While documenting my former high schools attempt to indoctrinate me with critical race theory six years ago, I remarked that now, several years later, the situation has undoubtedly worsened. Worsened it has. Now,Campbell Union High School District has promoted more than 100 equity resources to students and staff, including a document that taught students how to put a curse on those who say all lives matter.
The page serves as a vast library for CRT resources and features 60 different links, including a Google Drive folder with 45 different documents.The list made sure to include the full range of CRT buzzwords, with links like Raising Race Conscious Children, the infamous 1619 Project, Anti-Racism for Beginners, andSocial Identities and Systems of Oppression, among others.
One link takes you to anAnti-Racism Resource List, which teaches about white fragility and claims that racism can only be perpetrated by white people. One of the resources provided was a Trevor Noah speech labeled Why rioting makes sense, followed by an unhinged anti-white rant from Sonya Renee Taylor, demanding that white people throw your white body on police officers and put their bodies on the line for the purpose of justice.
The list also addresses white people when it says, We are socialized into white supremacy from the moment we are born before going on to sayIt is about completely dismantling how you see yourself and how you see the world, so that you can dismantle white supremacy.
Samuel Martin graduated from CUHSDs Branham High School in 2019 and was appalled by the districts actions. He told The Federalist, The idea that white students must dismantle themselves in the context of their personality is cultish. Not only is it cultish, but it is deliberate in that this school system wants its white students to hate themselves. Do these people honestly think that drilling racial identitarianism into childrens heads from a young age is going to make them less racist?
CUHSD also links to theBlack Lives Matter Resource Guide, specifically their section labeled high school, which itself includes 45 different texts. Amid a wide variety of CRT inspired assignments is a document that includes writing prompts on police brutality and racist violence.
One section titled Hex tells the reader, Hexing people is an important way to get out anger and frustration. It becomes increasingly deranged, suggesting that those who say all lives matter or commit microaggressions, should be targeted. Write your own hex poem, cursing that person, it instructs.
When asked her thoughts on the document that instructed K-12 students to use witchcraft on political opponents, Branham teacher Meredith Allen told The Federalist she hasnt read the documents her district recommends, so she cant comment, but that she is generally opposed to the all lives matter message.
Another section labeled A World With No Police cites police and military as systems or institutions that contribute to oppression. It asks What would the world be like without them? before telling the reader to write a poem discussing a world without these institutions.
The Black Radical Tradition, is a 565-page e-book that includes articles from the Communist League and Noel Ignatiev under the pen name Noel Ignatin. Ignatiev was a Marxist whoargued that abolishing the white race is so desirable that some may find it hard to believe that it could incur any opposition other than from committed white supremacists.
Then theres a slide show entitled What is the Black Lives Matter Movement? which is made for children and was produced in part by teachers at LAUSD.It includes a glossary of terms like white supremacy, the definition of which includes the line, systems, like schools and jails, have white supremacy built into them because white people have had so much power for so long.
The ADLs linked document George Floyd, Racism, and Law Enforcement defines racism as the oppression of people of color based on a socially constructed racial hierarchy that privileges white people, a definition that reinforces the malicious lie that white people cant be the victims of anti-white racism.
Another ADL resourcecondemns colorblindness and provides carefully crafted methods to indoctrinate white students with the idea that they have privilege without incurring backlash while a Racial Equity Resource Guide advertises the White Privilege Conference.
The districts equity resources page is just the most visible result of a series of steps in support of CRT that started long ago. In fact, the district was a testing ground for CRT before it spread throughout the nation. The book Research Studies on Educating for Diversity and Social Justice was published in 2018 and describes the process. An entire chapter, written in part by my former teacher, is dedicated to discussing how CRT was used at my high school so it could be replicated.
The book noted the use of the theory, saying, CRT is used here to centralize the discussion of race and racism at Branham High School. It went on to describe an equity advisory class that I was placed in as a sophomore, where Students learn about the different types of oppression along with the privilege it affords the oppressors.The authors hoped their tactics would spread, writing, the intent behind sharing the process Branham underwent is to provide a model that could be followed by other schools across the nation.
The districts Board of Trustees supports this agenda, recently offering unanimous support for a resolutionresolving to dismantle institutionalized racism in our society and our school district and is committed to implicit bias training, Ethnic Studies, and resources that foster dialogue around the guiding principles of #BlackLivesMatter.
Note the districts adoption of the term equity rather than equality. Heressuperintendent Robert Bravotwo hours and 39 minutes into a board meeting saying he believes equity is about equity of outcomes.
CUHSD even established an Anti-Racism Team, which is divided into eight Equity Teams that include teachers, principals, administrators, and even two students who must be BIPOC. That means white students are banned from the Equity Teams. Theyre tasked with challenging imbalances of power and privilege, among other roles.
Michael Espinoza is a member of one such Equity Team and a teacher at Branham High School who won the districts teacher of the year award. Here he is calling a Native American tribe the rightful stewards of the lands our schools and district offices stand on and telling teachers to recognize the power of critical race theory and use it in our lesson plans.
He also gave a speech to the class of 2021, where he levied leftwing complaints against America and quoted Huey Newton, imploring students to engage in revolution instead of conforming to the machine that is the United States. On his Instagram account, Espinoza celebrates mandates for ethnic studies classes and complains of living under white supremacist, heteropatriarchal rule in a plea to his co-conspirators.
If this is CUHSDs model teacher, what does their model student look like?Espinozas students created a variety of leftwing postersin his ethnic literature class.One poster demanded Dear White PPL: Start Listening, Stop Talking and others that said Wear UR F-cking Mask and Give us back our land.Principal Lawton took down the posters amid outcry before caving in and apologizing to the leftwing agitators.
The full ramifications of our education systems descent into leftwing radicalism is yet to be fully realized, although we can be certain that many of the students it doesnt lose to homeschooling will be successfully transformed into co-conspirators. But as the rhetoric of revolution becomes standard for stodgy school administrators, its appeal to youth might wane.
Conversely, they run the risk of creating a small but clever cadre of conservative youth who understand from firsthand childhood experiences the consequences of toxic racial grievance politics.Dont be surprised if the propagandizers who intend to give permanency to left-wing hegemony instead give rise to a nascent conservative political force that will uproot it.
Update: After publication, CUHSD removed the Black Lives Matter Resource Guide. CUHSDs original equity resources list can be viewed here.
