Why, because they ARE white supremacists! And so is "the system" they came from!


Yes, that's all the "evidence" this person needs. To accuse, try, prove, and sentence the parents of being "white supremacists".


Hint: It's also the sum total of the "evidence" the entire "woke" culture has to accuse the entire country of being the same. They are white supremacists because everybody SAYS they are!

No need to point out what they have done that reveals this mysterious "supremacism". No need to come up with actual statements they made, or even thoughts they supposedly thought. Given the present shortage of mind-readers among us, that lack may be understandable. But it is no more "proof" than all the rest of their hysterical vaporings.

If you've been wondering what the "woke" refers to in today's culture, here you have it. "Woke" means I have managed to persuade myself, with no particular evidence or proof, that you are bad, and you don't deserve the respect or effort to prove it, or to let you prove otherwise.

This is the core of "wokeness": You are guilty because I say so. I don't need to support my accusation, I certainly don't have to prove it. I don't even have to be right. You're guilty simply because we say so. You don't get a reprieve. End of story.
That doesn’t matter:

Basic Tenets of Anti-racist Education
 Racism exists today, in both traditional and modern forms
 All members of this society have been socialized to participate in it
 All white people benefit from racism, regardless of intentions; intentions are irrelevant.
 No one here chose to be socialized into racism (so no one is “bad’). But no one is neutral – to not act
against racism is to support racism.
 Racism must be continually identified, analyzed and challenged; no one is ever done
 The question is not ”did racism take place”? but rather “how did racism manifest in that situation?”
 The racial status quo is comfortable for most whites. Therefore, anything that maintains white comfort
is suspect. If you are white, practice sitting with and building your stamina for racial discomfort.

There’s no such thing as “not-racist.” You’re either with them or against them, racist or anti-racist. Not only that but the system is racist and nothing you say can change that. Not only that but you’re also racist and benefit from that white supremacist state. Not only that but your “anti-racist” work is forever and always, you can never look at a situation again and not find the racism no matter how small or slight If you’re doing “anti-racist” work.

If you think we’ve almost plateaued you’d be wrong. In a world ran by anti-racist there will be no discussions that do not include race and that is a “lifelong challenge” that no one can ever be “done with.”

Attitudes such as this "teacher" is why many parents are sending their kids en masse to private schools. Smart move on their part.

These woke people came from the fringes of society but with social media they come to forefront in society and must be fought at every level now!

Disgusting rant from this teacher.

Especially considering that the school districts in CA had no problem sending teachers to the border detention facilities to teach the illegals in person.

Yeah there’s no guarantee there either.

No, that teacher is one of the GOOD whites.

Well the leftists only have it part right which means totally wrong. You're either with us or against us. You are either an anti-white racist or you're not. The left is against us and racist.

Well, I don’t agree with this either. It’s about class not race. It’s also harmful to have lower expectations.
