“Hillsdale College — which Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas called “a shining city on a hill” and which hired his activist wife, Ginni Thomas, to help establish a full-time presence in the nation’s capital — has became an important force in that movement under the leadership of Arnn, who has allied himself with former president Donald Trump. The college has helped launch dozens of “classical” charter schools across the country (Hillsdale doesn’t own or operate the schools but trains faculty and staff and shares curriculum) — and, now, at Lee’s invitation, Hillsdale is helping to open at least 50 charter schools in Tennessee. Charter schools are publicly funded but privately operated.”

“The charter schools use a Hillsdale K-12 curriculum that is centered on Western civilization and designed to help “students acquire a mature love for America.” A Hillsdale K-12 civics and U.S. history curriculum released last year extols conservative values, attacks progressive ones and distorts civil rights history, saying, for example: “The civil rights movement was almost immediately turned into programs that ran counter to the lofty ideals of the Founders.” Hillsdale College itself offers a “classical liberal arts core” to its students; the website lists more than 30 authors and thinkers that students will encounter — nearly all of them White men”

While there is still not a single K-12 school that teaches CRT, conservatives are openly attacking education and rewriting history. On one hand, I’m impressed they were able to make Dems out as CRT monsters while they were the ones doing the actual manipulating of history. On the other, I’m so embarrassed for my friends and fellow voters in VA that fell for it.[/quote]

Ummmm... thanks but... my kids don't go to charter schools[/quote]

But if you live in Virginia, this is what Glenn Youngkin is trying to do to schools. He preyed on white moms who were scared about their kids' education during the pandemic and now he's taking advantage of them and using them to set his own agenda. You'll see the changes this year.[/quote]

This is all part of the GOP master plan which includes curtailing women's civil rights and providing indoctrination for the Christian Theocracy.[/quote]

Well then get out and vote. Last I checked women are more than half of society. Could have elected anyone you want. I'm an atheist and hate the GOP's backwards religious thinking. However, there are other issues that are important to me and so I was regrettably forced to vote GOP[/quote]
