The election made Southlake one of the first places in the country where candidates running on an anti-critical race theory platform have taken a school board majority.

n Southlake, Texas, where parents have been feuding for more than a year over a school district’s proposal to address racism, candidates supported by a conservative political action committee won majority control of the school board Tuesday, clearing the way for the board to officially kill the polarizing diversity plan.

A special election to replace a board member of the Carroll Independent School District who resigned this summer definitively shifted the balance of power to opponents of the proposed Cultural Competence Action Plan. Voters in the affluent suburb northwest of Dallas delivered a landslide victory Tuesday to Andrew Yeager, who campaigned against the district’s plan for new diversity training programs and changes to the curriculum.

You can see NBC “News” hasn’t learned a damn thing with the biased and misleading headline. I’m happy to celebrate some great election victories especially the super-local ones. But make no mistake the enemies of America are still very much among us.

At this point local elections are more important than national elections.

CRT is the absolute opposite of Christianity which teaches one to love their neighbor as themselves and that there is no male nor female, no slave nor freeman because we are all one in Christ.

This is a victory for love over hate.

The Left has the wrong idea about what Diversity means.
Left: Diversity is about Race, Gender and Sexual Orientation.
Right: Diversity is about viewpoints from all sides of the issues, regardless of Race etc.

The Left claims racism is now considered diversity.

I said for quite some time that the need to change in public education should start locally by voting out the left-wing bureaucrats and getting rid of “teachers who teach trash and trying to indoctrinate children

See what can happen when conservatives get uncomfortable and finally do something besides wait on someone else? I am sorry to believe that conservatives are just too comfortable to take action. The sit on their asses until the right to sit on their asses is taken away.

“At this point local elections are more important than national elections”.

That’s right. Concentrate at the bottom and work the way up while doing everything possible to win everything in between the bottom and top.
