As we have recently seen, our schools are on the frontlines in the battle for the hearts and minds of our children…
House Republican leader Kevin McCarthy states in his “Parental Bill of Rights” that parents are “fed up” with a system led by activists who want to use American classrooms to promote their liberal agenda.
But these “parental rights” that McCarthy refers to were not written with most parents in mind. If they were, then we’d see laws demanding that schools teach truthfully about the long term impacts of the Native American genocide and residential schools, as well as the truth about black history. If anyone has been indoctrinated by divisiveness or barriers, it has been BIPOC and Indigenous children.
Communities are making strides to acknowledge and reconcile our brutal history with First Nations people. A growing number of districts now recognize Indigenous Peoples Day and pledge to teach accurate accounts of our past. Progress is being made, but we have to keep pushing forward. There are dark forces with dark money working in the dark of night to keep true history from seeing the light of day.
The Six PAC School Defense Fund knows how important the truth is to a promising future and to democracy. Our kids deserve an honest and equitable education. We support progressive candidates running for school board seats across the country who will stand up for truth and inclusion.
An injustice anywhere is an injustice everywhere.
