Death Of Free Speech

Since moving to Arizona I’ve become involved in local politics. I’m Vice President of Prescott Valley Republican Women. To become familiar with my new town I joined the Nextdoor website and joined three Conservative Groups on the site. I talked about 1619 and Critical Race Theory being taught our children and one of the Conservative groups asked me to start a new group to look into these very controversial subjects. After doing some more research I started the following group:

“IS THIS CURRICULUM IN OUR SCHOOLS?”

THE 1619 PROJECT

The premise of the 1619 curriculum is that America was founded on slavery. Slavery was responsible for everything that made America exceptional, its economic superiority, its industrial strength and its electoral system. It says that the American Revolution was to ensure the survival of slavery not to form a more perfect union and ensure liberty.

This is why teaching the COMPLETE American History is SO important. The Federalist Paper #54 proves their premise wrong. Our founders TRIED to end slavery in their first try in passing the Constitution but the Southern States wouldn’t sign this version of the Constitution. In order to end slavery all the colonies needed to join the union. We could hardly end slavery in colonies that didn’t belong to the union, could we? Read for yourself. https://founders.archives.gov/documents/Hamilton/01-04-02-0203

The curriculum also claims Lincoln opposed Black equality and that Blacks fought for civil rights all by themselves. All one has to do is look at the history of the Civil Rights movement and you see it was the Republican party, Whites and Blacks, who fought for voting rights and civil rights for Blacks with strong opposition from the Democrat party for a hundred years.

It leaves out Fredrick Douglas, Martin Luther King and the voting history of the Democrats in opposing civil rights. Fredrick Douglas called Lincoln “emphatically the colored man’s President”.
It is due to this sort of distorted history being taught our children that has resulted in the tearing down of statues of our founders and renaming schools and buildings. The real goal of this is to erase our history, traditions and culture.

This is extremely dangerous and we need to find out if our local and state wide schools are teaching this and get it removed.Below is the entire 1619 Curriculum for those who want to investigate it themselves.

CRITICAL RACE THEORY

https://www.britannica.com/topic/critical-race-theory

Critical Race Theory claims ALL White people are racist and can’t change. It’s in their DNA. It claims that all our institutions, particularly our legal institutions are inherently racist. Due to this they teach that to make up for the discrimination Blacks have experienced we must now discriminate against White people.

How do you feel about having your children taught that they, and their parents, are racist?
We are seeing corporations have Critical Race training. You might be aware of Coke telling their employees to “be less White”.

This sort of curriculum further divides this country. I believe that IS the goal.

The reality is that before Johnson’s “War on Poverty” Black children were more likely to be being raised in an intact family than Whites. Most were middle class. It was Johnson’s policies that took father’s out of the home and made government the “Daddy”.
We must speak up and actively work to end this dangerous curriculum on our schools.

This morning I got the following message from Nextdoor:

I don’t believe I said anything hateful nor was what I wrote a “conspiracy theory” or “misinformation”. I posted links to the curriculum for people to judge for themselves. I posted a link to Federalist #54 that proves 1619 false.

Critical Race Theory is the definition of hate speech and racism.
Apparently, the truth is now hate speech and parents shouldn’t be allowed to know what their children are being taught. What I find most alarming is that so many are willing to accept this.
