A group of 162 principals and assistant principals at Minnesota schools has invoked the late civil rights icon and former Georgia congressman John Lewis to push their goal of “de-centering Whiteness” in education.
The “Good Trouble Principals” describe themselves as “a loose collection of local principals bound together by a commitment to changing our nation’s future by engaging in better, more equitable education practices.” […]
The letter states that the principals intend to do that by “de-centering Whiteness” and “dismantling the practices that reinforce White academic superiority” — which allegedly include standardized testing and “an Americanized version of a caste system in our schools.” […]
The principals group also accused Parent Teacher Associations and teachers unions of promoting White supremacy.
“Traditional organized Whiteness ensures domination through forms like PTAs and Unions,” the statement reads. “We purposefully call out and lift up historically non-represented voices of color in our spaces to hold weight and power.”
Melander Friestleben said such groups have played a role in attempts to preserve segregated schools and to remove “contracted teachers of color without due process.” …

Why do these woke fools keep their jobs?
Unions??
De-nitwiting of people who’ve bought into race grievance hustling is all but impossible for once someone goes nitwit they hardly ever recover.
They are going to attack the Teachers Unions? Gads, who do I root for?
Have all these white principals offer up their resignation?
Oh goody, a new racist phrase de jour. Public education administers and teachers have gone insane. Pfft.
Parents who truly hate their children, send them to Public “Schools”.
Too bad these clowns didn't decide to raise up the Negro children to be able to compete in a modern world. Dragging others down is not raising up anyone. Asians don't have any special "gubmint pogrums" yet they exceed in academics, besting just about everyone.
When violent thugs like George Floyd are raised up as role models for Negro youth, then you will get more George Floyds.
Separate school and state.
They must have a different kind of union from what exists in Chicago, which is pretty much a Marxist front.
Minnesota seems to be doing all it can to eliminate Whitey, so this is not needed.
All this proves academia is the problem not the solution.
Academia is broken; perhaps irreparably.
Principals aren’t union.
Minnesota used to be such a nice place. I wouldn’t live there on a bad bet. I may never return for a visit.
Pass the popcorn, please!
Rather than “whiteness superiority”, why not focus on “those who are inferior” and the causes of their perceived inferiority.
Do we want to pull down the superior or do we want to raise up the inferior?
Minnesota wants to join Oregon as a paragon of ignorance.
Not that white supremacy even exists but how the heck could unions help it?
From the article:
“The principals group also accused Parent Teacher Associations and teachers unions of promoting White supremacy.”
I didn’t think it was possible for the teachers’ unions to do wrong in Dimmicratland. Minnesota must be run differently from Commiefornia, where the teachers’ unions have Newscum by the balls.
