Earlier this month, many government schools participated in Black Lives Matter at School Week. The annual Social Justice Week of Action began in 2016 in the state of Washington and grew over the years with support from the National Education Association (NEA). This year’s NEA promotion includes an image of students appearing to grab and shred the American flag while another student holds up the Black Lives Matter (BLM) flag. What an image! This is a true reflection of the indoctrination happening in government schools. Sadly, today, children are being taught to hate America and believe our country is systemically racist.

The online Starter Kit for schools to participate in BLM at School Week touts four national demands for the week of action: 1) End zero tolerance discipline and implement restorative justice, 2) hire more black teachers, 3) mandate black history and ethnic studies, and 4) fund counselors, not cops.

So, let’s get this straight.

BLM wants to end strict discipline in classrooms to be replaced by a theory that focuses on the victim and repairing harm done, which has morphed into the payment of monetary reparations to victims of historical social injustice.

BLM wants to hire teachers based on their race rather than their skills and abilities. Discrimination in the name of diversity like this is rampant across our country. For example, in 2021, North Carolina’s largest district encouraged teachers to ignore concerns from white parents about critical race theory because “their children benefit from the system.” There is so much irony in how “anti-racist” programs are........
