aculty will address how white teachers can engage in ethnic studies work and teaching through an understanding and reflection on their privilege, power, and positionality, an authentic definition of ethnic studies that maintains fidelity to the multidisciplinary field, two model lessons that address white supremacy culture, decentering whiteness, and an action plan for professional personal growth. Educators will learn about the importance of ethnic studies, for all youth, according to research, how to address, white grief, and fragility, how to nag navigate difficult conversations and build a healing classroom and engage into model lessons. That highlight white allies in our history who conspire with black indigenous and people of color to fight for justice in solidarity with by POC.


POC? This is a POS!

Wow. How many times did they have to mention “white” and “whiteness”?

Anyway, that old rule holds true once again: The first person to mention race is the racist.

In fairness, they should also fund: “How non-whites should interact with whites.”

I’ve only got 10 years left in public schools then I can retire. I’m in a relatively conservative state. Thank God I’m not in California. If US culture sucks, California is spearheading that suckage.

They are trying to tribalize whites to identify themselves based on the colour of their skin, just like blacks.

I have some back issues of MAD magazine if that might be of any help.

Italians spaghetti and stilettos (both kinds)
Blacks soulful and violent.
Mexicans comical as villains, also violent.
Polacks, dum bulbs.
Brits, snooty and arrogant... horseface, often queer.
Germans, blockheads, authoritarian. Sexually weird.
French, lazy, wine, food, horny.
Chinese... inscrutable. Comical.
And then I can also break this into subsets of Americana for even more hilarity!

I wonder if there will be corresponding sessions on how to succeed with hard work and perseverance regardless of race, creed, gender identification, etc.

Probably not.

I had a MAD issue that did Barney Miller (”Blarney Miller”) and it talked about the stereotypes on that show with Harris (Harass) as the jivy black, Fish (Fishface) the hypochondriac Jew, and Yemana (Yamaha) as the inscrutable Oriental.

Teachers and students can fix this by refusing to attend those classes. Keep refusing until the left can do nothing but drop their asinine racist demands

Racism, bias, and bigotry on full display. Any self-respecting teacher should quit and parents should remove their kids.

Makes me wonder what is going on at my own kid's uber-liberal school. They keep too much secret.

America is suffering the consequences of late-stage printed, fiat money.

Our government has basically been able to issue debt, and our Federal Reserve “print money” at will to fund 10,000 leftist social engineering schemes.

That’s coming to an end - I hope. It will be ugly, but it will kill the woke government parasites first.

Wouldn’t it be more prudent to just BAN all Minorities from the School System?

Can we have some training for the up and coming eternal victims on how to get along in a civilized society?

But that is the point. The liberals want a man to be judged by the color of his skin, not the content of his character!
