I can speak from first hand experiences in what has been omitted, white washed
into the "America is a bad country" story or history rewritten altogether in battling the curriculum at my son's middle school. He is in 8th grade and there has been no teaching on Pearl Harbor, the Holocaust, the war for our Independence, the French-Indian wars, World War one and two, Korea, Vietnam(we were wrong and are bad people). Get the picture? In almost every event mentioned above the United States was the bad country and that we should be ashamed of our past history and actions. My son was sent home from school during last year's elections because he said some negative things about Obama. In essence, my son was punished for telling the truth. The school districts policy on Obama and his election was that as the first black, negro, Muslim president, there was nothing bad about Obama. No negative comments or views were tolerated. Let's just say I changed that policy the next day with the help of our family attorney. It is happening all across our country.
Jerry Rubin has done an excellent job in what is happening in our public schools and western society. This is a good report he has written and it dovetails in very well with the facts of being politically correct, honoring diversity and multiculturalism at all costs, and the erosion of our school systems and society.
A Mystery: What's Happening in American Schools and Why Aren't Parents Aware of It?
Posted: 11 Jan 2010
By Barry Rubin
As I contemplate what’s happening now with American schools and Western society in general-- especially ideological indoctrination by schools and seeming parental indifference to it—I’m reminded of a relevant, true story.
It was in the 1870s or 1880s, a time with many parallels to today. Peretz Smolenskin, a Russian Jewish novelist, editor, and Zionist, was then living in Western Europe. A wealthy Russian Jew visited him to ask advice on what to do with his daughter. She’d been radicalized in school and joined the terrorist revolutionary movement, the People’s Will, which idealized the Russian peasantry. Members were assassinating officials and many were sent to Siberia or executed. The man complained bitterly about his problem.
Smolenskin tried to be sympathetic but was rather irritated and so ended up being quite blunt. The real cause of such problems, he told the father, was a failure of parents, not children:
"How did you bring up your daughter?....You sent her to high school, where she learned about other peoples. Did you teach her about our own people? Did you teach her our own language? Did you interest her in our own history? Did you want her to know about our own people and our own national aspirations? To whom, then, should you bring your complaints, if not to yourself?"
In other words, if you end up being shocked at what your children think doesn't this have something to do with what you have, or haven't taught them?
Responding to my "Life in an American Fourth Grade" series, a number of people in different parts of the country have written about their experiences with public school. One had been told by a student also in the same county school system the following exchange:
Question: What did you learn about WW II?
Answer: About the internment of Japanese-Americans.
Question: Did you learn about [the] Pearl Harbor [attack]?
Answer: No.
Ask yourself why this is being done. In my son's class they read not one, not two, but three books on the internment of the Japanese residents or citizens on the West Coast. It certainly would have been possible to teach about the Pearl Harbor attack; the courage of Americans on Bataan and on Wake Island; and other such things. Why not teach both? (My son says that the Pearl Harbor attack was mentioned in class but only to set the background for the internment.)
But the Pearl Harbor attack creates a problem for the dominant ideology today. It is a case of another, non-white nation attacking the United States. Anyone might conclude that Imperial Japan had acted in a cowardly and dishonorable manner by such a sneak attack in the midst of diplomatic negotiations. Such an attitude could lead to the PC sins of “racism,” “xenophobia,” and “patriotism.” Might someone draw a parallel between December 7, 1941, and September 11, 2001? These were “dangers” to be avoided.
The same applies to Japanese torture of Western prisoners, most known in contemporary culture through the film “The Bridge on the River Kwai,” about the building of the “Death Railway” in China. There is a huge body of evidence about such things, which led to the executions of a number of Japanese officials after World War Two on war crimes’ charges. But, again, to show a non-white, non-Western country acting in such a matter might make Americans look down on a differentt, non-white, non-Western society. Parallels to contemporary terrorism and decapitation of Americans kidnapped in Pakistan or Iraq?

Kick A Black Day!
From Monkey in the Middle.
I am surprised this was not
an event sponsored by the
White House and the Obama
administration. Please, read
on. What if this had happened
to a Muslim, Black or Hispanic
student?
Ten students at a Florida middle school were suspended after district officials say they participated in "kick a Jew day."
District spokesman Joe Landon says a Jewish student at North Naples Middle School reported being kicked on Thursday. The school's principal addressed the entire student body the next morning and asked for anyone with information about the alleged attack to come forward.
The district determined that 10 students should be punished. They each served one day of in-school suspension Monday.
Landon says the first 20 minutes of the school day, which is normally used for reading and tutoring, will now be used to teach students about respect, kindness and ways to prevent bullying.
No criminal charges have been filed.
Feel free to contact the school here
or at 239-377-4600. You can also fax
them at 239-377-4601. Have at them.
Go ahead, mess with this Jew.
Note the the last line" No
criminal charges have been filed." Tragic
is what this is.
