"When we're only teaching them that one master narrative, that's the master narrative that is around in society too, because they grow up, and then they teach their kids that, and that's how they approach the world. That's how they engage with other people. That's what they see as normal. That's what they see as standard. That's what they see as law. It's all based on white supremacy culture," Shirude explained to the South Seattle Emerald.
This framework has hurt Seattle students.
As noted in Luke Rosiak's book Race To The Bottom, black students' state math exam scores in these pilot programs plummeted to shocking lows. After years of consistent progress at John Muir Elementary, for example, the passing rate for black students fell from 28 percent to 18 percent after the introduction of the ethnic studies framework.
The Vancouver, Washington, school board director moved to dramatically alter advanced classes because too many white kids were enrolled. He would force the higher achievers into classrooms with underachievers to meet the district's equity commitment.
Meanwhile, the Democrat-controlled Oregon legislature passed a law ending a high school graduation requirement that students demonstrate proficiency in math (along with reading and writing) after minority students failed at high rates.
Momentum is on the side of the Left, which seeks to dismantle our education systems and rebuild them on their own terms. They've seen victories in the Pacific Northwest. DeSantis should be lauded for taking them on.

Yep, The Woke ideology doesn't cause harm... Surely DeSantis's popularity cannot be connected to this, in any way.

And yes, kids can and do have confidentiality rights. Should it be illegal for schools to follow the existing confidentiality laws?

So for example, why is it OK to let a trans teenager decide to start hormone treatment to block puberty but it's not OK to allow a male cis teenager who's insecure about being scrawny take steroids to build muscle, get leaner and thereby look more masculine?

If the alternative to being happy with fascism means being called “woke” and being vilified, then so be it.
