember what Reagan did to the air traffic controllers? Well, no Reagan right now, but a lot of PO’ed school boards.
That would be nice, but outside of intimacy between student and teacher, it can be extremely difficult to fire teachers nowadays. It’s dangerous.
The other option is for parents to pull their kids out and send them to private or home school.
It looks like we have over 5,000 monsters running around free in the country.
