This can be shortened to “Forced multilinguism is racism.”

That is, the English language is the ‘lingua franca’ of the world, of commerce, of international travel, of a lot of modern science and technology.

Literacy in the English language is so vital to prosperity in the United States that Noam Chomsky has been able to deny millions of black Americans education, success and self sufficiency, by promulgating his utterly worthless “Whole Language” English instruction on them.

At the time it was invented, black American students had English language skills almost on a par with white students. But after a single decade of being deprived of English language skills, their grades plummeted, because if you do not know English, there is little else you can learn in school.

And Chomsky’s followers, in the face of vast amounts of evidence that Whole Language is an utter failure, still push for its adoption by schools.

So Chomsky can proudly proclaim that he has done more than anyone who ever lived, to oppress and impoverish black Americans.

It can be put quite simply to immigrants: “Learn English or you family will be poor for generations.”
