Critical Race Theory

Over The Target In Rhode Island

By Mike Huckabee

Here’s how you know you’re over the target: Rhode Island mom Nicole Solas wanted to know what her daughter was being taught in kindergarten, so she asked for a copy of the public school curriculum, which she has a right to see. For some reason, they refused to hand over the document. That made her suspicious, so she starting filing Freedom of Information Act requests for more documents. They fought those, and even tried to make her go away by billing her $74,000 for their alleged efforts at having to compile those documents.

Now, the powerful teachers’ union, the National Education Association-Rhode Island, has declared full-out war on Solas and is suing her, claiming they’re trying to protect “private” information. But the emails Solas is seeking were sent on public school servers, which makes them public record (anyone else getting a Hillary Clinton vibe here?) For the record, the NEA backs teaching Critical Race Theory in public schools and boasts that its president, Becky Pringle, is a “fierce social justice warrior.”

Bryan Preston at PJ Media has lots more details at this link:

If the intent was to try to intimidate Solas into backing down, it didn’t work. She’s now represented by the Goldwater Institute, and her response to the NEA lawsuit was, “Game on.” If they were trying to hide public information from FOIA requests, then they’re not going to enjoy the discovery phase of this lawsuit.

Sounds like the self-flattering “social justice warriors” are about to discover what a truly fierce warrior looks like. And by that, I mean a mom who’s being told that she has no right to know what’s being taught to her kid.

I wrote recently about how elected officials in red states need to do more to rein in schools and universities that use taxpayers’ money to hire only far-left teachers and indoctrinate students in radical ideology.

    It is still hard for me to believe the total disregard the left has for the law. To try to deny a parent the right to know what is being taught to their child in a public school is the height of arrogance. All I can say to the school systems is judgement is coming. You think you are above the law but the you are not above the Judge of the whole earth and His judgement is coming soon and His judgement is final.

Fight on and win these marx...ists! can't wait to see what they are hiding....my guess is orders from someone who pays them nicely...Soros comes to mind,.with Obama's help, the destructive snake in the grass!

    It's unbelievable to me that a parent can't see what her child is learning - so they're hiding something which is even more suspicious and to go to the lengths they did indicates a very sick corrupt school system. I hope her suit is successful and I hope other parents in that school are all on her side and giving support.

    They want to brainwash our children with out our knowledge. I'm glad she's standing her ground against this nonsense. I think she should also ask what being taught about what they're teaching about transgender roles. Find out what is on the recommended reading list for your kids. Much of it isn't suitable for their ages and is too graphic for them.
