New Jersey Passes Bill that Requires "Social Justice" and Racism Education in Public Schools
Recently released video footage shows a teacher in Virginia’s Loudoun County Public School district unable to accept a student’s colorblind approach to a lesson about race.
The video shows the teacher clearly unhappy that the student doesn’t acknowledge the racial makeup of two people in an image shown during a classroom assignment. Instead, when asked what they see in the photo, the student simply replies, “It’s just two people chillin.”
For a class assignment, the teacher posted a photo of two females, one with white skin and red hair and another with black skin and black hair. Students were asked to observe what they saw in the picture.
One unnamed student responded by saying he saw “just two people chillin’.” The teacher called the student “intentionally coy” for not categorizing the women by their race.
After the student repeatedly noted that he saw just “two people” in the photo, the teacher said, “I don’t know why you do this. I’m not trying to call you out, but you … you act as if there’s nothing noticeable about this apart from the fact that there’s two people.”
The student responded, “Well I’m confused. Are you trying to get me to say that there are two different races in this picture?”
To which the teacher said, “Yes, I am asking you to say that.”
“Well, at the end of the day, wouldn’t that just be feeding into the problem of looking at race instead of just acknowledging them as two normal people?” replied the student.
“No, it’s not,” said the teacher. “Because you can’t not look at, you can’t look at the people and not acknowledge that there are racial differences.”
According to the Daily Wire, “far-left” school board member Beth Barts attempted to deny the school was teaching about Critical Race Theory—a radical Leftist theory that claims race is a social construct that oppresses minorities.
In a post on Facebook, Barts addressed the video and said, “For the parents who emailed us about the slides from a high school class that they felt indicated LCPS is teaching Critical Race Theory and demanded we seek answers.”
“The video (that has now made its way to social media) is an excerpt of a class discussion in a ‘Dual Enrollment College Level English course’ (note the college) in which students were exposed to different literacy theories as a way of critiquing different pieces of literature. CRT was an example of a theory that can be applied to literary criticism. Other theories such as structuralism, deconstructionism, and feminism were also shared. LCPS is not teaching CRT nor has our staff been trained in CRT,” she continued.
