Schools push a curriculum of propaganda
George Will:
The real vocation of some people entrusted with delivering primary and secondary education is to validate this proposition: The three R's -- formerly reading, 'riting and 'rithmetic -- now are racism, reproduction and recycling. Especially racism. Consider Wisconsin's Department of Public Instruction. It evidently considers "instruction" synonymous with "propaganda," which in the patois of progressivism is called "consciousness-raising."
Wisconsin's DPI, in collaboration with the Orwellian-named federal program VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America; the "volunteers" are paid), urged white students to wear white wristbands "as a reminder about your privilege, and as a personal commitment to explain why you wear the wristband." A flyer that was on the DPI Web site and distributed at a DPI-VISTA training class urged whites to "put a note on your mirror or computer screen as a reminder to think about privilege," to "make a daily list of the ways privilege played out" and to conduct an "internal dialogue" asking questions such as "How do I make myself comfortable with privilege?" and "What am I doing today to undo my privilege?"
