[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Snapshot of current culture. I received this recommended book list from the Parent-Teacher Association (APT) for my Spring Break reading so I can become indoctrinated into Leftist orthodoxy. It's not enough that they brainwash my kids on a daily basis, parents must bend the knee as well.

And, the irony that this reading list telling me to get woke was compiled and emailed by a group of white SAHMs who live in $1M+ houses is not lost on me.

What is even more telling about the school's culture is the lack of an alternative point of view on this list - for example, from an African American such as Shelby Steele from Stanford University.  If you (or your child) have a different opinion, keep it to yourself or leave.  Your child's grades will be hurt by your alternative point of view.  [/quote]

This is our experience as well.[/quote]
