‘Diversity trainers, both white, were stunned’ when stepson of black father objected
There are reasonable differences of opinion on how to fund public education. But when you want to preempt the argument, just claim your opponents endorse “covert white supremacy.”
That’s how Cherokee Middle School in Springfield, Missouri, chose to steamroll any opposition it might face from teachers who disagree with the contents of its diversity training, according to documents obtained by
City Journal contributing editor Christopher Rufo.
The training includes a list of “overt” and “covert” examples of white supremacy. “Blackface,” “racist jokes” and “the n-word” were listed on the 10-example overt side, while “education funding from property tax,” “all lives matter” and “colorblindness” were on the 23-example covert side.
