He can say whatever he wants. He can piss off every suburban Mom in VA. He can threaten, lie and dictate all he wants. The fix is in.

Virginia has too many White teachers.

The NFL has too many Black players. The NBA has too many Black players.

When are the Rats going to do something about this?????

Move the excess Blacks to tennis and the NHL.

Diversifying teachers would mean adding some straights and conservatives.

Go for it.

And if they are to represent America, at least 1/3 conservatives up from 0.

I have trouble believing there are bunches of unemployed non-white teachers just sitting around collecting dust in Virginia. Are non-whites being kept out of teaching, or are they not entering the field in the first place? I’m going to guess it’s the latter.

Teaching is NOT an 8 hour 5 day a week job. It’s hard work, constant pressure not to just teach, but classroom management, reports, emails, conferences, etc all combine to make Teaching an extremely STRESSFUL job!

This kind of rhetoric is absolutely vile and disgusting, I’m just gob smacked at how clueless or complacent people have become.

It’s one thing to suggest that the education field needs more “diversity”, but that isn’t what’s going on here - and that hasn’t been what’s going on for some time. At some point the narrative became that Whitey needs to be purged or eliminated. This is exclusionary rhetoric, there ain’t nothing “inclusive” about it.

One odious implication (out of many) is that instruction or learning must be race based. That black students are somehow incapable of learning from a white teacher? Another is that certain behaviors that lead to successful outcomes are “White Supremacy”.

This kind of shit is just pure poison, I know McAulliffe is a good little foot soldier and just following orders by dutifully repeating it, but it needs to he rejected as the nonsense that it is.

It wasn’t all that long ago the taxpayer was regaled with tales about the “Global Economy” and how students need to be prepared to compete, “Lifelong Learning” and envision the future and all sorts of euphemistic catch phrases. Now there is this top down push to eliminate gifted learning programs, they don’t dare even fail anybody in some districts, despite complete illiteracy of the “graduating” class. Some of these kids don’t know what bathroom to use. Meanwhile on the other side of the world 5th graders are taking Calculus.

With “friends” like this, the only rational conclusion is this stuff is being deployed by saboteurs. If it were designed by an enemy, how could you tell the difference? They WANT people to be stupid and literally unable to think.

The view is non white students can only learn from teachers who are like them ethnically and culturally.

Very true. A good teacher is a blessing, and the students he/she teaches are given a great step ahead in life.

Pick up your race cards at the door as you enter.

“. yet 80% of the teachers are white. We all know what we have to do in schools to make everybody comfortable. So let’s diversify.”

Switch “black” and “white” in his statement, and you would be saying we should get rid of black teachers because they don’t make people comfortable. So if students are racist, and can’t be comfortable with a white teacher, we should fire the teacher? Wouldn’t it be better to convince the uncomfortable students that they should stop being racist? WTF is wrong with this country where a nationally known candidate and former Governor can say something like this????

If that is true then black teachers should not teach white kids because it can be argued that the black teachers have no understanding of the white experience, especially the experience of poor and working class whites.
