Critical Race Theory – Unpacking My Stack of Stuff. Part 2

Ashleigh CRT instructor

Yet another tranche of posts (and there will be quite a few!) on Critical Race Theory. You know the philosophy embraced by the Left and Left-leaning Republicans. The ones who flippantly say “Free Speech!” to excuse it.

We’re referring to those that have decided that “Politics is downstream from Culture” need not apply to them because they’ve decided they won’t be around long enough FOR it to apply. Like NH Governor Chris Sununu, who still won’t admit to CRT’s racist-Marxist roots.

Hey, Calvin, Edie, and Leo – do YOU like being called RACISTS simply because your skin is white?

Apparently, Daddy doesn’t care – and he sure doesn’t care about The Grandson, either (Baby Huey is making this personal – I can play that game as well; let’s see if he’ll veto the budget simply because the Legislature doesn’t want to allocate tax money to help race-baiters and Marxists continue to pervert the culture).

Can we get him to listen to FL Gov. Ron DeSantis who has figured out this racket to make America hate itself?

 Florida man who indicated he was a member of the U.S. military embarked on an angry rant at an area school district after it unveiled its new equity statement. A portion of the new statement decries “white advantage” and vows to dismantle racism and “other systems of oppression and inequity.” District parents have been flooding the district with complaints about the racially divisive language used in the new equity statement, which was approved earlier in May, and now the district is considering pulling back on using the controversial terminology.

In a now-viral video, an unidentified man can be seen shouting at members of Palm Beach County’s school district over the district’s current mandatory mask policy and its equity statement. The man, who can be seen on video speaking during the public comments section of the Wednesday night meeting, can be heard saying, “The school board recently adopted an equity statement. Why? Your only job is education, not indoctrination.”

In Thomas Pyle Middle School’s “social justice” class course curriculum, there is a slide titled “What is systemic racism?” in which students are shown a pyramid slide depicting “Differences between overt and covert hateful white supremacy.” According to the pyramid, “Make America Great Again” is an example of “covert white supremacy” that is “socially unacceptable.” The phrase is ranked on a pyramid just below “racial slurs.”

Examples of other unacceptable covert “white supremacy” include thinking “but we’re just one human family,” “colorblindness,” “cultural appropriation,” “celebration of Columbus Day,” “police murdering POC [people of color],” and “bootstrap theory.”

That’s the nice part – go to the link and really see what this Minneapolis is pushing….

And now the medical community wishes to discriminate the healthcare system based on your skin color:

Race has always been used by the left and the Democrats to divide us. As we’ve seen all too clearly in recent weeks, this strategy has now achieved critical mass – and it’s moved into health care, the largest sector of the economy and one with critical influence on people’s lives — and even survival…shocking new example of overt racism that proposes to remake health care on the basis of Critical Race Theory. On April 10, 2021, the prestigious medical journal The Lancet – one of the most prominent scientific journals in the world – published an article titled “Racism is the public health crisis.” You read it right: The most important public health crisis.

…Less than two weeks ago, it was reported that this policy of giving preferential medical treatment to individuals with the preferred racial or ethnic background – Blacks and “Latinx” patients – over Whites is going into practice, at Brigham and Women’s Hospital in Boston..

Back of the bus…except now it’s “back of the gurney”. Back to the Education system:

Two Roosevelt University professors who also serve on the Oak Park and River Forest High School school board were caught on an open Zoom call bragging about how they promote Marxist re-organization of American society to their college students….Gina Harris and Ralph Martire said they were proud to advocate for so-called “social justice” Marxist economic concepts. “I mean, it’s all social justice. All day, every day, I get to talk about the things I love. I’m really living the life over here,” Harris said.  She called social justice “a part of everything,” adding that she was teaching “middle school theory and practice” to future K-12 teachers at Roosevelt.

…The duo both hold duel roles as school board members and in positions of power.  Harris, in addition to teaching at Maywood Elementary, is a liaison officer between the nation’s largest teacher’s union, the National Education Association, as well as its state affiliate the Illinois Education Association.

…Even so, wokeness is not the answer. Wokeness promotes an embrace of racial essentialism, collective guilt and segregation — the very demons that were exorcised by the civil rights movement. Worst of all, the woke movement would see these evils sanctioned by the state.

To be clear, wokeness invokes the popular acclaim of Martin Luther King Jr’s dream, even as it promotes the very opposite of that dream. King’s lofty goal was to make qualities like race incidental — not essential — to the Western mindset. Wokeness, by contrast, makes race central to the discussion. Unchallenged, wokeness will prove disastrous for America.

And we’re back to NH Governor Chris Sununu getting schooled:

“The voters have come together in record-breaking numbers to restore unity,” said Hannah Smith, who won a seat on the Carroll school board. “By a landslide vote, they don’t want racially divisive critical race theory taught to their children or forced on their teachers. Voters agreed with my positive vision of our community and its future.”

Also notable, the PAC organized to back the anti-CRT campaign raised more than $200,000. For school board elections.

In New Hampshire, Republicans in the House are pushing HB 544, which would prohibit government agencies and contractors from using critical race theory-based materials and other “divisive content” in their curriculum or training.

In Manchester, for example, the [Manchester, NH] school board ordered employees of an afterschool program to take anti-whiteness training that declared all white people are “oppressors” and their “whiteness” makes them part of “white supremacy.” After the content of the training was questioned, the school system reversed course and declared it optional.

But ONLY after the Board’s whiteness hating ways were exposed. What a bunch of lily white spineless toadies in assuming that if THEY were guilty, every other Person of Pallor is guilty as well. Again, since when was guilt established by an arbitrary classification of being involuntarily being put into a group to be judged guilty for something you haven’t done???  Such a model of students – a School Board participating in stereotyping others simply because of skin color??  They’re RAAAACISTS!!!

This one is pretty good AND a good lesson for Parents where this evil nonsense is popping up – District calls itself Racists, Parents file a civil rights grievance for its racist ways, and now it’s under Federal investigation. Most of these race-baiter and self-loathers should really THINK about what they’re saying – maybe they come to their senses:

The advocacy organization Parents Defending Education recently filed a federal civil rights complaint against the Webster Groves K-12 school district in Missouri for racial discrimination, according to the complaint obtained by The College Fix. In June 2020, district Superintendent John Simpson posted to the school’s blog site claiming that the school district contributed to inequitable systems which disadvantaged its black students. It was part of a blog post lamenting the death of George Floyd.

“I’m not saying that all police officers are bad or all educators are bad, but they (we) operate within systems that, by their outcomes, clearly privilege one race over another. It’s undeniable,” Simpson wrote.

YAY! WE”RE RACISTS! And then he doubles down:

“As your superintendent and as a white man, I must hold myself and our school system to a greater level of accountability in how we see and support our Black children, staff and parents and how our work is leading to the dismantling of the inequitable systems and structures within our district.”

Wait until he figures out that it was a bunch of hooey when he stands before a judge….

Parents Defending Education argues in its March 30 complaint that his statement should count as an admission that Webster Groves violated Title VI of the Civil Rights act of 1964. That section of the act mandates that

“no person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

Tons more to come as the self-guilters, pop culture riders, race-baiters and grifters (see image, topmost) just can’t help themselves – but as you can see above, many of us Normals are no longer putting up with this crapola. Take lessons from these posts and if you see this evilness popping up in your District, one of these techniques will help shut it down (or get the REALLY guilty ones tossed).
