🧵Now that we have a #verdict #DerekChauvinIsGuilty, let's examine how activists exploited #GeorgeFloyd to sneak #BlackLivesMatter #CriticalRaceTheory into K-12.

I filed a FOIA + investigated for @DefendingEd how it happened at our No1 HS. Read @FDRLST👇🏽
thefederalist.com/2021/04/20/ind…
Teachers lectured students, who are 70% Asian, 10% Black, Hispanic + multiracial & 20% white, about “intersectionality” + called out the mostly minority students of color for their “racism.”

Watch a @TJAlumniAG activist tell students not to salsa.
TJ principal Ann Bonitatibus @TJAnnB calls the presentation "created by students." She claims: “There is no critical race theory training with students.” Read the FOIA👇🏽to see how she + staff were directly involved with the training as far back as Aug 2020 defendinged.org/incidents/blm_…
Read the letter by TJHSST parent Suparna Dutta to Principal Ann Bonitatibus. Parents are fed up of the way activists like this principal exploit the tragedy of #GeorgeFloyd to hijack schools with their activism.

"You ought to be fired," Suparna writes.

🚨IMPT point from @DefendingEd Nicole Neily in @WSJopinion: “New York’s Selective Public Schools Aren’t Only for the Wealthy.
More than 60% of the students at Brooklyn Tech High School + nearly half the students at Stuyvesant High School live in poverty.”

wsj.com/articles/new-y…
🧵Writes Nicole Neily @DefendingEd: “@MoskowitzEva makes an excellent point that New York City students suffer from a shortage of good schools (“Great Schools Are the Solution to Educational ‘Segregation,’ ” Cross Country, April 12).” Image
“But we shouldn’t make the mistake of viewing the city’s selective schools as disproportionately composed of the children of affluent white families.”

🧵Devastating. Read. every. word. ⁦@LeilaFadel⁩ NPR expose. It’s everything Muslim women have known about America’s largest Muslim civil rights organization, the Council on American-Islamic Relations. Secret polygamy. Abuse. Sexual harassment. Sexism npr.org/2021/04/15/984…
“In a video posted on GoFundMe, Hassan Shibly's estranged wife, mother of their three children, looked directly into the camera and begged for help. She said her abusive husband had cut her off financially.”

CAIR knew.

gofundme.com/f/financial-he…
Writes @LeilaFadel: "The accusations were shocking not only in their content but in the public airing of a nationally recognized Muslim leader's personal drama. For a decade, Shibly led the prominent Florida chapter of...CAIR"
He responds, doubling down 'in this blessed month'⬇️

Cofounder of #blacklivesmatter Patrisse Khan-Cullors buys Topanga Canyon home for $1.4 million. “Interior spaces feature bamboo floors and, in the spacious open-plan living room, dining area and kitchen, vaulted ceilings clad in knotty pine.” ⁦ dirt.com/gallery/more-d…
🧵How did anti-capitalist, self-described Marxist Patrice Cullors #BlackLivesMatter monetize her activism? I wondered. Here’s what I found. She created a consulting firm with her wife Janaya Khan, an early BLM leader. jnp.llc “Janaya & Patrisse Consulting.” Image
“Transforming Organizations One Strategic Planning Session at a Time.” In the time honored tradition of (capitalist) consulting firms, they monetize “strategic planning,” “media + narrative building,” 🤮 and “intervention” and “cultural shift work.” 🤑 Or gobbledygook. Image

The lawyer for Boston schools is just taking the lazy argument “because of COVID they could not give the test.” What a cop out! It’s pure anti-Asian racism to use zip code quotas as a proxy for racial balancing.

“Wait wait,” the judge says.

He calls out her BS.
You can’t make this up. The Boston Schools lawyer talks about “the Chinatown zip code” and mocks the plaintiffs, mostly Asian families. Her defense just reeks of anti-Asian prejudice. You have to watch her weird disdain of the “Chinatown zip code.” It’s shocking

Tale of two headlines.

White man kills Asian women --> "White supremacy" "haunting" "Asian Americans"

Two Black girls kill an Asian Muslim man --> "The girls" "assaulted" an "Uber Eats driver" with a Taser, "which led" to "an accident" "in which" "he was fatally injured"
There seem to many people who don’t understand something very simple: consistency. If you are going to make every issue in society about race, then *you* don’t get to chose what is about race and what isn’t.
PS Your threats + slurs don’t scare me. Been there. Heard that.
Welcome to the ethical immorality and incongruence of critical race theory activists and ideologues. Where does “sand eater” fit in their “oppression matrix” that promotes a new racial hierarchy in society? Between “bitc*” and “pu**y.”

Sacramento @officialSCUSD promotes an “anti-racist classroom,” @DrIbram + his divisive critical race theory, which dismisses Asians as “white adjacent.”

A teacher just used “slant eyes” to depict “Chinese” and “Japanese” people.

Let me chronicle why this is no coincidence.👇🏽
“If your eyes go up, you’re Chinese,” teacher Nicole Burkett said, stretching her eyes out + upwards. “If they go down, they’re Japanese. If they’re just straight, you don’t know.”

Here is the original video, recorded by a student during online learning:
Is this some racist school district? I did a simple Google search of Sacramento school district and racism....and like school districts around the country, last June 2020, it announced "racial and social justice supports" after George Floyd's death.
