An end to neo-segregation in Wellesley Public Schools:

A middle-school teacher said a specific 'healing space' was 'for our Asian/Asian-American and Students of Color, *not* for students who identify only as White.'

Wellesley Public Schools will now ensure that all are welcome. https://t.co/fWtQk23x59

All Lives Matter - why isn't this guy leading the discourse? There's nothing i disagree with. I hate it when people try to say or act like racism is only historical. But it's also only 1 horse in the injustice derby.

really gets at how stupidly simplistic and hurtful some teachers are handling this curricula; in actuality a lot of kids in our multi-culti societies who accept immigrants don't fit in one tribe

it seems like a lot of it is written with ADOS in mind. Well, even not all people with dark skin are ADOS, but it's like they're the privileged ones in CRT when it's done poorly.

Cicero said "Who stands to benefit?"

If stuff like this were actually meant to empower "people of color," why would rich white people be the ones pushing it?

But wait, that's not all. Boy you GenX and younger peeps are really in for some fun with the next generation coming up. How many can read or do math? It's gonna be a crap shoot. (Lucky for us boomers, we'll all be dead)

The amount of students who are chronically absent has doubled during the pandemic and "remote learning."

Some staggering numbers. In Oakland, 43% of students missed more than 10% of school days last year. 45% in Pittsburgh.https://t.co/Ogt8ttshGN

A teacher at the school, Kali Fontanilla, publicized the course's curriculum after realizing her students, who were learning English as a second language, were struggling with it. "The teacher had the kids all learn about the four I's of oppression," she says.

Slides from lesson plans provided by Fontanilla confirm that the ethnic studies course references critical race theory by name. pic.twitter.com/6tsGRrp6dc

CRT is referenced in the district's ethnic course syllabus, which is available online. Scholarly articles about critical race theory are included in the suggested curriculum, including "Whose culture has capital? A critical race theory discussion of community cultural wealth."

"It's hyper-race-focused," says Fontanilla. "And whenever there's hyper race focus, racism will follow."
