Two months ago, a dad in New York City wrote a letter to parents of students at his daughter's private school. It voiced the alarmed concern of many of the school's parents. It went viral.
He objects to the school's empty claim to favor diversity. If it really did, it wouldn't work so hard at indoctrinating students and families to a single mindset.
He objects to the school's empty claim to favor equity. If it really did, it would cease preferring rich and connected students for admission.
He objects to the school's empty claim to favor inclusiveness. If it really did, it would not teach that there are just two groups in this country, the oppressors and the oppressed.
He objects to the school's support for the Black Lives Matter organization. He objects to the censoring of good books simply because of dated language. He objects to grade inflation and reduced standards for classwork.
He objects to the school teaching racism while it claims to favor anti-racism. Its policies are "misguided, divisive, counterproductive and cancerous." And he calls on other parents to speak up.
