America's P.C. Education Part One: Public Schools

America's P.C. Education Part One: Public Schools
 
The liberal-leftist farce called the Common Core State Standards Initiative, the misbegotten brainchild not of America’s states but of the federal government, has often been exposed here and by massive numbers of other objective observers as nothing more than an effort to seize control of American education by socialist zealots intent on both subverting American education and corrupting the minds and hearts of America’s students through political correctness.

The Common Core was doomed to failure from the outset and, no doubt, will soon become a distant, expensive memory, which is not to suggest it will not leave in its wake corrosive P.C. thinking in both public schools and on college and university levels of education.  (Part Two will deal with the latter.)

Granted, political correctness has long been ingrained in teachers’ and administrations’ philosophies but it has grown like invasive kudzu in recent years, often instigated by President Barack Hussein Obama’s lie that we now live in a race-neutral society.

The following represents a mere fraction of the rampant, violent, and unpunished black racism going on in America’s public school systems which go largely un-reported by our nation’s mainstream media.

For example:

—The new Rutherford B. Gaston Middle School in Fresno, California.  The school hired a white, male teacher, presumably because he was best qualified for the position of teaching African-American/Latino studies.  Unfair, claimed community and church leaders who demanded the Fresno Unified School District rescind the job offer and instead offer it to a black teacher, presumably regardless of that teacher’s qualifications.

A protest led by Rev. Karen Crozier who denounced Gaston’s original choice an atrocity, and thereby revealed the palpable black racism that today is perfectly acceptable or, at least, politically correct. 

In Fresno, the color of one’s skin obviously takes precedence over all other considerations.

—Hempstead, Texas middle school.  On a related front in America’s culture wars, Hempstead’s principal Amy Lacey was initially placed on administrative leave and subsequently fired for asking on the intercom that Hispanic students speak English in the school’s classrooms.

To no avail, Ms. Lacey’s attorney explained that his client imposed “no consequences for speaking Spanish in class” and that “Ms. Lacey stated her respect for the Hispanic culture and language.”  She defended herself by explaining, “I informed students it would be best to speak English in the classrooms to  the extent possible, in order to help prepare them for [state] tests . . . I did not ban the use of Spanish anywhere in the school or at any time.”

Tough nookies, Madame principal; you lost and P.C. won.

—Parkway Academy School, Dover, Delaware.  In April, a white teenage boy was mindlessly sucker-punched and kicked by a mob of black thugs . . . (Read more at http://www.genelalor.com/blog1/?p=38467.)
