      SCOOP: A Cupertino elementary school forces third-graders to deconstruct their racial and sexual identities, then rank themselves according to their “power and privilege.” I've obtained exclusive whistleblower documents from inside the classroom. They will shock you. 🧵

      First, the teacher told the eight- and nine-year-old students that they live in a “dominant culture” of “white, middle class, cisgender, educated, able-bodied, Christian[s]” who “created and maintained” this culture in order “to hold power and stay in power.”pic.twitter.com/vxFaDSVl4z

      Reading from This Book Is Antiracist, the teacher taught the children the theory of "intersectionality" and claimed that “those with privilege have power over others" and that “folx who do not benefit from their social identities ... have little to no privilege and power.”pic.twitter.com/GX77Og36Ai

      The teacher asked students to create an “identity map,” listing their race, class, gender, religion, family structure, and other characteristics. They were told to “circle the identities that hold power and privilege."pic.twitter.com/pENBJeZ3cF

      In a related assignment assignment, the children were asked to write short essays describing which aspects of their identities "hold power and privilege" and which are "oppressed"—in effect, ranking themselves according to the intersectional hierarchy.pic.twitter.com/kAJurjRlAp

      Parents at the school were scandalized. "They were basically teaching racism to my eight-year-old," said one parent, who rallied a half dozen families to protest the curriculum and demanded a meeting with the principal.

          One Chinese-American parent compared the training to the Cultural Revolution: "Growing up in China, I had learned it many times. The outcome is the family will be ripped apart; husband hates wife, children hate parents. I think it is already happening here.”

          Luckily, the group of Asian-American parents was able to shut down the training from the school. But they are worried that the cultural revolution is spreading: “We think some of our school board members are [critical race theory] activists and they must go."

          Only six families protested this?? That is frightening.

          I remember seeing a tweet from a teacher when pandemic first started asking other teachers how they were teaching when they were not sure if parents were in room. This was before everyone heard of CRT

          In my kid's day - the teachers would have them write journals (no harm right?) Until social workers came to your door. CAREFUL All. Times are much more sophisticated.

          Let me know if the parents want legal representation. I’m a lawyer in the Bay Area specializing in school issues I’d volunteer some time to help them.

          And tell me what's wrong with that? That's the reality of our world. You best believe if there are any Black kids in that class they were forced to learn this far younger than third grade.
