All over the nation, schools are lowering standards for students of color in the name of "#antiracism."

The subtle message is that our kids can't succeed if the standards are objective -- and we REJECT this message! #1776Unites

Black scholars like @IanVRowe, @JohnHMcWhorter, @carolmswain and @GlennLoury are speaking out against the lie that we need to lower our expectations in order for children of color to succeed. Instead, we are calling for high expectations and preparing students for SUCCESS 🌅🙏🏾

Watering down standards for Black children sends a message to our kids that they should give up early and often. #TyrannyOfLowExpectations

Ask your kids what their schools are teaching about Black success and resilience -- and make sure they're sending a message that we can ALL succeed in the face of hardship. #1776Unites
