The 1776 Commission: When Fascism Comes to School - Passing Period #21
Description
This Week: The escalation of hostility towards the teaching of truth about America’s history of racism continues, as Donald J. announces not only the intent to defund those schools and institutions teaching critical race theory, but the establishment of a “1776 Commission” to “promote patriotic education.” Queue Orwellian nightmares now. Manuel and Jeff discuss educators’ collective responsibility to push back against the white-lash and uphold the foundational values of education, like truth, honesty, dignity and respect for all.
