3. Teacher Unions are active, and in fact exist because of tenure laws. That means, without tenure they can be fired at the whim of any politically elected person, no matter their reviews or performance.
4. Nobody teaches what you folks are railing against. It is not a subject, and if you took the time to read about it, you would find it is not something to fear as you are being told.
5. Read this as a start.... What Is Critical Race Theory, and Why Is It Under Attack?
6. New York Post May be the only place you will see what you posted. A another Murdoch (think Fox) entity....both of them under severe pressure to become more extreme as ratings have tumbled.
Just wanted to make sure you know that I know “how this works” before you challenge me again. You really have no clue. |
Interesting. While you are on the subject, and if you don't mind, who long exactly has it been since you and/or your spouse taught public school? The reason I ask is that we are speaking of CRT being taught today, and it has been reported in several states as being taught today. I doubt sincerely that it is only FOX that is reporting this, because I do not (or rarely) watch FOX news. Not that I have anything against it, but I tend to read my news other than the local weather.
I have seen/read reports of children bringing home school work where they are studying CRT, even if it is not labeled CRT. Sorry, but I do not believe that someone has deliberately made up this "conspiracy."
I apologize if you misconstrue this as an accusation that you are wrong. I am just suggesting that since you do not teach now(or do you?) and do not teach in all the states in the U.S. of A. then you cannot definitely state that CRT is NOT being taught.
I applaud your loyalty to unions, even though I consider them wrong for America now. I do believe they had their place years ago, before the gov imposed employment regulations protecting most employee rights. IMO unions are a tool of the socialists, and I am anti-socialist when it comes to our country. I am sure that some social programs have been beneficial for some folks, but private enterprise has always been superior and of more benefit for our country. I have not seen a business yet that the Feds can operate efficiently.
Thank you for your many years of servicing America's children. I have great admiration for most teachers and I do know the limits and regulations that the gov has put on teaching today. And it is too bad that unions tend to spend most of their effort protecting bad teachers.
