👉This collection is for CRT deniers in San Diego Unified who dismiss our critique of its woke Local Control & Accountability plan as misinformed, unintelligent, and unfounded. Right in your face! More in the 🧵
Also from SDUSD’s LCAP presentation. The dismantling practice is central to the plan’s Goal 1: Cultivating Inclusive, Anti-racism and restorative schools, classrooms and District. Pay attention to the semantics—safe spaces, site equity teams, affinity groups...@ZaidJilani
Also from SDUSD with “racialized love” for its teachers in the form of mandatory white privilege training. Whoops, is that Kendi and DiAngelo? What happens to “we are not reaching CRT”? 🤥🤥🤥
Don’t forget the compulsory anti-racist leadership and cultural awareness trainings from “never-CRT” SDUSD. We, the “misinformed and unintelligent” counterinsurgency, didn’t come up with such pathological manipulations.
Last but not least, this is the kind of Ethnic Studies being pushing on students and STEM. Not love or understanding but struggles and liberation. Most of these affiliated groups are with Union del Barrio whose mission is to liberate all races from Chile to Alaska.

A parent challenges anti-racism teaching, to which the school responds with links to "understand white supremacy," with recycled, debunked cultish claims as the following:
Look at this smorgasbord of fancy words that means nothing when put together. White supremacy is linked to all the other oppressions, all intersected in a toxic brew, an addiction that impacts all uniquely and collectively.
Well, I'm definitely infected. Come preach AA to me.
So to recap, a public school district in California refers concerned parents (worried about indoctrination &CRT) to a radical site on white supremacy, spewing incendiary hogwash. Are the parents supposed to believe the views 👆&👇and 🤐? @_BarringtonII@grossmanhannah@cwtremo
2/ As a steering committee member of American Birthright, I am proud to promote this superb set of K-12 history, social studies & civics standards. There is nothing wrong with teaching our children the birthright of liberty, or individualism, religious freedom, self-government.
3/In fact, with the constant drumbeat for revisionist history, social justice, service learning, anti-racism, students and schools need superior alternatives. If we’re so “prideful” about appropriating June, how about teaching some real pride about the same country we call home?
@adwooldridge is correct in arguing that despite its flaws, meritocracy remains the best system for organizing human societies...Meritocracy is not a panacea, but it is the most successful vehicle for progress. mindingthecampus.org/2022/05/23/wha…
@adwooldridge 2/Debunking meritocracy has become a ritualistic exercise in trendy equity training sessions. Characteristics such as hard work, personal initiative, and grit are only myths and vehicles of privilege that perpetuate structural inequities.
@adwooldridge 3/The central issue with Sandel’s perception of merit is that it relies on a false dichotomy between insurmountable, external obstacles and genetically determined, internal abilities. This absolute definition of merit leaves no room for other consequential ingredients such as...

San Dieguito UHSD did a mandatory DEI training for its board. A question was asked "Why do Asian kids do well in schools?" To which the superintendent replied: "people who're able to make the journey to America are wealthy." tinyurl.com/deiasian
2/. During the training, Superintendent Cheryl James-Ward floated this wild theory that Asian kids in her area are mostly from China and they possess emotional capital, financial capital... to outperform others. Your thoughts? @ConceptualJames@AsraNomani@XVanFleet
3/Dr. James-Ward continued: "a large influx of Chinese families move in, sight unseen, into our homes, our community... the whole family comes, grandparents and parents and the grandparents are there to support kids at home." What are you, lady, a neighborhood "Chinese" watch?
True story:
A 1st grader drew a pic of kids holding 🙌 & wrote All Live Matters on it, triggering her “classmate of color.” Classmates’ parents lodged a complaint & the incident got escalated & the little girl was made to apologize.
What happened? @_BarringtonII@ConceptualJames
2/Surprisingly, the little girl’s parents were not informed of this “racist incident.” They found out after being confronted by the parents of the triggered classmate for their alleged white supremacy. A little girl was shamed & scapegoated to coddle woke fragility & appease BLM
3/ Worse, the triggered classmate is a pawn in an evil political agenda. The parents are so wrapped in anti-racist thinking that their child is now tainted w. a race-based worldview. Both children’s innocence was damaged. @Moms4Liberty
