Here we go again.

 

Yesterday it was how many boys have changed their gender for the sole purpose of participating in girls sports. Today its how did the parents get the grades.

 

I'm seeing a trend ...

 

Yeah there are a lot of insecure people in the GQP.

Such a funny man you are. 
 

May I remind you brought up hearsay that somehow the grades of the original designees were obtained nefariously because the people involved were white. 
 

Your entire conjecture is somehow this was a racist incident. If you take the adjectives of the color of skin out of the story, the outcome remains the same. 
 

But for somehow who only views and judges people based on the color of their skin as you do, that’s the only fact that matters in any of this.. the color of ones skin. 
 

and yes, I will take the judgement of the superintendent of the school system over yours, and only my bring up the color of his skin because that determines motive in your eyes. 
 

Again, as any racist does, you ascribe actions and motives based on skin color, so I wonder what his motivation was to make the judgement he did. 


Ha - I asked if the grades were made public - you inferred they were - I will quote you:

 

“They got them as the grades are published for the designees, and how they were determined.”

 

I then asked you to prove the grades were posted.

 

And it seems you’re missing the entire point - two black girls won with honors and two WHITE parents demanded a recount resulting in the school to add two white valedictorian and salutatorian.

 

Stop trying to white wash the action of the PARENTS.

I don't like the idea of teaching CRT in schools. But, another question needs to be asked of the school administrators.  What are you taking out to put this on?

 

Quote

Frank Xu, Board President of the Californians for Equal Rights foundation, joined the rally to oppose the district spending $77 million on teaching the district’s student to be antiracist through an “ethnic studies program.”

 

$77,000,000.00?  Really?  And it will be a graduation requirement which insinuates there will be class time devoted to it.  Schools don't have unlimited funds or time.  Our schools are having a hard enough time teaching the 3 Rs.  Get better at that before trying to teach unnecessary stuff.

You sniveling little man. 
 

my exact quote. 
 

“they got them as the grades were posted, prove they were not” 
 

see I played your game, and you lost. You could not prove they were not posted, so therefore it must be true. 
 

I am out rest of the night, will leave you with this last thought. How does your concours deal with the fact that you see everything g through the lens of skin color? Does  it hurt  to admit you are in fact racist?

You said the grades were posted - couldn’t back it up - and keep calling me a racist - but we all know who here has issues with their true self.

 

Have fun tonight! 

 

PS: Congratulations to Ikeria Washington and Layla Temple valedictorian and salutatorian at West Point High School in Mississippi.

 

👏👏


Don't let the racism take away from your shine.

It seems like half the opponents to the state bills say that CRT isn’t happening in schools, and the other half says it’s happening and it’s good.

 

They sound very confused.

In other words, young minds will continue to do what they've always done.

 

In the 1850s, young minds thought slavery was bad and got it overturned. Hated baby boomers thought racism and unfair housing and education was bad and they marched/protested and got some things changed.  Young people thought gay discrimination was bad and protested etc and now they got their own month, can marry etc.  AND they were able to do it without CRT being force fed to them in school.

Critical Race Theory Opponents Win Board Elections at Nation’s Top High School. 

 

“Parents across the country have organized against schools’ embrace of ‘woke’ standards and practices. Anti-critical race theory candidates have won school board seats in two Dallas suburbs. Parents in Indiana criticized one school district’s promotion of racially divisive resources, including works from ‘antiracism’ scholar Ibram X. Kendi and an article on how white women play a ‘role in racial (in)justice.'”

And that is how people learn.  By asking questions not having an agenda pushed on them.   Why are you so in love with CRT?  What do you know about it?  What do you like about it?

Indianapolis Police Officer Sues NFL for Defamation After They Misrepresent Shooting

I am glad the cop is doing it and it should be interesting how it ends up because the NFL can't admit any fault or they will really open themselves up to the rest of the people on the list.

A SPORTS TALE FOR OUR TIMES

 

DeMatha Catholic High School is the dominant basketball power in the Washington, D.C. area. It is one of the top basketball programs in the country.

 

Mike Jones, a Black, has coached DeMatha’s basketball team for the past 19 years. In May, he abruptly announced he was leaving to become an assistant coach at Virginia Tech.

 

Two days later, DeMatha named Pete Strickland as its interim basketball coach. He will be in charge next season.

 

Strickland is White. He is also the obvious choice to fill in.

 

Strickland played at DeMatha and was an assistant coach at the school under the legendary Morgan Wooten. He then played point guard for Pitt.

 

Strickland’s college coaching career includes more than half a decade as head coach at Coastal Carolina. He also coached Ireland’s national basketball team from 2016 to 2018. Most recently, he served as athletic director at St. John’s Catholic Prep in Maryland.

 

Strickland’s DeMatha roots are so deep that he recruited Mike Jones, the departing coach, to play at the school. Then, as an assistant coach at Old Dominion University, he recruited and coached Jones again.

 

Strickland’s choice also made sense because he is qualified to teach high school English. DeMatha requires its coaches to teach. There was an opening in the school’s English department. Strickland will fill it. (His wife also teaches at DeMatha.)

 

It may also be worth noting that, in a prior stint as an English teacher at DeMatha, Strickland assigned a star basketball player who later played in the NBA to read James Baldwin’s “The Fire Next Time” as a makeup lesson for missing an assignment. The former player says this was the first time he had read a book by an African American author and it had a profound effect on him.

 

Yet, the selection of Strickland as interim coach triggered a racial firestorm. The Washington Post reports that some former DeMatha basketball players and some parents of current ones are enraged that DeMatha bypassed several current Black assistant coaches and instead “hired a 64 year-old White man who hasn’t coached [in] three years.”

 

One parent complained:

 

It’s nobody on this earth that can tell me that if there were five White [assistant] coaches there that they would go find a 70-year-old Black coach to coach them without even talking to the white boys that were there. That’s not happening in America.

 

Notice how, in addition to getting Strickland’s age wrong, this parent strips out everything except race from consideration. Strickland’s obvious qualifications and close ties to DeMatha are irrelevant to the discussion (if one can call it that).

 

The selection of Strickland comes on the heels of DeMatha’s decision to bring back Bill McGregor, another White in his 60s, to coach the football team. He succeeds Elijah Brooks, a Black, who left to become an assistant coach at the University of Maryland.

 

McGregor is perhaps the most successful high school football coach in the history of the D.C. area. Only an out-and-out racist could have a problem with his hire.

 

Some of the people who complained to the Post said they feared that DeMatha is doing a “reset” to appease White donors and change the image of a school located in a largely Black area. One former player called this a move to “Make DeMatha Great Again.”

 

But this claim can’t be reconciled with DeMatha’s recent selection of a Black to be its dean of students.

 

{snip}

 

That’s why I view this story as a tale for our times. It’s all about “equity,” defined as stripping everything except race from decisions about who gets what in America today.

Thank god the Federalist opined on this issue

 

 

How would you know what they 'opined' ?

 

You certainly didn't read the article.

 

So shallow.  

 

You complain when I don't answer you, you ignore when I show you that your original post was wrong.

 

You have no standards at all..........😆

The line in the federalist article is the defining comment for our media now- if they were trying to create racial division how would they act differently? The media no longer reports the news, they try to create it in their image.

'White Rage' Is All the Rage as CNN Host Shows the Memo Has Gone Out

 

Apparently, the new rage with the liberal media is “white rage.”

 

I touched upon it earlier in my piece on Greg Gutfeld’s monologue and his takedown of Joint Chiefs Chair Gen. Mark Milley’s usage of the term and CRT. Milley said he wanted to understand the term, indeed understand it in the context of the Capitol Riot which he was clearly attributing to “white rage,” despite no evidence that the rioting had anything to do with race.

 

This is our Chairman of the Joint Chiefs saying this and that should concern us all. Because there’s a demonizing going on here, not just on the basis of politics, but race as well. And it’s disturbing that there’s clearly an effort to insert both race and politics into the military in a way that could be very harmful and hurt our readiness to deal with military threats.

 

But this isn’t just Milley pushing this term. It’s a term that suddenly seems to be taking off in usage in liberal media, in part, as I said, to put a further demonization on those who rioted at the Capitol but to also attack in general people on the right.

 

Listen as CNN’s Brianna Keilar tries to get Rep. Michael Waltz (R-FL) to affirm the term, asking wouldn’t he call what happened at the Capitol “white rage?”

 

 

No, I would call that ascribing a racist term to the actions. That’s racist. Not to mention there were folks there who weren’t white, like John Sullivan who was charged. What did many of the people being white have to do with anything?

 

This is troubling stuff when you get “journalists” doing racist things like this. She’s also just a small step from demonizing the military there as well in her comments. We’ve already seen that leading to rooting out “extremist” (by whose definition) thought in the military. Waltz doesn’t fall for it and doesn’t go there, while still condemning the actions.

 

But Keilar shows that the memo has gone out.

 

 

At what point did it become acceptable to demonize people based on race? Isn’t that what we’re supposed to be fighting against?
