Speaking of the teachers unions, what do they envision as a proper curriculum?
- ...For example, in July 2021, the Detroit Federation of Teachers settled a contract with the school district that created a “School Equity Lead Supplemental Position” to support and facilitate “culturally responsive teaching strategies for teachers.” Candidates for the position are selected by the district’s office of equity, advocacy, and civil rights, and must complete anti-racism training at the “Summer Anti-Racist Institute.”
- Then there’s the National Education Association. The union has just released a statement, in which it insists that climate change must be taught in every subject including “science, social studies, visual and performing arts, and world languages.”...
