A Colorado school is trying to teach kindergarteners leftist propaganda. Parents are of course upset, but the school claims teaching students about Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ is somehow “not political.”
“Centennial Elementary School (CES) in Denver Public Schools (DPS) announced its plans to participate in the “Black Lives Matter (BLM) at School Week of Action” from Jan. 31 – Feb. 4, according to a report from Parents Defending Education (PDE). The school said it will instruct kindergarteners and first graders to be “transgender affirming” by “recognizing trans-antagonistic violence” and “queer affirming” so “heteronormative thinking no longer exists.”
“One of the 13 “Black Lives Matter Guiding Principles” the elementary school will teach is “globalism,” which is defined as “our ability to see how we are impacted or privileged within the Black global family.”
Another BLM principle outlined by the school is “Black Villages” or “the disruption of Western nuclear family dynamics and a return to the ‘collective village’ that takes care of each other.”
“The school also provides a link to Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), such as “Isn’t teaching BLM teaching politics?,” “Are all of these topics age-appropriate?” and “I don’t support the BLM organization or all of the of the BLM movement. How should I talk to my child about it?”
Responses include the claim that “supporting BLM is not political” because it is “not inherently aligned with a single political party,” PDE documents show.
In response to age-appropriateness, the school said it believes “it is never too early to start talking about race,” citing research that says children ages two to four can internalize racial bias and by age 12, “many children become set in their beliefs,” according to PDE documents.”
This is covert/rebranded Critical Race Theory. So parents should be up in arms, and concerned about what these radical libs are trying to get away with. And if Parents can they should move their kids over to homeschooling or a better school that teaches the basics not liberal propaganda.
