"Teacher of the Year" quits over Common Core tests

Being against a "celebration of what is coarse" is not necessarily a political position in the US, although in this context, it likely is.


Where did this come from? I'd like to see it in context.

^^^I'm guessing they're referring to things like books by Nobel-Prize-winning author Toni Morrison.

^^more likely something like the "live sex show" that got the president of WM fired a few years ago. Felt kind of sorry for the guy--caught between the first amendment and something that was really "coarse"..........

A long list of things they oppose, including "Celebration of what is coarse", "Anti-capitalist, anti-democratic, and anti-freedom orientations", and "“Multiculturalism,” “diversity,” “sustainability”".

Maybe everybody has an agenda, but they really, really, really, really, really have one.



Everyone knows the right wingers play games with definitions. Anything that might threaten the wealthy and powerful 1% is portrayed as "anti-capitalist, anti-democratic and anti-freedom" these days...
