Schools Across the Country Have Adopted a New Lesson Plan, ‘The Woke Curriculum,’ Teaching Our Youngsters How to be Good Progressive-Socialists

WASHINGTON, DC, Apr 28 — Our kids are being brain-washed by the progressive-socialist movement that is infiltrating America’s schools, says Bari Weiss, former Opinion Editor at the New York Times.

In a recent article she penned for the online publication City Journal, Weiss recounts interviews she conducted with parents of youngsters attending Harvard-Westlake prep school in Los Angeles.  Harvard-Westlake can be described as a prestigious and pricey high school; yet, she says she was surprised to learn that it “is teaching students that capitalism is evil.”

Meanwhile, Weiss says that one mother told her, “They are making my son feel like a racist because of the pigmentation of his skin.”

In other words, our kids are being indoctrinated by what is known as a “woke curriculum,” a progressive lesson plan that distorts history in order to produce cadres of future foot soldiers in the march toward socialism, woke being slang for “wake up kids.”  The idea is to get them to believe that “merit, hard work, and respect for other ideas” are evils.

It’s happening across the nation as the “woke curriculum” inserts its way into our private and public schools with the aid of a new generation of teachers and professors whose objective seems to be to turn our world upside down, as one wag put it.

Epoch Times reporter Petr Svab writes that the quasi-Marxist critical race theory (CRT), for example, “has been spreading throughout academia, entertainment, government, schools, and corporations. It redefines America’s history as a struggle between ‘oppressors’ (white people) and the ‘oppressed’ (everybody else), similarly to Marxism’s reduction of human history to a struggle between the ‘bourgeoisie’ and the ‘proletariat.’ It labels institutions that emerged in majority-white societies as ‘systemically’ or ‘structurally’ racist.”

Svab focused on Parents Against Critical Theory (PACT).  That group describes itself as “a national grassroots organization working to reclaim our schools from activists imposing harmful agendas. Through network and coalition building, investigative reporting, litigation, and engagement on local, state, and national policies, we are fighting indoctrination in the classroom — and promoting the restoration of a healthy, non-political education for our kids.”

It appears that the “woke curriculum” is starting to scare even those who identify themselves as being on the left.  According to a Newsweek opinion article penned by Erika Sanzi of PACT, a liberal backlash is emerging.  Her article is entitled, The Coming Bipartisan Backlash to Public School Wokeness, and in it, she writes: “I spent a decade working in schools and never could have imagined that the widely accepted liberal slant of many public schools would transform into a cult-like dogma that deliberately shames, denigrates and segregates children, compels speech, disallows dissent and uses rhetorical manipulation to bully teachers and students into compliance.”

The Woke Movement started in earnest when the left decided to turn American heroes and heroines into “enemies of the state.

For example, the San Francisco Board of Education tried to rename public schools to rid them of names such as Abraham Lincoln, who abolished slavery; George Washington, the father of our country; Thomas Jefferson, a patriot of the American Revolution, Paul Revere, and the composer of our national anthem, Francis Scott Key.  And, if that’s not enough, they targeted naturalist John Muir, Spanish missionary Junipero Serra and even one of their own, Senator Dianne Feinstein [D-CA].

Apparently, either because Senator Feinstein sided with Republicans during the confirmation hearings for Supreme Court Associate Justice Amy Coney Barrett, or was it because when she was mayor of San Francisco, she replaced a vandalized Confederate flag in front of City Hall with a new one?

The Board suspended its decision to rename the schools because it was so controversial.  However, they made it clear that they will try again at an unspecified date.

“The anti-social socialists among us have moved on to the task of reindoctrinating our next generation of citizens,” warned one parent who says he is “beyond concerned.”

It was only a matter of time. So-called “progressive” Socialism, Communism, Nazism and now “Woke” are like cancer. It keeps coming back and will destroy and kill any society or culture where it metastasizes.

Reading all of the comments that are finally recognizing what is happening in America today brings the question, “How much longer are we just going to complain about it before taking action to correct it”?

It began in the early 1950s when Russia announced that they “would destroy us from within”, then began massive infiltration of our schools, youth organizations, local and Federal Government. My wife and I attended many townhall meetings supported by Federal Government to warn citizens. Then China silently took up the same, but extremely accelerated and intensified, and much more effective and successful method of infiltration than Russia. Meanwhile America naively ignored the warnings, considering that monitoring government and civic activity was too inconvenient, and here we are today. Welcome to The People’s Republic of China’s America. The big question is, “We let it happen, but are we going to just continue to sit on our asses, or do something about it”?

Related news yesterday, why is SCOTUS to decide on case of teenage cheerleader , that is not allowed to participate in activity for one year due use of profanity on media. The Supreme Court should not start overseeing decision by every public school in this country. Who had the power to bring this case to SCOTUS and why? Same with power grab to control State election laws???

WOKE is one of the dumbest names for a movement I have ever heard. This country is so divided now trying to please everybody. Put history lessons back in our schools & quit changing history to grease the squeaky wheels.

Socialist control of our school systems is just plain wrong on so many fronts. We have issues in the main subjects like reading, writing, and arithmetic, so the educators should focus on that. History, civics and government should get attention by schools before any attention is paid to any other subjects. From stories in the news, American children are falling behind most industrialized nations on the performance tests with regard to basic subjects. To interject other social concepts at the insistence of Marxist school boards is just playing to more government control. Meet and exceed the state standards first, and challenge all students for academic excellence without the brainwashing them with socialist concepts.

This is a test. If the parents and grandparents are both well educated and alert, this critical race theory propaganda will not survive in public schools. So are we all paying attention?

Rewriting history is part of the ‘leftist political agenda’. We and our history are all ‘racist’ according to ‘leftist political agenda’. The ‘leftist political agenda’, is so obvious; as a means to create a ‘polar opposite’. This is to create ‘opposition and power’; against so called ‘evil political conservatism’; curtesy of the ‘leftist agenda’. You must make a ‘polar opposite’ of something; even if it is to fight a ‘fictional anathema’. Quite obvious, and insulting to one’s intelligence.

By the way, The Constitution does not give the Federal Government any jurisdiction over the education system in this country. The 10 Amendment gives that authority to the states and people.
All this garbage in unconstitutional and so are executive orders, as the executive branch is not given any power to make law-only the Legislative Branch can to that, according to the Constitution, that is.

This “WOKE” BS is just the new name for what has been cropping up in our schools since the 1960’s! It started when the SCOTUS decided that “Prayer” in schools was unconstitutional, and ordered ALL schools to stop, even if it was voluntary! I can see the hand on the flush lever, and it’s starting to push down…

You would think there would be more discussion on this subject besides Nick, and I. This has been a topic of debate for quite a while. They want to brainwash our “white” children into thinking they’re racists, and separate us. They have been placing us in boxes to long, and the Marxism has too stop. We’re all Americans! I’ve wrote both Senators / Illinois about this subject, and in response I received information on the HR1 bill, about voting regulations. WTF ? That isn’t even about the subject matter! Our Illinois Senators are for this white, whitewash s*#t. It’s frustrating to say the least. If the kids are going to public schools, be well informed of the curriculum. Get involved, or send them to a private school. The country is split right down the middle. We’re witnessing a revolution whether we know it or not..

The radical left has been working for years to take over our education system. They have been successful. If you can send your kids/grandkids to private schools. Public education is communist indoctrination. This also now includes public universities. The left is winning. The right needs to wake up and fight.
