You can buy the soul of a college dept. chair for $28k per year...?
That is freaking pathetic.
Anyone with insight on how Common Core with help end “White Privilege” should offer up their insight.
Dumbing us all down is the obvious answer but I suspect something more sinister.
>> Teacher Admits He Helped Write Common Core To End White Privilege
Suggesting *quality* education results in White privilege?
Is the idiot’s point really that absurd?
One of my best friends is a teacher who’s been teaching for 15 years. She submitted her resignation recently because of Common Core and told me that many others are doing the same.

It seems to me that Barack Hussein Milhouse Obama is the benificiary of white privilege based on his lifestyle and coverage by the advocate media. Perhaps it’s that “negro dialect” he sports when needed.
Perhaps "Dr" Pook, *YOU* were given a lot of privelege you didn't earn, but it takes a lot of gall to insist that every 'white male' has likewise been such a beneficiary. Not all of us have had it easy-peasy, pal, and I resent the HE** out of you insisting that I have.
I look down at the 'turkey tracks' inside of both elbows, and am reminded how I got them (no, not the 'usual' way of shooting up heroin, not putting drugs *into* my body, but taking stuff out, like blood plasma twice weekly for years, just to have gas money to keep working two jobs, while going to school full-time). I can place my hand on a hard lump on my lower chest, to remind me of the day I gambled my very life, and lost it, in an industrial accident. It was by the very grace of G-d Almighty Himself, I am here to tell *that* tale, as I was sent back from the very dead.
These are more than the scars of life itself. They are a set of receipts, marked "DUES PAID", as husband, father, and citizen. If, and when comes the day, "Dr", that *you* can claim a set of receipts such as mine, then, and only then, will we have a basis for discussion of 'privelege'. Until then, pour yourself a nice, steaming hot cup of STHU!!

Another self loathing liberal projecting his psycho-pathology on the rest of us to make us fit in his world view.
But he , nor his school, use the CommonCore standards. Go figure !!
Another lib escapee from Taxachusettes , but can still see it over the next rise .
Sooner or later , New Hampshireites will reclaim their state motto:
" Live Free ,..or die !!
The majority of home schooled and private schooled kids are white. The top students in America are Asian. The lowest performers are blacks and browns how does this elevate them?
The longer I live as a white male, the less I give a sh#t about what everyone else thinks of me. This is how Leftism backfires.
This “white privilege” c**p really chaps my hide. They’re getting more and more blatant with their hatred, jealousy and discrimination. What’s next?
Common Core will use the same tactics as Obamma Care. Set up to look like free market solutions, but with the government “Progressives” gradually changing things until the government runs, and decides who is worthy of health care. In the schools it will be incremental change to teaching leftist government worship and religious hatred propaganda. These progressives are patient and have a long-term goal “evolution not revolution” just like Chavez did.
oh, I see. Dr. Polk decided it would be deviously entertaining for himself to set up teaching methods that would confuse even the brightest white student so as to crush their ambition and self-confidence and make them more amiable to confessing their guilt at being born white. Got it. Jail him for child abuse.
“...does not use them on the student body...”
He wrote them for the hoi polloi and those down on lower rungs of the social ladder.
What you’re seeing here is parallel to the antisemitism of the late 19th century. Like the Jews before them, the “white male” is being targeted, successfully, as not only the cause of social problems, but also as unfair recipients of wealth and status that have been “stolen” from others around them. Right now it seems like quirky bullshit from fringe thinkers and wacked pseudointellectuals. The idea is taking root that white males, and especially Christian white males, are undeserving of what they have.
If you talked with European Jews in 1870, most would concede some animosity and hatred, but they’d probably disbelieve that their neighbors, colleagues, coworkers, and families would someday round them up in mechanized genocide. (Russian Jews would believe it.)
We’re seeing the first baby steps of genocide. And although I don’t have any knowledge of this, I would bet there were self-hating Jews, just like this self-hating educator, who thought that all they had to do was express guilt and they’d obtain penance.
The good news for the haters, of course, is that it’s a lot easier identifying a person by skin color than it is by ethnicity. No need for yellow stars this time around.
God help us.
I got screwed. Never recieved my white privilege package in the mail.. I complained to Rush Limbaugh but he said they are on back order and there was nothing he could do...
The sooner the better.
