Elite K-8 school teaches white students they’re born racist

[mrclose]

Liberals bringing segregation back to a school near you!

An elite Manhattan school is teaching white students as young as 6 that they’re born racist and should feel guilty benefiting from “white privilege,” while heaping praise and cupcakes on their black peers.

Administrators at the Bank Street School for Children on the Upper West Side claim it’s a novel approach to fighting discrimination, and that several other private New York schools are doing it, but even liberal parents aren’t buying it.

They complain the K-8 school of 430 kids is separating whites in classes where they’re made to feel awful about their “whiteness,” and all the “kids of color” in other rooms where they’re taught to feel proud about their race and are rewarded with treats and other privileges.

You know, it's crap like that which is feeding the group of the KKK and other white supremacy organizations. Kind of a self fulfilling prophecy. Call enough whites racists and eventually some will gravitate to those who sympathize with them.

Good way to resuscitate the KKK and 4th Reich.

To tell these white kids that not only are their teachers abusing them but it is whites who are superior (easy to make the argument -- who built modern civilization?) will be a VERY attractive idea that will be embraced.

These idiots are teaching these kids to resent and hate.

All children are born racists, it's natural to coalesce into groups that look like yourself.


Several studies of  toddlers have shown that they tend to sort themselves out into playgroups based on race when there are more than a few of each race in the group.

Jeez... Former Mrs. Wiggum taught Elementary school at an elite private school.  She was not as conservative as myself, but even she would find that outrageous.

Good way to further racism and hate. No surprise coming from the left.

As soon as I saw the title my thoughts were, in this order, "NYC, California (the loony-left parts), or Chicago". Certain patterns are rather recognizable and predictable.

Forcing people into damned-if-you-do-damned-if-you-don't situations never turns pout well. In this case, it will take but a few race-baiters preaching this @#$% to get the kids into us vs. them thinking, and then, as was said above, the race-baiting preachments will produce what was preached.

For some strange reason, people being verbally clubbed over the head resent the clubbing and turn on the ones doing the clubbing.

I need to check with MineralMan to see if white privilege is an "actual fact".
