The Southern Poverty Law Center is seizing on the left’s hard push to embed Critical Race Training in public education. They have rebranded their “Teaching Tolerance” program as “Learning for Justice” and are pushing Biden to implement a “curriculum on structural racism” in the Department of Education.

The SPLC’s Horrifying Plan for Your Children’s SchoolsThe Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), notorious for branding mainstream conservative and Christian nonprofits “hate groups” and including them on a list with the Ku Klux Klan while ignoring the destructive and deadly antifa riots, has adopted Marxist critical race theory and has asked the government to push this noxious agenda in public schools. This week, the SPLC urged President Joe Biden to direct taxpayer funds to develop a “curriculum on structural racism” in the Department of Education. The smear group also revamped its Teaching Tolerance program, which pushes its leftist agenda in schools.In the SPLC’s annual “Year in Hate” report released on Monday, the organization called on the federal government to “address far-right and racist narratives” by providing “funding for the Department of Education to develop a curriculum on structural racism and funding for states to implement their own related initiatives.”“Americans can only dismantle white supremacy if they understand how racism shaped (and continues to shape) housing, education, policing, health care and other policies and practices that affect our everyday lives,” the SPLC report claimed.On Tuesday, the SPLC announced it would revamp its “Teaching Tolerance” program — which spreads its far-left agenda in schools — renaming the program “Learning for Justice.”
The SPLC announcement about this is extremely revealing. Pay close attention to the wording:
Learning for Justice is the new name for our work in the struggle for radical change in education and community!We are called as educators, justice advocates, caregivers and students to reimagine and reclaim our education system so that it is inclusive and just.In shifting from Teaching Tolerance to Learning for Justice, we’re offering an urgent call to action: We must learn, grow and wield power together.That’s how we will make justice real in our lives and in the lives of the students, families, educators and communities we serve.
Radical change? Wield power? Are these the sort of words you associate with your child’s education?
Don’t forget. This is a group that put Dr. Ben Carson on an extremist watch list.
