The author of the article cites a few Washington DC schools:
“Georgetown Day and Sidwell Friends here in D.C..”

It doesn’t seem like any of these schools hide the fact that they embrace diversity and equity , etc. I think it’s great that many schools are embracing these things. If a person doesn’t like a school’s ideologies they can obviously pick other schools..

It’s about more than embracing diversity and equity. It really is o er the top breeding of social justice warriors to a ridiculous degree—only for the most privileged trust fund children who can afford it, natch. I’m a liberal btw.

Lets not go too far here. They may embrace diversity, but their entire existence is premised on helping their students avoid equitable outcomes.

Precisely. Don’t get carried away.

These schools would do much better to teach their students the truth which is that every wealthy society and sector of society has gotten there by exploiting another class or nationality or strata of people; that cheap labor is the foundation of prosperity for a minority; that historically the cheap labor has been black and brown people and women (and also poor white people); and that they are on a proving ground / training ground for becoming overlords themselves.

Not this nonsense that any Western society has ever achieved excellence while not also building on a foundation of abuse, bc it just isn’t true.

No no no.

Much more manipulative and powerful to never teach context or ways of the times or what was paralleling in Asia or the Incas or tribal Africa and solely focus on Evil Whites who Came to North America. They invented slavery and indentured servitude and crop sharing and economics and trade and the caste system and bloodline royalty and taxes and schooling. None of that existed anywhere in any society ever before. Certainly not for 1000s or years everywhere else. And certainly no where today….

Great point.

The Aztecs were essentially the Nazis of the 15th century. So when a few years ago the new (far left) Mexican President came to power and asked Spain for historic apologies and reparations for having conquered Mexico, you know what happened?

Many non-Aztec Mexican groups attacked the President. Why? Because it was THEM, with just some aid by the newbies, who had defeated the Nazi Aztecs who had killed thousands and thousands of their children and enslaved thousands and thousands more.

You won't learn in US textbooks oh no.

US textbooks should cover atrocities committed by indigenous residents of 15th century Mexico?

I learned all this in middle school Spanish class.

About 95% of Hispanics indentify as white.

In the last census something 45% Hispanics identified as white, and 45% as mixed white/ indigenous.

And no, this isn't the result of massive rape. After a couple of decades Spain recognized indigenous tribes as citizens, same as any other citizen of the kingdoms in Spain, and encouraged interracial marriage.

Imagine if the population of today's USA was 45% white and 45% mixed white/ indigenous (also implying very little historic slavery). We would have had several Presidents with indigenous roots.

Why didn’t the indigenous people thrive enough to have 1 billion people by 1400s like they did in India and China by then? The numbers, advancements and technology were never there.

You think woke prep schools teach kids that there is a Western society that was not built on a foundation of abuse? Which society? What are you talking about

No the problem is that they seem the teach that it is possible to have the society without the abuse. It isn’t. Capitalism is an engine that requires a sink. That sink is the underclass. It is a crucial part of the system. Globalism was simply an effort to outsource the underclass. It also resulted in a poor white underclass here at home in former manufacturing centers. The point is that schools are teaching people to be very pampered about their sensitivities as if it’s possible to eliminate all offenses. That attitude is a marker of immense privilege—privilege that rests on having a trust fund. I’m not talking here about basic civil rights, or general inclusiveness. It’s the notion that you can expunge all ideas that offend you.

You seem to have quite an agenda. Please tell me about the non-Western, non-capitalist society in which no one was ever exploited.

(I think *you* need a broader view of history and a better understanding of humans and their evolution.)

Where in the above does it say that in non white non western societies no one was ever exploited. In fact please show me the advanced society that did not reach its dominance through some form of exploitation.

It’s beyond diversity and equity. Its a religion

And for Sidwell at least "equity and diversity" is about African Americans. Asian Americans. Latinx, Hispanic Americans are not in the picture for the administration, as much as they pay lip service to them.

Good point but don't use that Latinx thingy. Most Hispanics hate it and see it as an insult by detached anglo wokes.

This is actually true. It’s a gendered language and a gendered culture and the Latinx thing is stupid given that the entire language has male and female nouns.

No no no.

Much more manipulative and powerful to never teach context or ways of the times or what was paralleling in Asia or the Incas or tribal Africa and solely focus on Evil Whites who Came to North America. They invented slavery and indentured servitude and crop sharing and economics and trade and the caste system and bloodline royalty and taxes and schooling. None of that existed anywhere in any society ever before. Certainly not for 1000s or years everywhere else. And certainly no where today….

Ok so half of that 90% indentify as having indigenous heritage in addition to their white heritage and the other half indentify as just being white. Got it!

What’s your point? Whether they are white or brown they are Latino/a. Just bc someone is white doesn’t mean they are WASPs.

Last I checked China was a sovereign state for like 2000 years. Brits never colonized China. Only Hong Kong.

Hong Kong may be wishing England was back. Hasn’t been
