It is widely accepted that American public schools are controlled by liberals. It seems like every day, we see new examples of American schoolchildren being indoctrinated with left-wing ideas.
This latest example was brought to our attention by a concerned parent.
Kindergarten students from PS75, a public school in New York City, recently took part in a class project in which the children were made to create an American flag with the flags of other 22 other nations superimposed over the stripes. Below the flag read the words "We pledge allegiance to an International Flag."
Check out the flag the kindergarten class created:
The flag is being auctioned off as a way to raise funds for the Parent Teacher Association. According to the description offered on the auction site:
The students made a beautifully painted stretched canvas American Flag and then applied flags from all the Spanish speaking countries onto the stripes of the American flag. All the children chose a flag to color using colored pencils and they were glued onto the larger American flag. The stars are cut canvas which are painted and decorated with REAL Swarovski Crystals (gold and crystal colored)!
The fun quote on the bottom is about unity and creating an environment in which everyone is welcome! "We pledge allegiance to an International Flag!" Our dual language classroom strives to be a place that everyone feels welcome! (Emphasis added)
Although the description claims that the flags are limited to "Spanish speaking countries", the Russian flag is amongst those that are included.
This is the type of globalist indoctrination we have come to expect from the public school system, but telling impressionably young American children that their loyalty should lie with some nebulous idea of a global community rather than their own nation is a new low.

Sounds like a bit much for 5-year-olds.

Terrorism and local child kidnapping by another ploy
Reason #1,924,088 why we home school.
Poor Canada, everyone always forgets about them!
Yieks. That is horrible. Of course a certain candidate not to be named wants a North American state with Canada and Mexico. I would imagine he would approve of this.
I will never pledge allegiance to such a flag.
And if necessary, if it must come down to one, the last flag I would do that to is the Christian flag.
And no Israel.
Far more significant than Canada not being there, the absence of ISRAEL seems a bigger deal to me. Lots of oppressive regimes shown, mind you.
I don’t think that is a coincidence either.
Hegemony! Imperialism! Yankee go home!
Did they snap click their heels and upwardly extend the right arm correctly?
You’re fired!
Today I post in a Central American country. School teachers complain that the history of their country is not taught, only the history lessons of Washington D.C, and all of the kids are suppose to learn English. It goes both ways.
Their problems are their problems.
Disgusting
Cuba’s flag is right in the middle. Must be the teacher’s favorite.
I’m just surprised there isn’t a rainbow flag on that thing........
Post #18: No Rainbow Flag??? The ‘educators’ must add one. They would have made the queer flag most prominent, if only they knew what the word ‘allegiance’ meant.
allegiance n. (1) : the fidelity owed by a subject or citizen to a sovereign or government (2) : the obligation of an alien to the government under which the alien resides. God bless our children...
Not sure how hat any other country does is relevant to THIS topic.
This is about OUR flag, No one is saying to not teach world history are they?
Which Central America country is this? How is what they choose to teach relevant?
