Podcast: Education in FocusPublished On: Wed May 29 2024
Description: Notable author and outspoken scholar Ibram X. Kendi told educators and others in a taxpayer funded equity webinar Thursday that influencing school systems offers a “bigger bang for your activism” and said "antiracist" education should start before age 3. A Wisconsin state agency paid Kendi $15,000 using federal special education funding for a wide-ranging one hour and 15 minute “generative conversation” on antiracism. During the conversation, Kendi said kids should be getting an antiracist education and the current education system damages children. Another presenter, Laura Minero, told educators and equity workers that “we want our children to be queer” and stressed the importance of gender-affirming care, which has been prohibited by dozens of states.Full story:'Antiracist' speaker calls schools 'dangerous' and wants to drive out those who ban booksTaxpayer-funded equity event tied invention of 'gender binary to anti-Blackness'
