    Third graders reportedly made to ‘deconstruct’ their identities,

    rank themselves according to power and privilege

    An elementary school in Cupertino, California was reportedly caught brainwashing its third-grade students with the illiberal, racist doctrines of critical race theory.


    Whistleblower documents provided to filmmaker, writer, and researcher Christopher Rufo of the Discovery Institute show that the children were forced to “deconstruct their racial and sexual identities” and “rank themselves according to their ‘power and privilege.'”


    “[A] third-grade teacher at R.I. Meyerholz Elementary School began the lesson on ‘social identities’ during a math class. The teacher asked all students to create an ‘identity map,’ listing their race, class, gender, religion, family structure, and other characteristics,” Rufo reported Wednesday.


    “The teacher explained that the students live in a ‘dominant culture’ of ‘white, middle class, cisgender, educated, able-bodied, Christian, English speaker[s],’ who, according to the lesson, ‘created and maintained’ this culture in order ‘to hold power and stay in power.'”


    The teacher basically taught the children that normal, everyday white people — particularly the ones who are Christian — are bad.

    Note that liberals rarely if ever comment on critical (race) theory. Like the riots from May last year on.
    Tradition is not the worship of ashes, but the preservation of fire. ― Gustav Mahler

    You do have skin in the game. Everyone does. This kind of indoctrination impacts society as a whole. That's why they are doing this.

    Lol. Who was it that said "If I'd known how fun Grandkids were, I'd have had them first."
