Defying district leaders and disciplinary threats, about 100 educators took part Wednesday in a teach-in across Oakland Unified School District, bringing a curriculum focused on the Palestinian “liberation struggle” to students ages 4 to 18.

“A group of bullies called Zionists wanted our land so they stole it by force and hurt many people,” read the coloring book, which was suggested for students from transitional kindergarten to third grade.

Interesting coloring book. Would Nazi red be included in the pack of crayons?

“A group of bullies called Zionists...”

I guess ‘apartheidists’ is too confusing for young minds. Being a ‘bully’ is now a major offense in schools. Does the coloring book mention how all of the surrounding Arab nations attacked the newborn bully Zionists and managed to lose every time they’ve tried it?

This is the future of the Democrats, even as the older generation of Dems who depend on big donors are running scared.

Meanwhile less than one quarter of the students can read, write, or do arithmetic at grade level. Disgraceful.

[monkeyshine]

Pure indoctrinational propaganda.

Fire.
Them.
All.

People in the Bay Area voted for this big time.

Every one of these teachers should be fired immediately, but of course that won’t happen

This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)

The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.

Sickening.

[Uncle Miltie]

Do they teach rape?

Before or after the murder?

[jeffc]

Dozens of schools? That’s organized! I wonder if they will try to find out who did it...

Maybe these teachers should focus on doing their jobs.

How long will it be before these “teachers” assign “The poisonous mushroom” as a reading assignment?

Whoever came up with this antisemitic nonsense needs to be horsewhipped — preferably in public.

[Ban Draoi Marbh Draoi]

They need to be horsewhipped — and then sent to Gaza.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Basically what is being taught here in America is the exact lesson plan they are teaching kids in Gaza, to hate the Jews, hate Israel, call for their extermination..honest to God what the hell has happened to my country

[17th Miss Regt]

To show support for the Palestinian cause they should all have worn shirts that say “Islam is right about women.” I’ll bet that not one of them would get it.

[SpaceBar]

Julianna Margulies was right, just as Scott Adams was right.

Yup, what happens in Commifornia should stay in Kalifornia!
