A parent in Naperville, Shannon Adcock, said she became aware of “culturally responsive teaching” when she was unsuccessful in running for the school board. She said the more she learned about it, the more she felt it was regressive and divisive by teaching children race or gender directly impacts outcomes. “You are having students segregated by their color, by their sexuality, by their any number of filters that an activist teacher can choose and say ‘so because of your skin color you are a problem, because of your skin color you will never make it in life, because of this intangible systemic problem in one of the greatest countries in the world,’ and to me, it’s to me extremely anti-Americanism, it’s anti-child and I believe it to be child abuse,” Adcock told WMAY. “Teach history, there’s no question about that, but when you begin filtering students, this becomes a problem and it’s a violation, a constitutional violation.” She said the curriculum can take many different names and forms, so she and others seeing similar trends in other parts of the state started the website AwakeIL.com as a way to share information with taxpayers, parents and educators about trends around the state. “We are going to preserve the integrity of our constitution, state and federal, and we’re going to take that divisive curricula and segregationist approach to education out of our classrooms,” she said.)

The large crowd had gathered early to get on campus before the Secret Service and local police cordoned off the area. The crowd made it to a few hundred feet from the school, while many other people lined the streets surrounding the campus. Many protesters carried “Trump 2020” and “Trump 2024” flags. There was a large sheet banner reading “Make America Proud Again,” and others with the words “Secure Our Borders,” “Biden Take Off Your Mask,” and “Trump Country.” Two men with bullhorns led the crowd in chants of “Trump Won” and “Biden Lies.” The crowd started out vocal and loud, but grew quiet into the afternoon. A few Trump supporters picked fights among themselves, while several Biden supporters stood on the fringes watching. Trump supporters far outnumbered those who were there to support Biden. . .They objected to giving Americans two free years of community college education. “More like free indoctrination,” Fred Bock told the Northwest Herald. Many Trump supporters shared doubts about the 2020 election results and whether it was fair.

Republicans are running on culture, while Democrats press economics. – Daniel Henninger https://www.wsj.com/articles/welcome-to-the-equity-war-11625696029 (FROM THE ARTICLE: President Biden outputs executive orders like a popcorn machine. His latest bucketful goes a long way toward clarifying the politics of our time. On June 25 Mr. Biden issued an order to “advance diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility (DEIA) in the federal workforce.” Meaning every nook they can find in American life. A phrase like “diversity, equity, inclusion and accessibility” is what’s known as a political narrative—a brief, repeatable description of political goals whose implicit message is: Who could be against this? It is not an overstatement to say the future of the world will rise and fall on whether these pablum-like narratives can be turned into hard policy. “Save the planet” was one of the most successful. Rising alongside is DEI (“accessibility” is a Bidenized addition). Set aside the D- and I-words. The battle of our time is over the E-word—equity. Unlike diversity and inclusion, both unmeasurable sentiments, equity is an economic concept. It posits that some have more economic wealth, and some have less. The “some” may be individuals or nations. Equity’s goal is to impose policies by fiat intended to close “disparities.” The power of the equity narrative is that it can be applied to anything, insofar as most of life can be divided between more and less. Such as the Covid-19 pandemic. According to multiple recent news stories, the distribution of Covid vaccines has become an equity issue. “After monopolizing initial production,” the Washington Post asserts, “rich nations have made only limited progress toward ensuring an equitable global distribution of vaccines.” It says both the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank are warning of a “two-track global recovery that would widen the economic divide between advanced and developing nations.” “Equity” is wealth redistribution, or soft socialism, repackaged as happy talk. But this is a conversation worth having. Equity talk is an opportunity for clarification about which policies are pie in the sky and which work.)

POLITICO ILLINOIS — FROM THE ARTICLE: Republican state Rep. Dan Brady hasn’t entered the race to lead the Secretary of State’s Office — he’s still considering it — but a poll he initiated shows him just five points behind Alexi Giannoulias, a frontrunner in the Democratic race. . .Though Brady edges Giannoulias downstate — 21 percent to 14 percent — both politicians would have some heavy lifting to do in the southern part of Illinois. Poll numbers show two-thirds of downstate respondents had never heard of Giannoulias or Brady. The poll also has numbers on Gov. J.B. Pritzker. It shows 72 percent of respondents in Cook County view him favorably, and 52 percent of those in the collars feel the same. Unsurprising, 38 percent of downstate respondents view the governor favorable — and 51 percent of those respondents see him in an unfavorable light. Pritzker has not yet announced that he’ll seek a second term. – SHIA KAPOS https://www.politico.com/newsletters/illinois-playbook/2021/07/07/secretary-of-state-poll-lightfoot-heads-to-cali-cardenas-political-move-493492

To be clear, Pride Month is not about people. Pride Month is about politics and power. It is about demanding that everyone approve and support the LGBTQ+ movement, which again is a political movement. However, not everyone in Palatine agrees with the agenda of the LGTBQ+ movement. If we wish to live in free and diverse communities, we need to care about freedom of conscience and tolerance. People who are not aligned with the LGTBQ+ movement should not have their town taken over for political purposes one month every year. If individuals want to hang a rainbow flag on their house, that is their prerogative. If businesses want to put a rainbow in their window, that is their prerogative. But the village itself should be neutral and not make proclamations for one side or another. When the village government becomes involved, it puts pressure to participate on those who would rather not. The village in a free society should protect its citizens and business owners from coercive pressures, not encourage them.)

The suit indicates, among other things, that the district stereotyped and divided teachers according to their race. – Sam Dorman (DIERSEN: In 1988, when I was 40 years old, I became an active member in a class action lawsuit that charged my GAO superiors with reverse discrimination, age discrimination, and retaliation.) https://www.foxnews.com/us/evanston-illinois-teacher-lawsuit-equity-trainings (FROM THE ARTICLE: A drama teacher in Illinois is fighting back against what her attorneys say is highly racial content that stereotypes White people and violates the U.S. Constitution. Filed in federal court Tuesday, the lawsuit represents one of the primary lines of attack from activists seeking to combat the influence of critical race theory (CRT) in schools. The Southeastearn Legal Foundation, which is representing teacher Stacy Deemar, is working as part of Chris Rufo’s legal coalition that ultimately seeks to strike down CRT-related curricula at the Supreme Court. For months, Rufo and others have brought numerous school materials to public attention, often inspiring shock on social media. Tuesday’s case seemed to spotlight one of the bolder instances of so-called “anti-racist” education, which critics have described as “Neo-racism.” The lawsuit indicates, among other things, that the district stereotyped and divided teachers according to their race. For example, the district purportedly directed teachers to participate in racially segregated “affinity groups,” which were the subject of a federal civil rights complaint. Although former President Trump’s administration ruled that the district’s use of those groups was discriminatory, the Biden administration suspended that decision shortly after the president’s inauguration. The Evanston-Skokie district (District 65) previously caught attention for a school reopening policy that seemed to favor racial minorities over White students. Superintendent Devon Horton, who is listed along with his deputy as a defendant in Tuesday’s suit, received a wave of backlash for that proposal – prompting the school board to suggest White supremacy was at work. “When you challenge policies and protocols established to ensure an equitable experience for Black and brown students,” the board reportedly said in an open letter, “you are part of a continuum of resistance to equity and desire to maintain white supremacy.” According to the lawsuit, teachers were also instructed to read students the book “Not my Idea,” in which a devil approaches the main character with a “Contract Binding you to Whiteness.” Fox News previously reported on this book when it appeared as a referenced material at a Manhattan private school for young children. The imaginary terms offer “stolen land,” “stolen riches,” and “special favors.” It adds that “WHITENESS gets” “your soul” and “to mess endlessly with the lives of your friends, neighbors, loved ones, and all fellow humans of COLOR.” The end contains a section for signature and notes “[l]and, riches, and favors may be revoked at any time, for any reason.” Tuesday’s filing alleges District 65 instructed Pre-K through second grade teachers to ask students: “What is your understanding of whiteness?” Meanwhile, fourth grade teachers were instructed to ask how Whiteness showed up in a political cartoon. Fifth grade teachers, however, were instructed to preface the book with a statement about White people “play[ing] a big role in the problems of racism today and throughout world history.” Both this exercise and teacher trainings, the suit alleges, similarly associated Whiteness with negative attributes and disparaged colorblindness – a common feature of critical race theory. “Pretending not to see color is called color blindness,” teachers were allegedly told to say. “Color blindness helps racism. . . . Many White people use color blindness to ignore the problem of racism.” Defenders of so-called “anti-racism” or “culturally responsive training” generally argue that the practices help foster understanding and break down systemic biases. On its website, District 65 touts its racial and educational equity policy as a way to do just that. “There are persistent and unacceptable opportunity and achievement gaps for students of color in District 65,” it reads. “The racial predictability of achievement and disciplinary outcomes is attributable to institutional racism, cultural biases and other societal factors. The district recognizes that in order to provide educational opportunities that result in equitable outcomes particularly for Black/Brown students, that it must proactively acknowledge and intentionally address racial and cultural biases, in an effort to eliminate institutional structures and practices that affect student learning and achievement.” “The purpose of this policy is to establish a framework for the elimination of bias, particularly racism and cultural bias, as factors affecting student achievement and learning experiences, and to promote learning and working environments that welcome, respect and value diversity. Further, the purpose is to establish particular actions that District 65 shall take to disrupt the school-to-prison pipeline, to address disparities in educational opportunity and achievement while understanding the urgency with which we must move to support Black, Latinx and multi-racial students. District 65 is committed to focusing on race as one of the first visible indicators of identity while recognizing that the district’s students hold multiple, intersecting identities such as mental or physical ability, sexual orientation including gender identity and/or expression, religion, economic status, national origin and any other personal characteristics.” But critics say these types of materials are a form of indoctrination that violate federal law and the Constitution. Deemar is specifically accusing the district of violating the 14th Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause and Title VI, which prohibits discrimination at federally-funded educational institutions. Her attorney, Southeastern Legal Foundation General Counsel Kimberly Hermann, told Fox News that Deemar was only seeking $1.00 in damages with a focus on obtaining both a declaratory judgement and injunction. “By vowing to define its teachers and students solely by their race, District 65 promotes and reinforces a view of race essentialism that divides Americans into groups based solely on their skin color,” said Hermann. “District 65 teaches its teachers and students that their whole identity comes from the color of their skin. It teaches them to hate each other. It teaches them not only how to be racist, but that they should be racist. This is illegal, wrong, and must be stopped.” Besides Deemar’s lawsuit, others have emerged as apparent legal threats to the these types of trainings. For example, a mixed-race student in Nevada sued his charter school after he was allegedly instructed to delineate which parts of his identity were oppressive. More recently, parents in Loudoun County, Virginia brought a federal lawsuit claiming that the district’s equity ambassadorship program discriminated against White students. Districts across the country have seen similar allegations, with complaints that programs which are focused on “equity” scapegoat White people. Critics like Rufo argue that instead of “equity,” public institutions should focus on “equality” or ensuring the same opportunities among different racial and ethnic groups. This flies in the face, however, of critical race theory, which was formed partly in response to the perceived inadequacies of the civil rights movement. As Tuesday’s lawsuit notes, District 65 explicitly endorses “equity,” which it says “goes beyond the definition of equality – where students are treated the same – to fostering a barrier free environment where all students’ unique needs are addressed and supported by resources which are allocated in a fiscally responsible manner.” The focus on equal outcomes rather than opportunities was purportedly illustrated during “privilege walks,” which asked participants to evaluate their social advantages according to skin color. After scoring certain statements – e.g. “because of my race or color, I can speak in public to a powerful male group without putting my race on trial” – district staff were told to separate themselves with higher scores on the left and lower on the right. They further separate themselves based on additional prompts. “Near the end of the exercise, the facilitator asks all white people standing in line to step forward,” the lawsuit reads.) — Sen.

My Democrat GAO superiors would stress that they forced me to retire in 1997 when I was 49 years old, gave me unfair performance expectations and appraisals, always ranked me in the bottom half of my coworkers for pay-for-performance purposes, did not promote me beyond GS-13, got rid of my mentor in 1987, kept me off audits of IRS for all but 3 of the almost 18 years that I worked for GAO, and forced me to take a $20,361 (21%) pay cut in today’s dollars to transfer from IRS to GAO in 1980. My Democrat IRS superiors would stress that they did not promote me beyond GS-12, disallowed my education deductions in 1978, got rid of my mentor in 1975, and disallowed my partial day per diem claims in 1974. My Democrat Post Office superiors would stress that they forced me to resign in 1969 and disallowed my sick leave requests in 1969 and 1968.

CPA PRACTICE ADVISOR — Leaders from the Black CPA Centennial, whose organizations work to promote the advancement of Black CPAs, offer insights on the present and future state of the profession’s diversity. (DIERSEN: To promote equity is a) to take income, assets, and opportunity away from Whites and b) give the aforesaid to minorities. In 1971, when I was 22 years old, Oldsmobile withdrew a job offer that I had accepted saying that it just agreed to stop hiring Whites to settle an EEOC complaint. In 1997, when I was 49 years old, my Democrat GAO superiors forced me to take their early retirement “offer” and gave my job and my preferred corner office to my Black CPA subordinate.) https://www.cpapracticeadvisor.com/accounting-audit/news/21228318/black-cpa-centennial-promotes-advancement

WORLD TRIBUNE — Team Biden orders race training at all levels of federal government (DIERSEN: How many people do you know who have taken lots of diversity training?
