I hope this news about the Middle East gets the attention it deserves. It's astounding on so many levels. And just think how many people died because of Kushner's handling of the pandemic.
As for Critical Race Theory, Fox News has turned it into just another bogeyman, a wedge of manufactured hysteria to further mislead and divide the country. Who would have thought that teaching the truth about America's original sin of slavery and how it so adversely affects the country today would actually provoke more racism and hate.
So we pay teachers poorly, expect them to do double work during the pandemic, order them to teach from a racist perspective, then bodycam them for constant oversight. Welcome to the modern plantation.
Florida will be next. Commisioner Corcoran is pleased about Desantis “abolishing” Critical Race Theory from curriculum and advancing it as law. According to him, it makes it easier to “police” teachers.
The ONLY reason I restrain myself from feeling too violent is because of their idiocy. They confine everything to the “curriculum” which is what legislatures target. Nowhere do they talk about pedagogy which relates more to instructional approach. Already teacher and civil organizations are subtly responding already to teachers. Critical Race Theory has never been in the curriculum because it can’t be. I was an educator for years and adapted this theory and SIMILAR THINKING in my instruction because it’s always been important for me to achieve equity in my instructional approach to appeal to and reach all students.
Wow!! I don't know whether to put this in the 'stupid' pile or the 'ludicrous pile? This just cries out for massive snark, but I will restraint myself (at least for right now).

You know we've reached peak crazy when there's a push in Nevada to force teachers to wear body cams to ensure the public will know if they dare teach Critical Race Theory. https://apnews.com/article/government-and-politics-nv-state-wire-nevada-race-and-ethnicity-racial-injustice-6185b8f9c5b56e1fa1347b7f4a203a52

R U serious? WTF?
All too serious. Here's another article which contains more detail than the AP article. Sorry about the source, not usually the most balanced but it's worth reading in this case. The comments are disturbing as well. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9677295/Nevada-group-wants-teachers-wear-body-cameras-stop-CRT.html

Sadly I do not think we have yet reached the peak. 😥
