Black Mother UNLOADS On Government Destroying Her Kids
In recent years, we’ve seen a rise in what’s been called “Critical Race Theory” (CRT) in our classrooms. This ideology encourages students to judge each other based on their skin color, and it’s been met with criticism from parents, teachers, and policymakers alike.
The latest example of this is a video that recently surfaced on YouTube. In it, a teacher is heard telling her students that “the color of your skin matters” and that they should “judge people by the color of their skin”. It’s a disturbing example of the kind of messages that children are being exposed to in our schools.
Kofi Montzka, an attorney and mother of three boys, spoke against House File 1269 in a Minnesota House Education Finance Committee.
The legislation would require an ethnic studies curriculum to be taught in schools, and it would require the commissioner of education to “embed ethnic studies” into the state’s academic standards. The Minnesota House of Representatives has packaged this with other education-related measures in the so-named Omnibus Education Policy Bill.
“You might ask: why in the world would a black person speak against ethnic studies? Because not everything that sounds good is good,” she said. “The definition of Ethnic Studies right there in the statute says that there’s a connection between a person’s race and their stratification. The bill tells kids of color that they are stuck in a caste system based on their race.”
Motzka said that she was “sick of everyone denying the enormous progress” that has been made and accused lawmakers for trying to bring back a race system.
This kind of rhetoric has no place in our classrooms. We should be teaching our children to look beyond skin color and to appreciate each other’s unique backgrounds, cultures, and experiences. We should be encouraging them to challenge their own assumptions and beliefs, and to think critically about the world around them.
Instead of teaching kids to judge each other based on the color of their skin, we should be teaching them to value and respect each other’s differences, and to celebrate their diversity. We should be teaching them that everyone’s life experiences are valid, and that we all have something to learn from each other.
Instead, the left wants to drive down all progress and drag our children into the Jim Crow area. These are the same officials who are pushing to resegregate our schools and push for 'all-black communities' which they claim is to benefit the black community but that's BULL.

The media, our politicians, and our officials are creating a divide that we have long since healed. Telling people that they're evil based on their skin color, or that they're owed or disadvantaged because of pigment is critically damaging. Especially to vulnerable young minds.
