A recent resolution by the Georgia Education Board (GEB) throws out the Critical Race Theory (CRT), preventing it from being discussed in state schools. This move is a reaction to the criticism on CRT, including from members of the black community. Such an action was given kudos by Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp last Thursday.
An attempt to subvert children
The GEB throws its weight against Democrats for allegedly pushing a quasi-Marxist agenda that is dangerous in schools, reported the Epoch Times.
Kemp approved the decision. He posted on Twitter, I commend the State Board of Education on voting today to forbid the instruction of Critical Race Theory (CRT) in school classrooms. He added, That it is anti-American and should be forbidden in the state of Georgia.
ATLANTA The state Board of Education voted Thursday to essentially endorse Gov. Brian Kemp’s opposition to teaching “critical race theory” in Georgia schools, despite criticism it would muzzle open discussion of America’s history of racism.
A resolution board members passed 11-2 declares the board’s belief that the United States “is not a racist country, and that the state of Georgia is not a racist state.”
The five-page resolution goes on to oppose any use of public education resources to “indoctrinate” students in any political ideology or theory or accepting either federal or private funding that require teaching that anyone is inherently racist or inherently a victim of racism.
IN this short series about the uniquely Scottish not proven verdict, I have reached the stage of the controversial trial that led to the acquittal of Alfred John Monson on the charge of murdering Lieutenant Cecil Hambrough in 1893. For me, even more than the case of alleged poisoner Madeleine Smith – probably the most famous or infamous trial ever to end in a not proven verdict – the Monson verdict proves how unsatisfactory is the “bastard verdict” as it was called by Sir Walter Scott. Next week I will give my conclusion as to whether Scotland should switch to guilty and not guilty verdicts or continue with not proven as a second form of acquittal.

In its release on Friday, the Citybood group included a photo of Gavalis receiving an award from State Sen. Kay Kirkpatrick of East Cobb upon being named the “Distinguished Older Georgian 2021” by the legislature.
The Cityhood bill filed by Dollar (

SACRAMENTO (CBS13) – From happy to headache, Brian Kinney settled into his new apartment after selling his home at an incredible price.
“The market’s actually quite nuts right now,” he said.
Kinney got nine bids on his house ending up with $70,000 over asking. It sounded like a great spot to be in – until he went to buy a new home.
“We actually called about one house that went on the market, and in 12 hours, it was off the market because they had an offer in all cash and for something like $100,000 over,” he said.
