Should have been called “Who is the biggest oppressor” instead of bingo.

Maybe Gatehouse should be forced to examine their privilege by visiting with Gold Star families.

People get their news from a variety of sources, especially now that publications like the Washington Post are all-in on the equity agenda in FCPS and, for example, purposefully fail to cover emails in which FCPS officials and School Board members made clear their intent was to change TJ admissions for racial reasons and that they thought anti-Asian discrimination was funny.

As long as the information is sourced, which the FCPS privilege bingo absolutely was (efforts to suggest otherwise notwithstanding), it doesn't matter whether it's covered in The Federalist or The Nation.


+1 glad it's finally getting covered even if it's only on the nbc website and not on the evening news. I'm tired of the "nope - didn't happen FAKE NEWS!" if it's not covered by the liberal news.

Same thing happened with Woke Kindergarten. I'm sure there more and parents have no idea.


If this happens often for you maybe you should stop getting your news from trash sources.

Came across my Twitter feed. I normally listen to NBC & read Wapo, so no, I would not have heard about it yesterday if it hadn't come across my Twitter feed that includes left and right news sources.

If they hadn't dinged the military, it most likely never would have been reported by the left news sources.

So who is in charge of military family relations for FCPS? They need to step in here and fix this scandal — obviously some rogue staff hold deep-seated bias against military members. This bingo card goes against FCPS’ Month of Military Child designation each April:

“Each year, our nation designates April as the Month of the Military Child to recognize and thank children from military families for the sacrifices they make living the military lifestyle. The recognition is part of the legacy of former Defense Secretary Casper Weinberger who established the commemoration in 1986. During the month, one day is selected as the day to “Purple Up! For Military Kids” and all are encouraged to wear purple in recognition of the strength and sacrifices of military-connected youth (MCY). Why purple? Purple is the color that symbolizes all branches of the military, as it is the combination of Army green, Coast Guard blue, Air Force blue, Marine red, and Navy blue.

Military connected youth face unique circumstances living the military lifestyle. By understanding the lifestyle of military-connected youth we can better meet their needs as they transition with their family members who serve our nation. Currently over 14,000 military-connected youth call FCPS home.

Celebrating the Month of the Military Child provides a powerful opportunity to raise awareness and build support to help these children meet the unique challenges they face! It is an opportunity to recognize and thank military children and youth for their heroism, character, courage, sacrifices and continued resilience.

FCPS is proud to recognize all military-connected children this April during Month of the Military Child. Each year we join our country in celebrating the resiliency of military-connected children for their tremendous service and sacrifice at home in the U.S. and overseas.”

“Dinged”?

How is saying that being in the military is a privilege “dinging” the military?

It’s not a negative.

Our school has at least one gold star family.

If it had happened in elementary or middle school, no one would have known


Fortunately it happened in high school where the student was astute enough to take pictures and speak up.

So is this the root of the “CRT” issue for Republicans?

They don’t want schools to teach anything related “being a good person”?

Empathy
Gratitude
Honesty
Responsibility
Respecting others
Etc

I guess they don’t want their own kids to realize they are a-holes.


They are not teaching gratitude. They are creating guilt. There is a big difference.

It is also not helpful to the less privileged. Being told you are a victim is self=-fulfilling.




And recognizing privilege is not “guilt”.


It clearly is for a lot of white people on this thread, which means they are completely missing the point of the lessons. You're (the general you) choosing to feel guilty for something that is an inherent privilege is keeping you from opening up to the sort of discourse and dialogue that could actually lead to progress


Keep your CRT crap out of the classroom or give us vouchers so we can send our kids to private school instead. Period.


Seeking a handout?????? Pull yourself up by your own bootstraps and write a check to private school, MAGA man!
