Mom gets standing ovation after calling for 'mass exodus' from public schools
"Standing up to these people doesn't seem to matter. I mean, we have – all of us – we've been at these school board meetings, we've been voicing our opinions, we're writing articles, we're emailing teachers – we're doing all that stuff. And they don't care. I'm like the only thing left to do is to just peace out." She added that "it has to be us doing it together" in order to "really send the message that you do not have the right to indoctrinate our children."

The wannabe police state is at it again.? Trying to label opponents of its goals and policies as domestic terrorists if we demonstrate or speak out about them.  Free speech, free association, assembly, and rights to petition government to address grievances are all being threatened by this dystopian government. The Orwellian language in this case by the regime regarding parents is over the top and the article is a great response to it.

Mom gets standing ovation after calling for 'mass exodus' from public schools


Concerned mom's comments come amid uproar over DOJ's announcement directing the FBI to investigate violence at school board meetings



Sam Dorman 1 hour ago


Florida mom Quisha King called for a "mass exodus" from the public school system , arguing that school systems left parents with no other choice for fighting left-wing ideas.

Her comments came during the annual Family Research Council's Pray Vote Stand Summit during a Thursday panel on " Fighting Indoctrination on a National Scale."

"I really think at this point the only thing to do is have a mass exodus from the public school system – that's it," King said. In response, she received prolonged applause, and many in the audience stood to their feet at the Leesburg, Virginia, event.

King previously drew national attention for her speech opposing critical race theory (CRT) in June. She works with the group Moms for Liberty, which is one of many battling CRT and other ideas across the nation. 

PARENTS CONTINUE BLASTING DOJ, SCHOOL BOARDS AMID PROBE INTO VIOLENT THREATS

"With this FBI thing, it just made me realize – what else are we supposed to do?" King asked. "Standing up to these people doesn't seem to matter. I mean, we have – all of us – we've been at these school board meetings, we've been voicing our opinions, we're writing articles, we're emailing teachers – we're doing all that stuff. And they don't care. I'm like the only thing left to do is to just peace out."

She added that "it has to be us doing it together" in order to "really send the message that you do not have the right to indoctrinate our children."

Her comments came amid an uproar over the Department of Justice's announcement that the FBI would investigate potential violence at school board meetings. Attorney General Merrick Garland's memo on the issue raised concerns as it appeared to be in response to a National School Boards Association (NSBA) letter suggesting that officials were encountering a form of "domestic terrorism."

"While spirited debate about policy matters is protected under our Constitution, that protection does not extend to threats of violence or efforts to intimidate individuals based on their views," Garland's memo states. 

Still, critics like Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo., have raised concerns about DOJ restricting free speech – pointing to language in NSBA's letter that disparaged anti-CRT efforts.

Good for her.  The less educated the American public is, the more likely it is to believe all the disinformation and conspiracy theories circulated on Social Media and FOX NEWS.  That will give the Trump*suckers more power and votes for their Pied Pipers.

In America, the Private school and home school students in general test better to get into college and get better grades there than public school graduates. So, the more that take that route the better off we will be.

I have to admit that I attended a Private High School in the city of my birth and youth, and do feel that the smaller classes, discipline, more focused individual attention and varied extra-curricular activities guided me to my academic standing, wherein I received a personal note from the Dean of John's Hopkins Medical School accepting me, but I chose to stay in Canada, and a different profession.  Although I never in my life owned or even wanted a gun or a rifle except a childhood water pistol and cap gun, I was my high school marksman champion using army rifles refurbished to shoot 22s, and I'm shown here receiving the trophy for it at the school's Games Day.  I suppose if I had ever been the right age to take part in a war where Canada was involved, I would have been a sniper.

I can talk about it, given that information. I don’t see a connection between a son in law of the federal attorney general and local school districts. I also don’t see the actual implementation of a CRT curriculum. I mean I don’t really agree with much of what CRT says, but I also cannot fathom why you would bother trying to teach something like in a K-12 school.

There is no great mystery to all this. Many "conservative" parents dont want their kids taught that America has been a racist country for almost all of its history, even if it is true. They would rather idiotically call everyone they dont like "communists".

They are not up front in calling it that.  There are none the less school districts that implement language from the theory in their overall curriculum.  Parents are upset because they have seen stuff their kids brought home from school and what they heard in distant learning during the earlier part of the pandemic.

Then the people who are complaining can claim that anything is CRT and they don’t need proof. Pretty convenient if your main goal is to just be outraged.

There are none the less school districts that implement language from the theory in their overall curriculum.

So vague as to be useless, and yet easily attacked. All you have to do is ignore context. You can teach kids about public transportation but just because they used to say Mussolini made the trains run on time that doesn’t mean you’re teaching kids Fascism.

Parents are upset because they have seen stuff their kids brought home from school and what they heard in distant learning during the earlier part of the pandemic.

How do any of those parents know what they are seeing or hearing is CRT? How many of these parents studied CRT at the few law schools that have courses on it? None, I’ll bet. I think it’s more likely that something ordinary in the curriculum is being called CRT and they’re just going with it.

I’m no racial studies scholar (and willing to admit it), but what little I know of CRT strikes me as being far too esoteric, abstract, and niche to ever be something that is taught in K-12.

What they might talk about is a history of racism in this country, and that’s legitimate. It’s also something that has been taught for generations. There also might be some discussions of why people are protesting. That seems to be fair game, too. I really doubt 8 year olds are going to be getting into how various institutions and laws result in unequal outcomes for people of color.

And if you think the curriculum means telling white children that they were born racist, some moron might do a thing like that, but that’s not what CRT is.

Black mother slams critical race theory at Florida school board meeting: 'Not teaching the truth'

Gov. DeSantis has proposed a rule banning ideas related to CRT in education

A Black mother slammed critical race theory (CRT) on Thursday, telling the Florida Board of Education that it was teaching hate and ruining the "greatest country in the world."

"Just coming off of May 31, marking the 100 years [since] the Tulsa riots, it is sad that we are even contemplating something like critical race theory, where children will be separated by their skin color and deemed permanently oppressors or oppressed in 2021," said mom Quisha King. 

King's comments came after Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis asked the school board to pass a rule banning CRT and associated ideas in schools.

"That is not teaching the truth," King added, "unless you believe that Whites are better than Blacks."

FLORIDA BOARD OF EDUCATION APPROVES DESANTIS' RULE BANNING CRITICAL RACE THEORY

She went on to dispute the idea that CRT was "racial sensitivity or simply teaching unfavorable American history or teaching Jim Crow history."

"CRT," she said, "is deeper and more dangerous than that. CRT and its outworking today is a teaching that there's a hierarchy in society where White male, heterosexual, able-bodied people are deemed the oppressor and anyone else outside of that status is oppressed."

"That's why we see corporations like Coca-Cola asking their employees to be less White, which is ridiculous. I don't know about you, but telling my child or any child that they are in a permanent oppressed status in America because they are Black is racist – and saying that White people are automatically above me, my children, or any child is racist as well. This is not something that we can stand for in our country."

Screen-Shot-2021-06-11-at-8.27.20-AM.jpg?ve=1&tl=1

Quisha King, Florida mom, speaks out against critical race theory.

"And don't take it from me. Look at the writers of these types of publications. Our ancestors – White, Black, and others – hung, bled, and died right alongside each other to push America towards that more perfect union. If this continues, we will look back and be responsible for the dismantling of the greatest country in the world by reverting to teaching hate and that race is a determining factor on where your destiny lies."

DESANTIS CONDEMNS CRITICAL RACE THEORY, SAYS IT WON'T BE TAUGHT IN FLORIDA CLASSROOMS

On Thursday, the board approved DeSantis' rule. It reads: "Instruction on the required topics must be factual and objective and may not suppress or distort significant historical events, such as the Holocaust, and may not define American history as something other than the creation of a new nation based largely on universal principles stated in the Declaration of Independence."

The rule came as part of a broader push by DeSantis and other Republicans to eliminate what they say are manifestations of critical race theory in schools. DeSantis' office told Fox News that the rule excludes the term "critical race theory" because "CRT isn't the only issue."

Arguments about CRT in history tend to revolve around assertions in the "1619 Project," a controversial piece that argues the institution of slavery was the nation's true founding. According to its author, it also casts doubt on how U.S. history has traditionally been taught by emphasizing slavery's influence on American society.

In a webinar last month , author Nikole Hannah Jones plainly stated that her project was intended to be supplemental to standard curriculum and that it was intentionally making an argument about how to view U.S. history….

Yes, critical race theory is being taught in public schools

While we all debate what critical race theory is and whether lawmakers should ban it from public schools, every honest person should agree on one thing: This theory is behind the curricula in school districts all over the country, shaping the minds of unsuspecting, malleable children.

Just this week, the Manhattan Institute’s Christopher Rufo reported that 30 public school districts in 15 states are teaching a book, Not My Idea , that tells readers that “whiteness” leads white people to make deals with the devil for “stolen land, stolen riches, and special favors.” White people get to “mess endlessly with the lives of your friends, neighbors, loved ones, and all fellow humans of color for the purpose of profit,” the book adds.

There are plenty of other examples that prove racial essentialism and collective guilt are being taught to young students. In Cupertino, California, an elementary school required third graders to rank themselves according to the “power and privilege” associated with their ethnicities. Schools in Buffalo, New York, taught students that “all white people” perpetuate “systemic racism” and had kindergarteners watch a video of dead black children, warning them about “racist police and state-sanctioned violence.” And in Arizona, the state’s education department sent out an “equity toolkit” to schools that claimed infants as young as 3 months old can start to show signs of racism and “remain strongly biased in favor of whiteness” by age 5.

If that’s not enough evidence, the nation’s largest teachers union outright endorsed the teaching of CRT to public school students in an agenda item it passed last week. The National Education Association vowed to “share and publicize” information “already available on Critical Race Theory — what it is and what it is not” and fight back against legislation that would ban CRT from school curricula.

Knowing full well that it cannot escape from the facts, the Left has taken to distorting reality. Many, including the head of the second-largest teachers union, have tried to claim CRT is not being taught in public schools at all.

“Let’s be clear: Critical race theory is not taught in elementary schools or high schools. It’s a method of examination taught in law school and college that helps analyze whether systemic racism exists,” Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers, said during a conference just days after the NEA passed its agenda item endorsing CRT.

Not My Idea , for example, adapted the idea that “whiteness” is a form of “stolen land and riches” from an original CRT legal text written by Cheryl Harris in 1993, as Rufo pointed out .

The purpose of CRT has always been the same: to teach people that America is an irreparably racist nation built on racist institutions upheld by racist people.…

WATCH: Candace Owens Makes The Best Case Ever For Pulling Kids Out Of Public Schools

Public school all across the country have abandoned prayer, rejected God, ushered in “transgender story hour”, and glorified terrorist organizations like BLM and ANTIFA.

In response to this madness, Candace Owens says it’s time to get children out of these schools as fast as possible. If not, our youth could be tainted for life with some of the most disgusting, Anti-American ideals that we have ever seen.

During a Sunday morning interview with Maria Bartiromo, Owens was very blunt, saying, “Pull your children out of public schools”

The time is now, remove your children from these indoctrination camps, they’re not learning to be smart, they’re not focused on hard academics, they are being brainwashed and and systematically controlled and what they want to produce, by the way, are failures, ” she added.

“Because it guarantees that they’ll have children that will grow up to be adults that are dependent on the government — and a totalitarian government that’s focused on Marxist principles and needs the people who are dependent on them,” she continued.

Watch her must-see rant below:

Owens went on to re-emphasize that “children are the future,” and that is exactly why tyrannical governments want to control them at every turn.

“You deny them access to your children and they can’t guarantee that they’re going to be able to exist and sustain itself,” Owens added…

The Anti-CRT Revolt: Banning a Racist Curriculum

img_2018.jpg?w=828 Suddenly it’s dawned on many people of good faith that our educational, business, and other institutions have been commandeered by adherents to critical race theory (CRT), which teaches that all social interactions and outcomes must be viewed through the lens of racial identity and exploitation. In fact, it teaches that racism is endemic, whether conscious or unconscious, among people deemed to have privilege . They are labeled as oppressors, especially anyone with white skin. Furthermore, CRT holds that racism is systemic , and therefore the “system”, meaning all of our institutions and social arrangements, must be radically transformed. Some or all of these tenets are taught to our children in public and private schools, and they are embedded in anti-bias and diversity training delivered to employees of government, non-profits, and private companies.
