In Shocking Video, Tim Walz’s Education Adviser Urges Overthrow of America

In a stunning video brought to public attention by National Review, Brian Lozenski, a leading authority on critical race theory who is Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s most important education adviser, calls explicitly for the “overthrow” of America.

Here are the highlights of what Lozenski says in the video flagged by National Review contributing editor Stanley Kurtz, a senior fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center:

The first tenet of critical race theory is that the United States as constructed is irreversibly racist. So if the nation-state as constructed is irreversibly racist, then it must be done with. It must be overthrown. And so we can’t be like, ‘Oh, no, critical race theory is just about telling our stories, and diversity.’ It’s not about that. It’s about overthrow. It’s insurgent. And we need to be, I think, more honest with that. …

You can’t be a critical race theorist and be pro-U.S.

Critical race theory, the ideology injected by the woke Left into schools across the country, holds that America is “systemically racist,” that racism is in our DNA. The implications of this belief are clear enough to anyone interested in reasoning them out.

But never before have we heard a leading advocate of critical race theory say out loud that CRT is aimed at overthrowing America. Lozenski isn’t a marginal figure; he is a nationally known activist and academic and the foremost authority on “ethnic studies” in Minnesota.

He also is typical of the “destructive Left” that wants to overthrow America.   

Walz, who is Kamala Harris’ choice for vice president, may not have seen this particular video. But the former social studies teacher certainly knows the purpose of ethnic studies. It’s the centerpiece of his education program in Minnesota.

Walz appointed Lozenski to lead the committee that developed the Minnesota ethnic studies standards on which curricula will be based. As governor, Walz has seen to it that these standards will be enforced in every grade and every required subject in every public school.

If the video becomes an issue, Walz of course will try to distance himself from Lozenski. But this will be difficult: Walz’s fingerprints are all over this radical initiative.

Katherine Kersten, a senior policy fellow at the Center of the American Experiment in Minneapolis, gives us a flavor of the new Walz-Lozenski standards:

  • First graders must “identify examples of ethnicity, equality, liberation, and systems of power” and “use those examples to construct meanings for those terms.”
  • Fourth graders must “identify the processes and impacts of colonization and examine how discrimination and the oppression of various racial and ethnic groups have produced resistance movements.” 
  • High school students are told to “develop an analysis of racial capitalism” and “anti-Blackness” and are taught to view themselves as members of “racialized hierarchies” based on “dominant European beauty standards.”

Although to the average parent the jargon here is (intentionally) impenetrable, virtually every word or term points to the overthrow of America. 

Walz even tried to mandate ethnic studies for students who were being homeschooled or attending private religious schools.

School boards across Minnesota are required to ensure that curricula and instructional materials are compliant with ethnic studies-related ideology. In obtaining a license to teach, aspiring teachers need to understand how “white supremacy” undermines “pedagogical equity.” 

Based on these facts, as well as other Walz behavior (e.g., 30 trips to China), it is clear as day that the Democrats’ nominee for vice president wants to overthrow America.

Many people in Minnesota don’t credit Walz with the brain power to understand what he is doing. Walz may have limited gray matter, but it strains credulity to believe that he isn’t aware of the implications of his most important education program.

No doubt Walz didn’t dream up his revolutionary agenda on his own. But, like Harris and President Joe Biden, he is quite conscious that he is promoting it. 

The revolutionary goals of Brian Lozenski are the key to understanding Tim Walz, and Walz is the key to understanding Harris. After all, the vice president chose Walz as her running mate over several more qualified finalists because his ideology was the most compatible with hers.  

That Walz and Harris want to overthrow America sounds unbelievable, but the facts make this conclusion virtually certain.

Obviously, both Democrats would deny that this is their intention. Harris and Walz would claim that they simply want to improve America. Even if they actually believe this, their so-called “improving” would end up as what any honest observer would call an overthrowing of America.

 And this they know perfectly well.

If that is Walz’ stance then that makes him not only not VP material, a liar, and a perjurer, but a traitor!

The only thing missing in all that jumble are academics. How will be students prepared to cope and deal with those who excel in math ,sciences etc.How will they navigate through life? Not everyone can have a place at public trove as the proponents of this insanity have This obsession with the sins of white man and ignoring the fact that blacks brought to S. America, sugar producing islands and eventually to N. America were sold by their own , the first transaction happened there,we are not responsible for the actions of their ancestors any more as today’s German is responsible for WWII . If the past must be dredged out lets start from the very beginning and only the facts no matter how unpleasant they might be. Lets not forget that Arabs bought and sold. Funny how these fighters for justice manage to avoid the truth and they insist filling the heads of our children with the same garbage that is in their own heads.

This plan of Walz and Harris is no surprise or it should not be based on everything that has come out about them. However, most Democrats, WOKE Republicans, and some Independents are blind to all this. The big question is: Why did not this information come out long before even early voting started? Why wait til the 11th hour (election day) to make this public. It is too late to inform the citizens of this country of this now with the majority of the voters voting earlier. Another failure to keep voters informed by news agencies in a timely manner. Very sad for our country. Shame on the news media.

Trump is not perfect by any means, but to those folks voting for the other team, you are trading your heritage, liberty, inalienable rights and your freedom for the “right” to chop up and surgically mutilate children (or kill them) for the LGBTQ crowd to dictate public policy for the rest of us, for a handful of corporations and ngo’s to tell you what you can or cannot buy & sell, for what thpe of healthcare you can or cannot have, to scrap the Bill of Rights and submitting to the U.N. etc, ad nauseam.
If Tim Walz or his colleague Brian Lozenski think they can overthrow the United States, there are many veteran soldiers who swore an oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Even if they have an “army” of college “educated” soy boys, they’d better think twice before pulling a stunt like that. I’ll bet the vast majority of them couldn’t identify the business end of a firearm, and the few that can, are more than likely very poor marksman. CRT is just another facet of BS Marxism.

This is nothing new. If I may, from St. John Chrysostom, his words from the 4th century:
“And when they perceived everything to be in a desperate state according to human reckoning, they were not thrown into confusion, nor were they troubled. Rather, they endured everything with nobility, having the power of Him Who made the promises as a great proof of the good things to come. And in the face of adverse events, they did not fall into despair. For they knew clearly that, since God is inventive and wise, after things have been despaired of, they could be restored to a state better than before, and the things that had been promised could be brought to fulfillment with great ease.
Therefore, beloved one, you too, if your afflictions come to an end in the present life, glorify God. If your life ends in difficulties, even then, be thankful and do not be scandalized, recognizing clearly the infinite providence of God, which cannot be explained, and knowing that everything will receive its appropriate end, either in the present life or in the life to come.”
So, God have mercy on us all.

If the vast swath of intellectually lazy citizens did just a little research the dem party wouldnt exist or if it did would resemble what it was in 1960. This is tragic because information is so easily available. Yes, perhaps 20-25% of our fellow citizens are raging leftists, but the majority vote on the basis of ads, the physical appearance of candidates or extremely biased news stories. Ill never forget tom brokaws lament regarding how little was known of bho in 2008. It didnt matter to voters eager for a political messiah. A lifelong marxist was elected because people were too slothful to do any research.

Not surprising. The efforts to undermine America began back in the 1960s and academia has been indoctrinating three generations in a row now. This type of insidious manipulation has gone more unnoticed than the front page efforts. The liberals don’t talk about it, they just keep doing it and they have succeeded. Time to reverse this trend, get rid of all the DEI, woke and CRT stuff and get back to actually educating children. And I mean the US citizen children, not millions from other countries who will never become citizens. We will need the brave teachers who remain (a lot will have hissy fits and resign) to bring back the basics to education and start presenting REAL history, with both sides of the stories. Some colleges will be forced to close after federal funding for their brainwashing is cut off. Then the trade schools and homeschooling and charter schools can take off and pick up the slack.

Ya think? This has been obvious from the beginning of the DEI “movement”—sort of like a BM. Excrete America and get on with the Socialist Utopia that has worked out so well— nowhere else. These people are either so uneducated or so stupid, they don’t even know the basic fact of their own agenda, and that is IT DOESN’T WORK.

James Lindsay at New Discourses has been exposing the marxist insurgency in the US and its connection to CRT and DEI, transgenderism, antifa, etc., by reading and discussing academic and government documents in his podcast, blog posts, and speeches. It’s definitely not kept a secret.
