"Decolonizing", "whiteness" - these are the words at the forefront of K12 CRT curricula being implemented in WA state by @waOSPI and @WA_SBE.
This Thread will discuss the influence of Frantz Fanon on CRT in your kid's school and his genocidal legacy.
2/9 This recent article defending CRT in schools [bostonreview.net/race-politics/…] accuses those who oppose it of "conjuring neo-Marxist bogeyman" and not crediting Fanon. I will hold them to claiming Fanon.
3/9 In the Forward to 'Black Skin, White Masks', Fanon's body of work is described as "Hegelian-Marxist dialectic".
Fanon treats race in accordance with Marxist philosophy. This is when 'white' started functioning like kulak.
4/9 Fanon influenced the 'beta test version' of what is currently happening in the USA:
the Ethiopian Student Movement.
Receipts from Socialist 'Jacobin Magazine' on Fanon's legacy in Ethiopia, from Marxist uprising to ethnic strife, read last pic: jacobinmag.com/2019/12/ethiop…
5/9 The article links to a paper from the time of the Ethiopian Student Movement:
ethnicities calling each other 'supremacists'; some more 'conscious' than others have the duty to 'liberate' themselves first. marxists.org/history/erol/e…
6/9 Current Ethiopian hashtags show the legacy of Hegel-Marx-Fanon.
7/9 Now back to the classroom.
"Decolonizing", "Whiteness"; these terms are the work of Fanon, so we know they come with Fanon's promise of activist violence.
8/9 If proto-CRT can turn Ethiopia (never colonized by a European country) into an ethnic-cleansing hellscape, we should take note of that and kick it out of our schools.
These are not conservative sources I used to present this case.
9/9 When @waOSPI begins collecting ethnic/nationality identity data (unprecedented) from kids next year (examples below) - think of the ethno-Marxist, genocidal philosophy they adhere to.
