Excuse me?? What the hell? So now we are going to try racism in reverse??

I am NOT going to feel guilty because of the color of my skin. Everyone on here has an incredibly short term memory so I will
remind you of the words of Martin Luther King Jr "....I look to a day when people will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character.


How is it "reverse racism" to acknowledge privilege? Let's look at that quote you used. MLK was saying he looked forward to a day where black people weren't judged inferior and white people superior just because of their race. You are not being judged or held back if you openly acknowledge that you have had an edge, even if you had hardships, because you are white.
Why do you find this so offensive?
Also, I would not really use MLK's words, because I sense you think he was all peaceful kumbaya and you have serious misconceptions about what he really argued for and wanted.

Any threat to counteract racism/white supremacy is reversed racism to the white supremacists. They specialize in deception and love to pretend to be the victim.

The Leadership Academy, who got about 50K to communicate with FCPS constituents about the new anti-bias, anti-racism policy. 50K for that!


Don't forget the 4 year multi million dollar critical race theory contract that did not go through a formal review or bidding process according to officials at gatehouse.

Fcps said the $$$$$ contract was awarded through an informal" process.


Why all these secret measures? And lies?


I wonder if how they awarded the contract violated district policy.

This is where FCPS is already heading: https://www.newsweek.com/research-article-medical-journal-describes-whiteness-malignant-parasitic-like-condition-1599129

It's going to take some serious organizing and electing far better School Board members than we currently have to avoid this type of "scholarship" from continuing to shape FCPS's pedagogy.

Everyone becomes a bit more conservative when the policies implemented by the people they vote for start impacting their own kids.


No. I have noticed this too. It does border on hysteria. The OPenFCPS folks seem to be using DCUM and these forums as their own propaganda forum. There is almost no thread that isn't full of people frothing over Omeish, masks, the school board, math, lazy teachers, or race.

In the meantime, I have yet to see any of these angry parents PROVE that FCPS is in a decline or not teaching their kids. They just focus on false dichotomies. FCPS students are overwhelmingly getting into good schools and moving on to good things (oh wait--I forgot! that's not the schools. That's Kumon and supplementation. Sure)



The right-wing "frothers" are outmatched by left-wing wokenazis. So there's that. In fact, one of them admits to not having any children but spends 23:50 hours a day on any TJ-related board.

How about you PROVE that FCPS schools are racist and have extra money lying around to spend on this nonsense? How about spending that money on strengthening education at the K-8 levels? Oh wait, if you do that, you can't blame the TJ admit process as being "racist" and water down the selection criteria. Got it.

FCPS students ARE getting into good schools and moving on to good things. I AGREE. Just want to keep it that way!

In Texas, Florida and elsewhere.. this will be the trend. As the Republican (if they ever) purges themselves of racists like Trump and returns to their conservative/religious roots, they will begin to attract Hispanics and the not-poor/rich-aspiring POCs. Too much of what's happening in VA, the tide will turn.

The conservative and religious roots are the racist roots of the U.S. which was built on racism and is so racist that it keeps welcoming/allowing the immigration of not white people, allowing them to become citizens allowing their children to be citizens by birth and then electing said citizens who then get to tell everyone how the U.S. is racist evermore yesterday today and tomorrow and into infinity and it needs to be torn down and it's foundation destroyed.

What are you even talking about?

Outcomes will never be the same until some people start taking more responsibility for their lives and those of the children they choose to bring into this world. Deep down, the CRT crowd knows this, but their nihilistic, scorched-earth approach got some of them tenure, so they have no incentive to tone it down.

Yes, until parents actively teach their kids to be anti-racists, we will continue to have generations of racism who deny systemic racism.

Take some responsibility for your kids, people!

Speak out against something that’s not happening?

(Nice unbiased Fox News piece)

Exactly, there nothing (yet) to speak out about - just some annoying parents projecting their fears on others.

Someone is in denial. That ridiculous survey, which multiple School Board members are now conveniently disavowing, is both a reflection of where FCPS has been in recent years and a harbinger of where it’s going unless parents continue to speak up.

All i can say is after watching our fd up SB since September 2020 and knowing the and continue to degenerate. So grateful we can leave VA and Fcps - i cannot have our kids go through this woke bs equitable system. I wish those who have no choice the best.

Either you didn't get my point (i.e. if left-wingers keep pushing a woke agenda, they will lose people to a mode moderate Republican party) or you need to work on your writing skills so I can understand yours!
