A public elementary school in Washington, D.C., gave children as young as 4 a lesson on "anti-racism" that asked them to identify racist members of their family.
According to a Nov. 30 letter from Janney Elementary School Principal Danielle Singh, students in Pre-K through 3rd grade participated in an "Anti-Racism Fight Club" presentation by speaker Doyin Richards.
Richards’ "Anti-Racism Fight Club Fistbook for Kids" explains that "white people are a part of a society that benefits them in almost every instance," and that "it’s as if white people walk around with an invisible force field because they hold all of the power in America."
"If you are a white person, white privilege is something you were born with and it simply means that your life is not more difficult due to the color of your skin," the "Fistbook for Kids" explains. "Put differently, it’s not your fault for having white privilege, but it is your fault if you choose to ignore it."
The "Fistbook for Kids" says anti-racism "isn’t a spectator sport" but requires "being loud, uncomfortable, confrontational and visible to ensure change is made."
A series of questions in the book asks children, "Where do you see racism in yourself? This requires true soul-searching. Be real with yourself, don’t feel guilt/shame and own it. It’s the first step in becoming an anti-racist."
Under a section titled, "How to deal with racism from loved ones," the book teaches children that "just because someone is older than you doesn’t mean that they’re right all of the time."
"If someone doesn’t believe that people should be treated equally based on the color of their skin, then they are the problem. Parents need to stop making excuses for that behavior if they truly believe in anti-racism," the book says. "Who in your family has racist beliefs? Do you think you can change their ways? What is your strategy for dealing with them?"
After the presentation, the school sent parents a resource link directing them to Richards’ original "Anti-Racism Fight Club Fistbook" for adults, which declares that "racism is as American as apple pie and baseball."
My goodness, this crap is everywhere!

Commenters claiming to be parents at Janney Elementary complained about the Nov. 30 presentation and the "Fistbook for Kids" on the "DC Urban Moms and Dads" online forum.
"Anyone else’s Kindergarten kid freaked out by an anti-racism assembly today? My kid needed to sleep with a light on and the door open tonight," one person posted anonymously. "Anyone know what specifically was talked about? My kid couldn’t relay much except that she was scared."
It seems in Progressive la-la land, if you are lucky to survive being born into the world, you will either be groomed for sexual perversions or to be an "anti-racist"...
As bad as they try to make it sound it’s a wonder minorities that believe this trash aren’t flocking to leave the country. Instead non-whites are flocking into the country. Legal and otherwise.

Someone needs to get the word out to them about what a horrid, evil, racist country this is.

Money plus the notion that at least we won’t be on the bottom, like those blacks, is plenty enough for them.
Black immigrants like to make sure you know their immigrants and not lowly African Americans. It’s odd that the exact inverse of this plays out in Europe.
I don’t like the idea however, that some circles believe kids are able to handle complex social dynamics like this. Whether it be racism or sex awareness.

Prejudice and tribalism is something that's historically been ingrained in the psyche of human beings since we were cavemen as a defensive mechanism against potential enemies and rivals of our group. In that respect there's some merit but the insinuation of America as being some rare outlier in a sea of tolerance and intercommunal unity is patently false.
The white privilege angle doesn't hold up when analysing the average per capita achievements of groups like East Asians and Jews. If they're referring to our system of governance then my question would be to them what do they expect? The United States modelled itself after the Reniassance, Magna Carta and English Common Law.
Eventually these types are going to cause a massive collapse and they won't have the white people that built everything they take for granted to lean back on to get all their welfare handouts.
I'll give credit to the groups that ended up being slave labor in our capitalistic pursuits though in foreign countries. There's a lot that goes on behind the scenes in making that Tesla or iPhone that even liberals don't want to acknowledge happens.
Progress comes at a price. Eventually that progress could lead us into a new era where we can have machines take care of our needs, but not if here in the 2020's we go on some marxist attack of all the institutions doing the inventing and innovation. It could cause progress to come to a screeching halt, and plunge us back to the dark ages if they are not careful.
What is it these people want? More handouts to do nothing? I'd imagine that is their real goal... GIVE ME SOMETHING FOR NOTHING! MORE MONEY! OINK OINK! First we need to invent the robots that can take over all human labor, and then we need to make sure they don't gain sentience and kill us all. Then we can worry about UBI and the new era in human evolution.
Great post above mine also. Basically these people don't have a leg to stand on. They get paid to be activists and spout nonsense.
The wealthy are majority socially liberal. They can continue handouts forever if they wanted to.
