Thank you my friend CWO4 Terrence Clark for making us aware about the biased powerpoint presentation at Great Neck North High School of the New York high school teacher's "The teacher requests that the class take a pledge, agreeing to "confront our own roles in a racist system," "commit to calling out our own racist tendencies and those of others, even at the expense of exposing white fragility" and "to view antiracism as a lifelong process that we will work toward relentlessly."'

This reminds me of of own county - Loudoun County, Virginia which came to the national news attention about Critical Race Theory.

I support history teaching by unbiased teachers and relying on primary sources and well-documented secondary sources to present

America’s two largest teachers’ unions, the American Federation of Teachers and the National Education Association, have officially endorsed teaching critical Race Theory in K-12 classrooms, and are campaigning to push the use of critical pedagogy in lessons and activities in the name of social justice. Both the AFT and NEA misrepresent the concepts at the heart of CRT, and minimize the toxic approach as simply “teaching accurate history.” This is far from the reality of CRT, and this video attempts to clarify the issue by asking AFT President Randi Weingarten, and NEA President Becky Pringle, 10 questions about their support and endorsement of CRT.

'The presentation further alleged that white people "harbor significant fragility when discussing race" before claiming that such "manifestations of fragility" include getting defensive or angry, experiencing guilt and becoming tearful.
The Powerpoint also featured a slide on the "Functions of White Fragility," which included hijacking a conversation, protecting white privilege and taking race off the table.

that is such BS. I am sick of hearing this crap show me people in chains or being beaten for drinking out of the wrong water fountain. I think its time to stop blaming others including rich blacks for your problems. The race problem has exploded with the Dems as well as Biden and his crew

Democrats need victims to save and when racism goes away people will have to get into schools and jobs based off merit and character. They really do not want racism to go away and along with it their free pass.

Most people did not notice, but Trump got more of the black vote than any republican candidate and what catch phrase all of a sudden popped up, systemic racism. The left has to keep the black vote on their side and fear is one way to keep them in line.

I can kinda see it. Roads are now racist, trees are now racist and all little white kids are born racist. It is not the facts, but what "you" see when you're "awoke".

"Awoke?" LOL that's not even a term anyone uses but "woke" in quotes is some boogeyman term the right uses along with "communism," "socialism," and "CRT."
