Combating imaginary racism with actual racism??

PLAINLY ILLEGAL RACE DISCRIMINATION:

 

The City of Portland, Oregon plans to spend millions in federal funds on “struggling artists of color.” 

 

Note that Portland isn’t talking about giving money to just any struggling artist. Whites don’t count, no matter how much they are struggling and no matter how artistically gifted.

 

This kind of blatant race discrimination isn’t going to stop until lawsuits—lots of ‘em—are brought. To do that here, we need a struggling artist of pallor in Portland who might be willing to be the plaintiff.

Oregon removes reading, writing, math requirements for high school graduation

The Governor of Oregon has signed a bill into law that removes all requirements for high school students to demonstrate their proficiency in reading, writing, and math. We’ll get to the supposed “reasoning” behind this legislation in a moment, but it’s first worth mentioning the timing. As the Oregonian found out, this law has actually been in place for a while now. Governor Kate Brown signed the bill back on July 14th, but nobody knew about it until this past week. The reason for that is that the Governor didn’t hold a signing ceremony, there was no press release about it and the bill wasn’t entered into the legislative database until July 29th. At that point, journalists finally noticed it began writing about it.

 

For the next five years, an Oregon high school diploma will be no guarantee that the student who earned it can read, write or do math at a high school level.

 

Gov. Kate Brown had demurred earlier this summer regarding whether she supported the plan passed by the Legislature to drop the requirement that students demonstrate they have achieved those essential skills. But on July 14, the governor signed Senate Bill 744 into law.

 

Through a spokesperson, the governor declined again Friday to comment on the law and why she supported suspending the proficiency requirements.

 

Under what circumstances would the state legislature pass a law and the governor sign it without trumpeting their accomplishment to the public? And why did it take so long to enter it into the public database? We don’t know the Governor’s reasoning because when asked about it, she declined to comment.

 

As to the delay in updating the database, there was at least an answer provided to the media. The secretary of the state Senate’s office said that a key staffer who is responsible for dealing with the Governor’s office and updating the legislative database “was experiencing medical issues” during the fifteen days of silence about this bill. But that answer doesn’t hold water either because several bills were signed on July 19th and entered into the database the same day.

 

What are these people trying to hide? Is it possible that they’re ashamed of what they’ve done and were hoping the public wouldn’t notice? Given the nature of what they’ve done, that’s at least a reasonable guess.

 

As to the reason for dropping all of these critical standards, it’s based on allegations of racism, of course. The governor’s deputy communications director said that dropping the requirements “will benefit Oregon’s Black, Latino, Latina, Latinx, Indigenous, Asian, Pacific Islander, Tribal, and students of color.”

Millions?  Hot damn!  I'm moving to Portland and taking up painting.  I just figure I need a crack pipe...

I'm so glad educators are preparing students for life as a generation of multi-cultural diverse losers as they will be unprepared for the challenges and competition presented in the global market place against student from other countries that are proficient at every major subject.  So what's the point of sending your kids to Oregon public schools other than have them participate in social indoctrination activities?  The only people dumber than the elected officials are the people electing them.  This is kind of the plot to Idiocracy.

The worst thing about this study is they went straight from small correlation to complete causation. If they were to show one umpire is garbage and is racist I might believe it but this study says that one pitch every game is worse for minorities vs whites. No discussion of arm angles, pitch speed, catcher position, all things that effect close calls. This was a "study" with a decision made and then research to prove it.

VIRGINIA: As Public Pushback Mounts, McAuliffe Buries ‘Equity’ Agenda.

 

Virginia Democratic gubernatorial nominee Terry McAuliffe quietly removed race-focused language from his campaign website’s education page as voters pushed back on “equity initiatives” in public schools.

 

McAuliffe has made “equity” a chief theme in his campaign for a second term in the governor’s mansion, tying racism to issues such as education, the economy, and criminal justice. In mid-August, however, McAuliffe removed his pledge to “eliminate racial disparities” from the top of his campaign’s K-12 education page, screenshots reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show. The Democrat also nixed the term “equitable” from the top of four issue pages on his campaign site.

 

The move came just weeks after a Trafalgar Group poll showed McAuliffe with a narrow lead over Republican Glenn Youngkin. It also came as Democrats in Virginia and across the country expressed concern over “equity initiatives” in public schools. In Loudoun County, for example, parent groups have collected thousands of signatures to recall school board members who have endorsed critical race theory.

 

The changes to McAuliffe’s campaign site suggest the Democrat is attempting to play both sides of the issue.

 

 

And:

 

McAuliffe has received nearly $1 million from the National Education Association and American Federation of Teachers, the nation’s two largest teachers’ unions. One week before the NEA contributed $400,000 to McAuliffe’s campaign, union president Becky Pringle said her members “are not going to be afraid” to teach critical race theory in schools, because they “know that to not teach it, we are not telling the truth.”

 

 

 

Democrats and the NEA — but I repeat myself — aren’t about to give up on CRT no matter how well they scrub their campaign websites.

'It's segregation': Bill Maher slams NFL for playing black national anthem at games as he warns having one anthem for white people and one for black is dangerous

by Matt McNulty

 

Bill Maher took aim at the NFL for playing Lift Every Voice and Sing - otherwise known as the black national anthem - at Thursday's game between the Dallas Cowboys and Tampa Bay Buccaneers.The Real Time with Bill Maher host warned that having two different national anthems, based on race, was a slippery slope to 'segregation' but 'under a different name,' he said.'I think when you go down a road where you're having two different national anthems, colleges... have different graduation ceremonies for black and white, separate dorms... this is what I mean: segregation,' Maher said

HEATHER MAC DONALD: Ripping Off the Veil. 

 

By firing nearly half its musicians in order to “prioritize diversity,” a British classical music organization exposes the sordid business behind all racial-preference regimes.

I like how no one is taking responsibility for this. The lower people are blaming the government officials and the government officials are blaming the musicians.

This one is even richer.   https://www.city-journal.org/classical-music-under-racial-attack-part-1

 

I especially liked this quote:

 

Quote

Juilliard’s head of music theory wrote his colleagues that “it’s high time the whiteness of music theory is examined, critiqued and remedied.”

 

Music theory is used extensively in jazz which was invented by blacks.
