james baldwin said a child cannot be taught by anyone who despises him and a child cannot afford to be fooled. as long as teachers turned to gimmicks are not the north start they will never understood understand how they are being fooled by patriarchy, homophobia and classism and how their so-called accountability measures really show dark children how much education despises them. on the campaign trail democrat terry mcauliffe has pushed back on this issue. i m sick of them talking about these issues of critical race theory, we do not teach critical race theory here in virginia, it has never been taught. it s pitting parents against parents and parents against teachers and they are using our children as political pawns and it s got to stop. what this amounts to is the state bureaucracy recommending these controversial teaching tools to all educational stakeholders. sandra: mike emanuel
