CHARTER/RELIGIOUS/PRIVATE/HOME SCHOOLS vs. PUBLIC SCHOOLS

 

THE PROBLEM

For more information…

Many public schools did not offer full-time in-school, face-to-face education during the Pandemic; the on-line “Zoom” classes that were offered were not effective for most students.  However, Private, Religious  and Charter schools were, for the most part, fully open during the Pandemic.  Why the large difference between public schools and the others?  The short answer is that the Teachers Unions, for a number of reasons, wouldn’t allow their members to return to classroom teaching.  Local governments agreed to incentives that the Unions demanded, but it wasn’t good enough. Because most public schools usually had predominantly minority students, the bad effects of schools being locked down fell mostly on them.  So what should parents do to prevent their children from ever being affected again like this or if they do not want their children being taught harmful, racist theories?

THE SOLUTION

IF YOU COULD AFFORD IT, putting your children in religious or charter schools is the answer.  Charter schools are so popular that they run lotteries to select their students, so parents  should sign up their children for the lotteries.  Some States have passed legislation that give parents education money to send their children to the schools they want to send them to (see Thomas Sowell’s book, “Charter Schools and Their Enemies”).  In addition, many public schools have morphed into indoctrination-institutions for brainwashing children, teaching racist theories such as “Critical Race Theory” and the “1619 Project” while at the same time not teaching the greatness of the founding of America, the Constitution and Declaration of Independence.  These are not simply insignificant teachings, they turned children into self-hating anti-Americans, so many public schools have become something to avoid.

IF YOU COULD NOT AFFORD IT, what should parents have done if their children were stuck in partially locked-down public schools or if they observed their children being taught half-baked theories?  I believe the answer is to: 1) attend and speak up at local school board meetings, 2)  get elected to local school boards to change curriculums, 3) provide children with materials that give the accurate side of history, such as those offered on-line like PraegerU.com. (in accordance with the philosophy that the best remedy is to offer more free speech, not to shut down speech you disagree with), contact “Parents Against Critical (Race) Theory” [info@stoplcpscrt.com], 4) pressure politicians to change funding of schools by having public education funds follow the children so that parents could choose what schools to send their children to and control their children’s education instead of the Teachers Unions, and 5) Home School children.

CLOSING

Many public schools, as well as private schools, can longer be trusted to simply teach our children, instead of indoctrinating or “brainwashing” them.  The safest course is to get them out of public schools.  If that’s not possible, then consider homeschooling.  With all of the guidance available…it’s dot difficult.  If that’s not possible, then closely watch everything your child’s school does and complain to your school board when necessary or better yet, run for a spot on your school board.

MUGGED: racial demagoguery

I read Ann Coulter’s book, Mugged, and learned a lot of new information from this lawyer and best-selling author.  None of the information surprised me but it was insightful reading Ms. Coulter’s relentless array of facts.

Basically, Coulter contends that very few of the racial incidents in the last 50 years have been racist (civil rights battles were mostly won before the seventies); instead, they were racial hoaxes, perpetrated by demagogues for various reasons and motives.

One of the most important facts that Ann Coulter shows in her book, Mugged,  is that all segregationists were Democrats and that the Democrat Party fought against Civil Rights legislation for 100 years going way back to Abraham Lincoln’s time when Lincoln and his Republican Party ran on an anti-slavery platform.  This is not news to us who know American history but it is big news to millions of Americans that have been brainwashed and now believe the racist propaganda politicians spout off.

Another very important and horrific fact brought to light in Ms. Coulter’s book is the fact that a major consequence of every racial hoax is the slaughter of whites by young black hoodlums seeking revenge for what they hear and believe to be true about the (phony) racial incidents (Google: “Blackout Game,” “Polar Bear Hunting,” “Flash Mobs”).

Why do I believe the aforementioned to be true?  First, because I trust Ann Coulter in accurately portraying the facts.  Second, because I not only worked for many years assisting minorities in combating discrimination as a Federal collateral-duty EEO Counselor and then as a Federal collateral-duty Hispanic Employment Program Coordinator, but also have closely followed many racial incidents, including Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown.

“Mugged” gives the details of many racial incidents, such as the Tawana Brawley rape hoax with Al Sharpton’s involvement.  I believe that some racism still exists, but there are many politicians and race hustlers exploiting race simply to get your vote, and use the very toxic “Critical Race Theory” (which contends that all whites are oppressors and all blacks are victims) and the”1619 Project” (which contends that America was really founded to further slavery, contrary to what the Declaration of Independence says).

CONCLUSION

Ann Coulter’s book, Mugged, ends with Barack Obama.  The United States has made fantastic progress since it left British rule in 1776, which back then had slavery.  Eighty-seven years later President Lincoln signed the Emancipation Proclamation which freed the slaves (in 1863).  One hundred and thirty-seven years after the slaves were freed, the U.S. elected its first African-American President (Barack Obama in 2008).  In the 1960’s, significant Civil Rights laws were passed to help combat discrimination.  Today, many politicians are unethically using race to create racial strife to further their political agendas.  It’s no coincidence that 90% of African-Americans vote Democrat, though Democrat Socialist policies are preventing them from achieving their dreams.
