A Wisconsin high school is under fire after parents discovered that the ‘American Diversity’ class taught students that minorities had historically been oppressed by white people.According to handouts obtained by Fox News, ‘white privilege’ in the class was defined as a ‘set of advantages that are believed to be enjoyed by white people beyond those commonly experienced by non-white people in the same social, political, and economic spaces (nation, community, workplace, income, etc.’‘They’re teaching white guilt,’ one parent said. ‘They’re dividing the students. They’re saying to non-whites, ‘You have been oppressed and you’re still being oppressed.’’ MOREthank you Brian
Wisconsin High School Course Indoctrinates Students on White Guilt (Update)
By Brendan Pringle
The latest case of blatant indoctrination has been uncovered at a public school in Delavan, Wisconsin.
Delavan-Darien High School is currently offering a crash course on critical race theory under the clever guise of “American Diversity”. The course is part of the school’s “Education and Training” Career Cluster, which seeks to prepare students for the world of academia and other education-related fields.
But rather than offering students a survey of the richness of our nation’s diversity, the course promotes none other than an “us versus them” mentality, and requires its students to read divisive materials from some of the Left’s most radical mouthpieces.
As a preface, the students were given an uncited definition of “white privilege”:
In critical race theory, white privilege is a set of advantages that are believed to be enjoyed by white people beyond those commonly experienced by non-white people in the same social, political, and economic spaces (nation, community, workplace, income, etc).
This was followed by a series of materials that elaborates on the problem of “white privilege.”
One of the handouts was a published newspaper article by University of Texas professor Robert Jensen, who suggests that any argument against racial preferences exposes the ingrained prejudices of our society. The article also argues:
“Until we let go of the fiction that people have complete control over their fate – that we can will ourselves to be anything we choose – then we will live with that fear…There is not space here to list all the ways in which white privilege plays out in our daily lives, but it is clear that I will carry this privilege with me until the day white supremacy is erased from society.”
