And as if that legislation is somehow magically self-enforcing. Choice. Competition. Find and advocate for better curriculum. Use existing, constitutionally-valid laws to prevent abuse. There are plenty of tools in the toolbox without resort to broad, vague speech codes.
We don't have "choice and competition" in education; we have a state-run monopoly that is now engaging in widespread racial scapegoating. Telling state legislatures to stay out of the public school curriculum is the height of libertarian naïveté. Detached from reality.
Legislation is a poor tool here though. It's an incrediblely blunt instrument that can be wielded in was its authors never intended. What is the problem, in your mind, with working through State Boards of Education?
Perhaps your goal would more easily be achieved via class action civil rights lawsuits in friendly jurisdictions.
Devil's advocate: Is it though? State laws are sure to be challenged in court. There may be injunctions and it could take years to adjudicate those suits. Even in victory enforcing those laws is not simple. Local activity would seem to be more immediate and effective.
Weird I thought education was a communities decision.
‘widespread racial scapegoating’. What you’re doing best.
It’s no longer a state-run monopoly. It became a union-run monopoly. The state must regain control over the curriculum, and this can only be done through the law.
I daresay in most of the Red states where this is taking off, public employee unions, including teachers, are prohibited by law.
States usually give standards that need to be covered, no one audits schools just rely on testing results, and the local schools can add any curriculum they want. States typically just have methods to measure school success and rules if success isn’t up to snuff for a few years
Local school board still, typically, has the bulk of the power in individual schools
