    Thousands of teachers to protest countrywide over anti-critical race theory legislati

    Thousands of teachers to protest countrywide over anti-critical race theory legislation.....

    Thousands of teachers are expected to gather in more than 115 cities starting Friday as part of a nationwide "teach truth" protest against anti-critical race theory legislation being proposed by state lawmakers.


    The "Days of Action" protest, which runs from Aug. 27 to Aug. 29, is part of the Teach Truth pledge that has been signed by more than 6,600 teachers.



    It reads: "We, the undersigned educators, refuse to lie to young people about U.S. history and current events."


    The protests are a response to lawmakers in at least 27 states introducing or implementing legislation that would require history teachers to skip lessons on the role of racism and oppression in the United States, ABC News reported.



    Critical race theory is a broad set of ideas about systemic bias and racism in U.S. history. It argues that the legacy of white supremacy remains embedded in society through laws and institutions.


    Since then, parents have shown up at school board meetings across the country, demanding their children not be taught anything remotely having to do with critical race theory. They've also bombarded local lawmakers and have held their fair share of protests......snip~

    In Philadelphia , teachers, students, parents, and other activists will be gathering at the President's House, which was occupied by George Washington from 1790 to 1797, to tell stories about the slaves he owned and how they played a role in the creation of the nation. Washington kept nine slaves in the executive mansion. By the time of his death, he had more than 100 slaves......snip~

    In his will, written several months before his death in December 1799, George Washington left directions for the emancipation of all the slaves that he owned, after the death of Martha Washington. Washington's slave census in this 1799 will and testament. Washington was not the only Virginian to make provisions to free his slaves during this period.



    So much for these leftists and their so called version of truth!

    That's what we want, too. For teachers to teach our nation's children the truth and the facts, and not to impose their political views on young impressionable minds.

    Looks like there will always be a problem with the truth due to leftists teachers not knowing the truth. There is good news tho.....Public Schools are starting to have a problem with filling up their classrooms.

    They want to teach their agenda--and they want to judge our ancestors by today's standards. It's ludicrous.

    Parents need to get organized and fight CRT on the grounds that it Violates The Civil Rights Act and other Federal Codes of Law based on the creation of a hostile education environment that promotes racial discrimination and racial stereotypes.

    There are legal grounds for this because previous laws were based on Equal Protection, not pitting one race against another.

    We also need to get parents organized in promoting more school choice and accountability. COVID has them paying closer attention like never before so this is good timing!

    They are doing it and even chasing out leftists School Board members. Now they need to do the same with Town and City Councils.

    Solution: Raise your kids in Red States and make sure they are pro-school choice.

    Ah, the Trump cultists are really going hog wild with their cancel culutre.

    How do we know this? Because nobody is teaching CRT. They're all lying about that, and they all know they're lying.

    So why do they lie? Because they want all discussion of racism made illegal, and because Stalinsts can't help but want to censor. They tell a big lie that any discussion of racism is CRT, then make a law saying it's illegal to teach CRT. That way, they can jail anyone disucssing racism.
