Leftist State Board of Ed and Lawmakers Collude to Indoctrinate Illinois Students

Conservative parents with kids in Illinois public schools, WAKE UP! Leftists on the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) and in Springfield aren’t anywhere near done with their indoctrination mandates. A new amendment to Illinois State Board of Education teacher standards has been proposed by an ISBE committee to infuse the assumptions of Critical Race Theory, identity politics, BLM, and the 1619 Project into 1. all teacher-training programs/education majors, 2. all Professional Education Licensing (PEL), and 3. all public school classrooms.

In an excruciatingly detailed 2,400- word document, leftists laid bare the comprehensive nature of the indoctrination they seek to mandate. These “standards” will apply to all teachers, administrators, school counselors, school psychologists, school social workers, school nurses, and speech language pathologists.

Not surprisingly, the ten-member steering team of the Diverse and Learner Ready Committee that concocted the new indoctrination standards has three lawmakers—all Democrats (Fred Crespo, Mary Edly-Allen, and Maurice West).

Knowledge of objective facts and the development of the capacity to think logically through critical examination of diverse ideas are relegated to the back of the “education” bus in favor of promoting propaganda about identity, “systems of oppression,” “sex and gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, racism, sexism, homophobia, unearned privilege,” and “Eurocentrism.”

I will attempt to make clear the loathsome outlines and dangerous implications of this proposal while sparing readers many of the excruciating details.

Teachers are expected to accept as objective truth and implement the following: (click on the link for the rest of the article)

Diverse and Learner Ready

The words 'diverse' and 'learner ready' seem to be euphemisms for 'minority' and 'ignorant'.

This is why we’re losing America. The left is committed to the cause, and will stop at nothing to push the agenda.

When was the last time you heard of a school board taking flak for pushing a conservative agenda?

And Trump has a commission putting together a pro America history book for classes.

There is NO DOUBT that biden lost and we may have to watch every single great thing that Trump did get dismantled.

Almost too painful to think about.

I keep praying.

I hope Alito is stil angry about philly not listening to the SC order to let observers get closer

He may still be angry, but that may not matter. What may matter is what the surveillance state has on him to pressure him.
