STOP what you're doing and START watching this interview from 2001 with Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt (#CTI). She cannot be controlled or cancelled. She #AWAKENED in 1975 and her book on #education is a MUST. Would love to have met her. 🧵
"Textbook called 'World of Mankind': teacher takes the 1st grade through town and asks them to identify big houses & little houses. What do you think they eat in the big house, what do they eat in the little house? To create class system class warfare"
"The United States Dept. of Education does fund the National Education Association. So this has been going on for a long, long time." -#CTI
“As an American-a Mom, apple pie, red white and blue, Memorial Day parades-I was just appalled and I’ve never gotten over it. I got on the white horse in 1975 and I’ve never gotten off and I will not until they stop this [brainwashing of children]." -#CTI
"To move a country from a free individualistic economy to a planned economy you have to do it through the schools; you have to dumb down and brainwash
change the attitudes and values; social engineering has to go on constantly" -#CTI ttps://youtu.be/QwoiE4xPEqs?t=979
"Go back to the early part of the century when the Rockefeller Foundation and the Carnegie Corporation were deeply involved in education and that it was decided then that Carnegie would deal with the International part and Rockefeller domestic" -#CTI
"Carnegie Corp poured its tax exempt $ into changing American ed; they were instrumental in getting the Elementary & Secondary Education Act (ESEA) passed which changed education from knowledge content-based academics to performance-based behavior."
"He gave a speech in '45 to the WHO which recommended getting rid of the conscience; we would do it through the schools; retrain the teachers to be little psychiatrists; '65 the Elementary & Secondary Education Act passed & we moved [away] from academics"
"By '68 the money had gone into all of these programs to get rid of the conscience; these programs parents really when you see education hanging on the end like 'drug education', 'sex education', 'critical thinking education' = red flag" -#CTI
"Standards/accountability/flexibility; has nothing to do with academics; has to do with training little worker bees to have the right attitudes and values towards internationalism; giving up our sovereignty for the needs of the group versus the individual"
"Get world minded students or they're going to rebel; to put Americans under a global management system, you don't teach them the Constitution/Bill of Rights; don't let them have any history because they are going to object when it is taken away from them"
"Take the Constitution away from the American people right now and they wouldn't care because they don't even know what it is they don't know it protects them, protects their rights"
"if you can't read they can take you right through the 12 years without reading; total brainwashing through visual-a lot of visual aids now-with technology trying to make people weaker readers"
"A good teacher who understood #phonics well could could use a whole language program quite well; but the dumbing down was absolutely deliberate."
"The ESEA comes to $100 billion/year & we have children who [can't read]; we're at the bottom of the list internationally academically! Home schoolers/private schools do it on $2k dollars a year/pupil but you see the brainwashing is horribly expensive"
"I saw these programs in US Department of Education; I was relieved of my duties for leaking a very important one; we got our orders from where? The UN and this is an international plan"
"1920s, Maine Sup. of Schools-a big internationalist/head of Carnegie-gave speech to National Ed Assoc. re/need for using schools to bring about world gov; after WWI, this idea that we never want to have another war again we're all going to get along"
"1958 Eisenhower signed agreements w/Soviet Union in every area imaginable including education; Carnegie was involved. They kept renewing all these agreements. '85 Reagan and Carnegie signed agreements with Gorbachev and with the Soviet Academy of Science"
"No where in the Constitution that it calls for a Department of Education; it's left to the state. Carter started it; he promised the NEA if he could get their votes; interesting thing was majority of teachers at the time did not want a US Dept of Ed"
"If people don't understand here that we have a serious problem the Republicans and the
Democrats at the top are totally in bed together on this and that's because they are both controlled by the internationalists and the international agenda"
"This restructuring of education has been in the works for a hundred years; it has been a deliberate dumbing down; they never could have done it to us if we've been well educated; to control, to put us under & we will go under if people don't wake up"
"Education is the most imp. b/c that's where you educate your children-their attitudes, values, understanding of freedom-if they do not have that they're going to allow the most magnificent system-political and economic -the world has ever known to die"
"...it's dying right now because Congress voted to change our form of government in the 90s when they voted in the school-to-work agenda and the goals 2000. Because if you change an economic system to a planned economy there's no freedom left"
"They want to get your children the minute they're born. Alexander-Rep. Sec. of Ed & Gov. said we want to go into the schools the minute the baby is born and follow the child; make sure they're healthy that's the school-based clinics"
"That's where you have bringing medical services into schools; they want healthy workers; that worker is going to be the perfect; they used to call it the the new Soviet man; your child is nothing but a human resource to be used for the good of the state"
"The controlled left (Ted Kennedy & all who take orders from the UN) and the controlled right (the Heritage Foundation and a lot of the controlled conservative media) who refused to review my book because I am not in favor of federally funded or #schoolchoice proposals because I… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
"The whole thing is collapsed; they don't want our children to know history; they want to change their attitudes and values from those that the moms and dads have tried to instill instill in them so that there's no right, no wrong." twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
"If you'd been awake at the switch you would not have been able to notice how this was done and I think it's a very diabolical manipulative way" twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
"I plead with people not to fall for the school choice proposals; there is no school choice proposal that is legitimate or or safe as far as I've seen except for home schooling; be very careful don't accept anything from the local school system if you do computers or money or… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

On “school choice”, I’ll share this 🧵(11)

In AZ, we paid $3k in annual prop. taxes in a lovely neighborhood and had numerous charter options; some lottery based. Our oldest was @GreatHeartsAcad. It was tuition-free w/suggested donation of $1k.
We drove 20 min to the school each way and donated $1k for the year of classical education. This school went through 12th grade.
$4k total w/prop taxes = our bill for AZ school choice.

In 2015, we moved back to IL with one student in public school and a $12k annual tax bill.
Last year, we helped start a new private school that takes zero govt $ b/c we didn’t believe our 7 year old daughter was safe with IL legislation SB818 and sinking public school proficiencies. This added a $7500 annual tuition cost.
