Today’s entry:
I see that Fox has published about the pushback from parents regarding Equity in SDPBC and the
false, untruthful
reply from School Board Chairman Frank Barbieri who said that the SDPBC’s statement was ‘intended to show the board’s dedication to improving equality’ in Florida public schools.
This is true disinformation as
equality and equity are in opposition
. He may be attempting to calm less informed parents who haven’t discovered the meaning and intent of equity (versus equality).
If this was not EQUITY related, then why was Keith Oswald given the new ‘critically important new assignment’ as the
"The School District of Palm Beach County is committed to dismantling structures rooted in white advantage.” That line has parents in an uproar, but others say it's the equity statement in its entirety that should not be in place.

A special meeting of the Palm Beach County School Board will be held this week to discuss a new equity statement that was just approved a couple of weeks ago.
Parents are upset about a line that reads: “The School District of Palm Beach County is committed to dismantling structures rooted in white advantage.”
Parents spoke out at last week s meeting when the topic was brought up after midnight. We should not be ashamed from what the color of our skin looks like. We are children of God.
Board Chairman Frank Barbieri spoke out in favor of changing the wording.
