[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. I believe in diversity and equity. The way it is pushed these days is more like a religion where other opinions are not allowed (look at the Hamline University debacle.. I am muslim and every muslim I know thinks what happens is insane). I am a person who is an admirer of Edward Said's book Orientalism as well as the People's History of the United States. I am Arab so am staunchly anti-imperialist. But I think schools have gone overboard. Also there is very little critique of class. I get it - they are private schools. But it is hypocritical to be pushing all of this and ignore the class aspect.

My kids are young - Kindergarten and first grade so they haven't been exposed to a lot of this yet. But I am worried that there is some indoctrination going on.[/quote]

There is no indoctrination going on or is it treated as a religion.  You sound like FOX news. [/quote]

This is the problem. Every response to a critique of what's going on mentions fox news. I'm not republican. I don't watch fox news. In fact I hate them - they are racist, islamophobic, and support numerous wars in the Middle East. What is happening is not normal. Again, did you hear about the Hamline University incident where they fired a professor. Thankfully, the largest Muslim organization in the country also criticized Hamline University. The Right jumped on the issue and criticized Islam but if you read what the student actually said, you will see her using all the woke buzz words.[/quote]
