Teachers’ comments lack clear thinking
It was a shocker to read the teachers’ comments in the Sunday, May 16, article “Educators Respond to Limits on Teaching About Racism.” One must conclude that the teachers quoted did not read nor understand the law they refer to or that they simply are biased in favor of the current thinking on racism. Their remarks are unbelievable in that they are not even related to provisions of the law – they seem to have simply pulled them out of the air to continue the theory that we are a systemically racist country.
The comments are so bizarre that one suspects that the reporter simply picked the ones that most reflect the current racial theories, while ignoring any teachers whose comments would indicate a certain balance in their thinking.
Very scary stuff! No wonder we have an educational system that seems equivalent to that of Biafra.
