They thought they were untouchable, they were wrong. If you support teaching children to be victims, YOU are the problem.
Hear..hear!
God that probably felt SOOOOO good to them
When your childs school is sending out links to free online tutoring because OVER half of their students are failing..You know there is a huge problem and it just aint about CRT.
Children and parents come first. Always.
Children yes - and well behave pparents
I’m a music teacher and I found it really strange that I received a training for music teachers in the district but the newly hired history teachers didn’t receive any support when they were hired. More and more schools are simply eschewing the teaching of history altogether. This will have powerful implications in the future. I’m certain of it. Not good.
What?
@@williejones9530 My mother taught social studies - geography and history - in the 70s & 80s. She saw the gradual diluting and rewriting of history way back then. The MOMENT that Jimmy Carter started the federal "Department of Education," it began.
erasing history is part of the plan for socialism/communism. If you are well read you know that
CRT IS NOT HISTORY. If you believe it is, you should lose your teaching license as well.
Ah yes. Let’s teach something controversial then complain when people don’t like it
For the last 20 years, do you know how much bureaucracy and administration has been hired across public schools? With an increase of teachers and students of approximately 7% bureaucracy and administration has increased approximately 88%. Do you see what is wrong here?
It's so bad
@@MarkSmithhhh which races practiced cannibalism (and still do to this day)? 🤣
Satan loves all this chaos
Satan is a registered Republican.
Which is why I would not even consider raising and having my children in this neurotic country. Great place to work and make a living. But not to raise a family. It is designed to create mindless spend crazy consumers to fill the coffers of the 1%.Meanwhile the only reward is to feed the next generation into either the prison industrial complex or the military industrial complex.
In this case, it is the 'Christians' who are causing the chaos.
😂 lol no Satan got kicked out of this school board!
This is common place in the South, they see nothing wrong with this unless it's one of your own..., WTF ???
*commonplace
Your bias is showing
BRAVO to the new school board! Children will no longer be indoctrinated with radical CRT in the Berkeley County School District, and firing the woke lawyer is just icing on the cake!
Yeah we don't like groomers here.
“A southern man don’t you around, anyhow!”
When the majority voted them in it's OK? But when the majority votes them out it's the end of the world? I'm confused
You need to do more research on what’s happening here bud and it ain’t good
This is I’m white and I say so

Teaching about history seems to be too scary of a topic these days
What history?
@@pizzamagee6220 The complaint is about the teaching of 'Critical Race Theory'.
Which is NOT taught outside of a few college level law courses, despite what people say.
What they mean, is that they don't like students being taught the idea that there has been systemic racism in this country since it was founded. Which is 100% true, it is the true history of this country.
@@mnguardianfan7128 I find it hard to believe that considering every classroom isn't monitored. It's also unreasonable that all classes will or should be monitored openly or secretly.
@@pizzamagee6220 Well, to be honest, I don't think it is that well thought through.
I honestly think that this is almost 100% reactive based on the horror stories they hear from Fox News and other similar news sources.
Now, they may certainly push for a big brother approach.
This is all the Dunning-Kruger effect. People get a little bit of knowledge and then they think they understand it all.
You mean indoctrination and your liberal tears are so tasty XD
Cleaning house can be fun sometimes.
* firing people who have different beliefs than me must be purged in order to make way for patriotic America First-backed employees who don't challenge, criticize, or objectively look at structural problems in our American history or present-day issues. It's the cherry on top that the Moms for "Liberty" group who pushed for the removal of the employees, led to the removal of black workers specifically.
Yep cleaning house could be a lot of fun except for when you're cleaning the house and replacing it with races that are going to teach religious nonsense to kids that don't need to learn not Anna public school.

dont know whats going on but what the old board wanted to teach marxist idiology critial race theory in school and they fired that board i think
Go figure, they fire the black attorney and black superintendent....nothing going on there lol.
If they where not doing the job expected of them then there color is not the problem. If the replacements do the job expected there color will not matter. Bravo to the leadership for there color blind judgements.
@@greybeard933 I am not color blind the slate of people sitting there are not the same skin tone as the two fired.. it isn't a good look. Pretty sure it is going to be an expensive lesson for the district.
@@pambp5978 but, but wacism. 🤣😂
I noticed that as well
@@greybeard933 You have to at least realize the optics were terrible. To make a spectacle of it at a filmed meeting was obviously planned. Just absolutely moronic!
The most beautiful news I've seen in a while. So glad parents are finally waking up and actually getting on these school boards.
To fire black people?
@@teebone2157 To fire incompetent school "leaders." There. I fixed it for ya.
@@teebone2157 omg is that all you see??? look at the bigger picture....look at the students, the happenings, the ACADEMICS with which ARE APPLIED....not everythin is based around black people or white people!!!! so stop that crap! sick of it and many people are as well! We want what is best for our children no matter what the color!
@@teebone2157 make it about race all you want but the fact is every parent voted for those school board members & most members are parents and for 2022 every school board meeting look like an unruly kindergarten class with parent complaints, new people got elected they wanted change it’s just how it works but dive deep in that segregation
so this is what happens when the Klan takes over a school. Hope Teachers walk out and those two Sue the school. Get the State involved in this
Lol. The Klan? In my 42 years on earth and living all over the country, I have yet to see a Klan member. Have you? I hope the teachers walk out too. Then quickly replace them. There are thousands of teachers clamoring for jobs all over the country. Sue the school? Because board members who ran on a particular agenda were VOTED in by a democratically led process and then went ahead with their agenda? Sue for that? You're a little confused.
Jim Crow 2.0.Kind of reminds me of my mother's generation She was born in 1930 Jim Crow Louisiana.White children of her generation were taught that the slaves were responsible for the civil war And that the slaves conspired with the tyrannical federal government to destroy the Southern way of life.That the slaves were ungrateful because their owners gave them free clothing, housing and food.I kid you not.When she told me this I thought she was out of her mind.But then it made sense to understand where all that hatred against the Black people down there used to come from.Religion was no better because some White clergyman preached to their congratulations that Africans were inherently evil because they are the children of the murderous Cain.And thus the descendants of Cain were given the curse of darkness as punishment.
@@frederickgriffith7004 Jim Crow 2.0? Isn't it "Jim Eagle?" That's what my dad Biden said. It's like "Jim Eagle" now. I'm not sure what "Jim Eagle" means, but that does sound scarier than "Jim Crow" and definitely scarier than "Jim Crow 2.0."
I don't doubt your mom's story. My question to you is, what does that have to do with NOW? Honest question.
Again, assuming your story is true, do you think some racist teachers in the south in the turn of the 20th century is a problem in today's society?
@@coryCuc racists or Republicans are always the problem they're the lowest life forms
@@lostsoul6876 Sorry you're so uninformed. On a side note, do you also see Russians hiding behind every bush too?
That's what happens when y'all don't vote
Or when you do vote
Lol, people voted. They just voted against your woke values
Is this cancellation of cancel culture?
So far yes but not yet but this is the beginning!
Doesn’t matter it’s what’s best for the children right!!
It’s sad that my small children will have to learn about race through the media and their schools instead of me as their parent. Right now they see no difference between us as white people and others of different colors. This is the way we have raised them. Now they will go to school and have them ruin good upbringing
There is no political solution
Things become 'political' when enough people make it political.
History is history. The fact that this country was founded on racist policies IS history. It doesn't go away just because it makes some people uncomfortable.
@@mnguardianfan7128 i think he means there is no peaceful solution to these kinds of shenanigans
Great job
If they were not teaching CRT nothing would have been said on this channel?
This is a perfect example of keeping racism and school-to-prison pipeline in our local schools.
They set this up on a political level because they're trying their best to keep it plain Jane.
Lol just like when u put 2 weeks in
Out with the garbage
Good job folks
Was that a joke?

Critical race theory is taught in law school ffs
The version for children is not the same. There is a reason people don’t like it, and it’s the actual content of the modules, not the name.
@@Oceanww people don’t like it because of misinformation
Technically CRT is not taught in elementary or middle school as it is not in any lesson plans etc. elements of it most certainly are. CRT books are in school libraries. My own daughter was subject to the brown eyed blue eyed experiment when she was in 3rd grade. When questioning the VP about it she actually left Ike’s at me and stated ‘this way the white kids get to know what it feels like’.
It’s taught, just not as openly, nor under the same light as the college course would be.
@@rorschachwatchmen4742 Look at the curriculum then.
@@Oceanww what?
I’m from Australia I don’t know what this is can someone explain what a school board is ? And why 2 black peoples got fired? I don’t get this at all? Isn’t there a less humiliating professional way to do things there in Canada or America. What is a school boards job they look like people who want power because they failed so miserably somewhere else
Thank God I have no children.No meat to feed to the wolves.

OMG, I'm devastated! Just kidding, lol, awesome. Get the hate-filled racebaiters out, now. De-emphasize race in all the curriculum, and in everything you teach kids. It should only be included when absolutely necessary, like teaching about slavery.
And the United state’s history of racial oppression after slavery. Jim Crow. Tulsa Race riot. Voting laws barring African Americans right to vote until 1964, and STILL people are trying to make voting for AAs difficult or impossible.
Yeah absolutely none of that should ever be taught. Even tho it was half a century ago. Even tho half those people who participated are still alive. Let’s just forget about America’s racist history and go back to pretending we are a White owned country,Christian, English speaking, and absolutely oblivious to the issues that truly matter.
Edit: typos
Even tho within 20 years, white people wont even make up a majority of the country and white power continues to decrease overtime thank god. The removal of CRT is just another form of trying to forget our awful past. By the way I am the whitest of the white people, Caucasian head to toe, but I have an ability to think.
Teaching kids about history you have to include slavery because slavery is a critical part of this country's history and this world's history and in order to not repeat history you have to learn about history all of it...Not teaching kids about history and slavery is how tragedies like George Floyd happen. Not teaching kids about histories how tragedies like that guy driving his car into a parade in Wisconsin happen... And only people who are racist make statements like the one that you made.
@@moonlightpixie9976 hi, just to clarify, we teach kids about slavery in our schools. We teach them pretty important stuff. Like how John c Calhoun was a major part in the continuation of slavery, the Secession, and the Moralization of slavery through religion (it's common for southern Baptist preachers to get teenagers asking why their church was founded on slavery). You're being lied to. The children in this area know more about our history than most.
And history has nothing to do with George Floyd or Darrel Brooks. One is a man who died at the hands of officers he never should have encountered in a place hundreds of miles away from here due to his own choices and actions. He wasnt a good person, just because he was killed resisting arrest doesn't make him a hero just like putting a gun to a pregnant woman doesn't necessarily make him the devil. And Darrel Brooks? How could that POSSIBLY be related to history?
Good for south Carolina....get rid of the cancer and don't forget the teachers

@@jackiepaper101 So you refer to black people who don't share your political views as "tokens" and it's this school board who is racist and not you?
Is that all you see is Black people? i see a Con/ puppets, sell out especially to his “like you say” Black people 😂... And I would know my kids go to Berkeley High
While i understand that feelings and opinions run high and hot over this issue, i think there are important human behaviors explored. Knowledge about how and why a person feels, says does , whatever is vital for growth. Because humans are societal creatures by nature, of course any person’s hows and whys will be influenced by what surrounds them. ( children learn what they live) . Part of what happens in most societies is the need to identify self verses other. I suppose it was evolutionarily important at some point to identify “the other” becuase usually “the other” posed a threat. So “the “other” is , let’s say, in the collective unconscious becomes equivalent to danger and something that needs to be controlled dominated or removed. There are a myriad of ways “the other” could be defined or identified, not just skin color. I dont think it is about skin color i think it us about how and why humans always seem to create and identify “ the other” and how that insticnt affects the human exerpience depending on whether , at any given moment you are the “other“ that has more power or the “other“ that has less power. I wonder if CRT would be less controversial if the word race was not used. IDK. Anyway that is my two cents based on the little I know which includes watching people with much anger and pain maybe getting caught up in perhaps miscommunication and misunderstanding when really everyone wants the same thing: to have your experience validated and be treated with dignity. I guess ironically what i see is an example of people doing exactly what i think CRT was trying to explain: why we humans are powerfully moved to identify , control, erase… those we see as the “other”. We are all the other to someone and that is also another way that we are all the same.
They won't be able to abuse her son there and she can't have that she needs crt to make her whole that's the disgusting part of it all
You don't understand crt 😭
"CRT" aka black history.
Do what? Abuse her son? Teaching true history is disgusting?
CRT IS NOT TAUGHT ANYWHERE IN AMERICAN PUBLIC SCHOOLS GRADES K - 12. It is taught at the University level, usually in graduate schools. I taught my (white) children at home about how Black People were brought here AND why. I also taught them about how these human beings had to literally fight and die to even have the same equality of primary education as white children, fight to vote, fight to illuminate racial disparity at every level at every point in time here, in America. I also taught them about the Holocaust, Pre-Roe, and all the rest of the dark past these people want to 'spare' children from. I didn't spare my children and guess what? They don't treat others like crap; they have empathy, compassion and they seek to understand other cultures and traditions. Let these children learn about history so us humans can continue to evolve out of barbaric cruelty.
What did you say?
This is what happens they made school board meetings look like an unruly kindergarten class all of 2022, new people were elected & they wanted change. Make it about race all you want but every parent voted for that school board...
And after finding out they were racist and groomers, they voted them out.. it's their prerogative
