Fifth graders forced to celebrate 'black communism,' hold mock 'Black Power' rally for Angela Davis, define 'communist' in 'favorable terms': report

A Pennsylvania school is under fire after fifth graders were reportedly forced to celebrate black communism and hold a mock "Black Power" rally amid Black History Month celebrations.

What are the details? Students in one Philadelphia elementary school were allegedly forced to celebrate "black communism" and endure a mock Black Power rally in order to "free" Angela Davis, outspoken radical political activist, from "jail."

Christopher Rufo, a contributing editor at the City Journal, detailed the alleged activities — which he says were outlined by whistleblower documents — and said that he spoke with a school source that corroborated the details.

Students at William D. Kelley School were reportedly exposed to the playacting through a social studies class that praised Davis — "the 'black communist'" — for her fight against "injustice and inequality."

Students, according to Rufo's report, were also told to pretend they were participating in a rally to free Davis, who was once jailed — and later freed — on charges of murder and more.

"As part of the lesson, the teacher asked students to 'describe Davis' early life,' reflect on her vision of social change, and 'define communist' — presumably in favorable terms," Rufo wrote for the City Journal. "At the conclusion of the unit, the teacher led the ten- and eleven-year-old students into the auditorium to 'simulate' a Black Power rally to 'free Angela Davis from prison, where she had once been held while awaiting trial on charges of conspiracy, kidnapping and murder."

The children, according to the outlet, were then directed to march around the state holding a variety of signs that read "Black Power," "Jail Trump," "Free Angela," and "Black Power Matters."

I guess they’re saying what’s several hundred million people exterminated and oppressed between friends.

That’s in a very “tan” area. They’ll mostly be dead, in prison, drug dealers, or hookers in ten years.

I love the opening - “A PA school is under fire...” Under Fire from who? Does anyone think anything will happen to the Communists?

Define ‘communist’ in ‘favorable terms’

OK. Communists have killed *more* people on the planet than any other system of government. So they win in that regard.

The Democrats don’t need the black vote any more, now that it’s been automated in the swing states by Dominion, ESS and Smartmatic...

Each one of these instances needs to be called out and the teacher *must* be fired. There *must* be consequences or this cancer grows unchallenged.

They’re importing millions as we speak. It’s all about the birthrate.

Philadelphia? It figures and I would bet that many if not most of those one-parent families would love to have had the opportunity to enroll their child in a charter or private school with vouchers proposed by (still) President Trump. But Biden and his cronies in the teacher’s unions have scorched those plans leaving school age children in failing schools that teach this crap instead of real-world education.

I’m sure the parents proceeded to pull their kids out of the school and made it very clear they wouldn’t return until things changed which caused the school to back down since attendance and funding are intimately tied... Oh... no? What a surprise...

This neighborhood is quite a bit darker than Mexico.

Ah yes, ... Angela Davis, ... she's the Gal who purchased the shotgun taped to Judge Harold Haley's neck five days previous to the Marin Courthouse Massacre.

That's her buddy convict James McClain holding it and a revolver shortly before murdering the Judge and several others August 7, 1970.

The irony is that drug dealers are practicing a very pure form of the market economy - acquire new customers through variety of Marketing vehicles. Get your product to those customers and in the most efficient way possible.

Maybe that’s one reason why we aren’t a free market economy.
We have millions of POS citizens with no morals.
