Anti-Israel Group Advising California School District Teaches Third Graders About ‘Decolonization’
“honor the labor and knowledge of an Indigenous person or person of color who fought for racial justice”
This is political indoctrination. What else would you call it?
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
They Teach Third Graders To ‘Decolonize’ Themselves. They Also Advise a Prominent California Public School District.
For most kids, third grade is spent learning concepts such as fractions, long multiplication, and telling time to the nearest minute. For the Liberated Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum Consortium, an education consulting group, it’s spent pursuing a different topic: decolonization.
That’s according to a Liberated Ethnic Studies lesson plan titled, “Who are my people?” The plan calls on third graders—typically between the ages of eight and nine—to embrace their “racialized self” and “honor the labor and knowledge of an Indigenous person or person of color who fought for racial justice.” It also presses students to “understand that we are on a journey to decolonize ourselves as holistic human beings, through critical consciousness, radical hope and self-love.”
Such lesson plans are common for Liberated Ethnic Studies, a group of “expert educational practitioners” working to bring “educational equity” to K-12 schools in California. While the group does not publicly list its partners, at least one prominent Golden State district, Berkeley Unified, counts Liberated Ethnic Studies as a “thought partner,” superintendent Enikia Ford Morthel said during a congressional hearing last week. The district has worked with Liberated Ethnic Studies for more than a year to implement a “model ethnic studies program for elementary through high school” at a cost of more than $111,000, records obtained by the Washington Free Beacon show.
The revelation reflects the extent to which K-12 public schools around the country have become infused with left-wing ideas on race and gender.

I thought part of the woke doctrine was the Indigenous Right of Return. The Jews are the Indigenous people of Israel, and they have the remains of a 4000-year-old temple to prove it.
That’s DIFFERENT!!!
Whites and “people of color” (I guess that means everyone else) are flawed human beings and, while civilization involves cooperation and mutual help, it also involves competition for resources.
Now please explain, without accusing anyone of made up nonsense like “colonialism”, why a white person should particularly “honor the labor and knowledge” of a non-white person trying to take his resources.
You know what an average third grader knows about “decolonization”? That it’s a word on their spelling test that they got wrong and hate the teacher for it.
