Is it offensive to say that the Baptist preacher Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. was a Christian? Is it wrong to suggest that people left Britain to discover America because they wanted more religious liberty?

Well, leftist activists find problems with these references and more in the proposed instructional materials that are being reviewed by the Texas State Board of Education (SBOE). As you may have heard in our team’s testimony at the SBOE meeting in June, there is one publisher who believes that reading religious texts can help increase reading comprehension and an appreciation for many common phrases cited in literature and history.

However, the “Left” thinks that the mere mention of religion is turning the classroom into Sunday School! This is nothing new— these same activists asked for “In God We Trust” to be removed from the Social Studies TEKS back in 2021!

The SBOE will be voting on the instructional materials in September and they need to hear from supporters of religious freedom like YOU! (More details to come soon).

This week we released a breakdown of the report that has been cited in the news lately claiming that the religious references are inappropriate. Read about it here.

Side Note: Monday night, the Texas Values team showed up at the Llano County ISD board meeting to support local Llano resident Bonnie Wallace who was challenging an inappropriate book in the school library. Bonnie gave a 15 minute presentation as part of the Level 3 Grievance process where she read explicit portions from the book “Crank”. Unfortunately, the Llano ISD board vote unanimously to keep the book in the library. To see footage from the hearing, visit our Texas Values Facebook Page: facebook.com/texasvalues
