More Racism in Virginia Schools

I hope Governor-elect Youngkin (R-VA) comes in and takes and axe to this sort of thing. I want to see liberal heads explode.

Parents Express Outrage At Alexandria Schools Peddling Racism (thefederalist.com)

They keep telling us that CRT isn’t taught.

Ummm…

One page on the school website, “Talking to Your Children About Racial Justice,” encourages parents to “let go of colorblindness” and “ensure your kids are aware of race.” Among other things, it promotes a Forbes article that suggests understanding “our country’s deeply rooted racism” with resources such as:

  • a Medium article encouraging readers to donate to their local Black Lives Matter chapter, ask their representatives to decriminalize marijuana, ask their representatives to ban voter ID laws, join their local “white space,” and ask their high school to teach a mandatory class on white privilege,
  • an article titled “White People Have No Culture,”
  • an article titled “Food Has Always Been Political,”
  • “Black Marxism: The Making of Black Radical Tradition” by Cedric Robinson,
  • “The Black Panthers: Vanguard of the Revolution,” a documentary about the militant Black Panthers group,
  • and the American Civil Liberties Union website.

Another ACPS page, simply titled “Teaching Racial Justice,” promotes “How To Be An Antiracist” by Ibram X. Kendi, in which Kendi argues, “The only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination. The only remedy to present discrimination is future discrimination.” The page also declares, “Racism against the Asian-American community is deeply ingrained in the fabric of our country.” Other resources it promotes include “White Fragility” by Robin DiAngelo, “White Rage” by Carol Anderson, “White Teachers Need Anti-Racist Therapy” by Bettina Love, and “Why Teaching Grit Is Inherently Anti-Black” by Bettina Love.

Liar, liar, pants on fire.

And, by the way, ugh! These people need to have restraining orders to keep them away from children and from education.
