The Biden administration said it was an 'error' to promote a handbook urging teachers to 'disrupt Whiteness and other forms of oppression' in their Department of Education guidance on reopening schools.

The government document published this year linked to the Abolitionist Teaching Network's 'Guide for Racial Justice & Abolitionist Social and Emotional Learning' in a section describing how schools are a 'microcosm of society' and conversations essential to 'race and emotional learning' should be 'anchor tenets' in schools.

But the Department of Education has now said it was wrong to link back to the group and distanced themselves from their policies.

It must not be polling well. “Mistakes were made… it must have been spell correct that inserted the link”.

This is just damage control. Don’t believe for a minute that they won’t attempt to come at this a different way.

The Biden Administration are despicable liars.

They were hoping nobody would notice the poison they’re subjecting the kids to.

I hope that from now on people with kids in school ask them every day what their teachers talked about. There should be a national campaign for this.

No, The devious Biden gang put info and links out there for their irrational followers to find, then draw more attention to the info and links by oops. Do not be fooled. This administration is not dumb. It is deliberately destructive.

“Whiteness and other forms of oppression”- so the mere existence of my skin color is somehow oppressing other people? In that case the #1 disruptor of whiteness is Donald Trump; he took his white skin and dyed it orange!

Well here is my thinking: Either they are not for this and were deficient in screening these materials, OR they ARE for it, but allowed the truth to be (inadvertently) revealed, exposing them to middle America .

Either way, pretty stupid.

The usual ploy from the left - change the name and deny it exists. Too late for that one.
