Awe, that's cute Bonnie... touching.

 

So, explain it to us... define CRT in your own words (lmao) - GO!

 

No.

 

The truth of my statement obviously bothers you, but to be honest, you simply do not deserve an answer.

 

You use this tact constantly and in a deceitful way.

 

You are not looking for the reasons behind other posters thoughts, you just want to deflect as always

We're educators. CRT is, in fact, in schools.

BUCK, KINNETT Nov 06, 2021 

 

There are plenty of examples of critical race theory manifesting itself in public education: fifth graders told to celebrate Communism and brought through a mock black-power rally, or third graders mapping their racial identity and ranking themselves according to privilege. Even in Seattle’s math curriculum, concepts such as geometry and algebraic equations play second fiddle to identity, power, liberation, and activism.

 

The guiding questions encourage students to consider “How can we use math to measure the impact of activism?” One common textbook encourages teachers to, if they must read literature, do so through a Marxist or critical-race lens.

 

Deniers are correct in one narrow sense: Few if any students read the scholarly texts of Kimberlé Crenshaw or Richard Delgado in their classes. But even so, the language, the theory, the application, the ideas, the instructional practices, the arguments, and the policies of these scholars permeate almost every sphere of K–12 education.

 

To draw from Plato’s Allegory of the Cave: CRT is the light that casts the shadows on the wall, even if those looking at it are unaware of the source.

 

In many cases, denials come from naïveté. In others, when administrators or pundits say that schools are not teaching CRT, they are lying.

They keep saying CRT has never been taught in K-12 , how is it even a issue ?

 

"They keep saying"

 

There is your problem sir.

 

 

 

 

 

 

They just don’t know how to deal with the reality of parents pushing back against bad judgements in school districts and in blue states.    Like Virginia.

 

Surely it was ALL OF ‘DEM DERE RACIST WHITE WOMEN who gave the race to Winsome Sears, right?! Them uneducated WHITE SUPREMACISTS who elected Jason Miyares? Or our favorite, electing Youngkin was some evil PLOT developed by Democrats to prove to Republicans the 2020 election was legit.

 

Telling you, nobody expected what happened in Virginia, except every pissed-off parent in the state.

 

So our friends on the Left are of course pulling out the conspiracy theories to debunk what happened instead of learning from it.

 

 

 

HA HA HA HA HA HA HA

 

‘The goods’.

 

 

Judd Legum really went all in.

Seriously.

 

They do not understand how to deal with parents who are organizing and working almost like a PAC of their own. And that tells us all how little they think of parents, to assume their anger is fueled by conspiracy because they’re too stupid to know any better.

 

And they wonder why they lost last week in Virginia.

Are they the same parents Biden’s been paying not to work? If so, they’re just using their their free time to get some extra cash. It’s taking more and more to fill up your tank this year.

What Biden is doing is handcuffing the domestic US oil & gas industry and begging the Saudi's and Russian's w/OPEC+ to raise production.  While hurting the poorest of Americans the most that need to heat their homes this Winter along with higher prices for products that have high energy content. 

It sure ain't hurting me because I saw this clown car coming down the road about 8 moths ago and piled into really cheap energy and materials stocks and am doing pretty well.  Its just the beginning of a bull market in commodities.  So thank you Brandon!

Newly released internal emails reveal that the National School Boards Association coordinated with the White House and the Department of Justice before sending President Biden the notorious letter that compared concerned parents to domestic terrorists. Emails provided to Fox News show that NSBA had coordinated with the White House for weeks beforehand.

Viola Garcia, the NSBA president whom the Department of Education later named to a federal board, sent a memo to NSBA members on Oct. 11 (but dated Oct. 12), providing a timeline of the NSBA's interaction with the White House ahead of the letter to Biden, which the NSBA sent on Sept. 29.

Five days later, on Oct. 4, the DOJ issued a memo directing law enforcement to investigate threats to school boards. On Oct. 22, the NSBA issued an apology for the letter.

LETTER CALLING PARENTS DOMESTIC TERRORISTS HAS ‘THROWN GASOLINE’ ON THE FIRE, PARENT ACTIVIST SAYS

"Concern over the current climate for school board members is also a top priority as disruptions at school board meetings grow and members face growing threats," Garcia wrote at the time, according to the memo obtained by Parents Defending Education through a Freedom of Information Act request. "NSBA has been actively engaged with the White House, Department of Justice, Department of Homeland Security, Department of Education, Surgeon General, and other federal agencies on pandemic related issues."

"In the September 14, 2021 meeting of the [NSBA Organization of State Association Executive Directors] liaison group, they were informed there had been a meeting with White House staff that morning and that NSBA was preparing to send a letter to the President. Subsequently, on September 17, 2021, the interim Executive Director emailed notice to the state association executive directors that indicated a letter requesting federal assistance would be sent."

"In response to the letter sent by NSBA, on October 4, 2021 the Attorney General announced in a memorandum widely shared throughout the U.S. Department of Justice that he was ordering all U.S. Attorney Offices and local FBI offices to reach out to local and state law enforcement officials to coordinate efforts on this problem within 30 days of the memorandum," Garcia also noted.

This statement appears to contradict Attorney General Merrick Garland's testimony to Congress on Oct. 27. When Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., asked Garland if he had "second thoughts" following NSBA's apology for the letter, he said that the DOJ memorandum did not rely upon the letter.

 

 

Looks like someone lied to Congress.

I was told by the AP fact checker that this Letter doesn't exist.

...and if it did exist, it doesn't say that.

...and if it did say that, it's not what it means under context.
