5 Questions Every Parent Should Ask NATICK PUBLIC SCHOOLS About Its Radical "White Privilege" Curriculum

Natick High School students are indoctrinated in "white privilege" ideology

Last month, we sounded the alarm to Natick parents and taxpayers on the 12th grade Natick High School English course titled "Identity in America"that indoctrinates students in Critical Race Theory (CRT) "white privilege" principles.

Not only is this curriculum divisive and racist, but it lacks rigor because it demands a monolithic viewpoint on race relations. Noticeably absent from the course curriculum are rigorous assigned texts and resources that offer broader and different perspectives on race relations in the United States. Natick Public Schools says it fosters critical thinking and encourages diverse ideas, but the texts and resources that indoctrinate students in "white privilege" ideology and systemic racism claims paint a different picture.

Here are five important questions every parent should ask the Natick Public Schools superintendent and Natick High School principal about its "white privilege" curriculum:

1. Why is Natick Public Schools spending time and resources on politically motivated content when we know our children need high-quality curriculum to succeed? 

2. Why is Natick Public Schools teaching children they are an oppressor or oppressed based on the color of their skin/racial group? 

3. Why is Natick Public Schools omitting books by black authors and scholars such as Shelby Steele, Coleman Hughes, and Thomas Sowell from the "Identity in America" lesson plans?

4. Why is Natick High School presenting a monolithic view of race relations and systemic racism to students instead of diverse views through rigorous curriculum?

5. Why is Natick Public Schools dumbing down education for quasi diversity and inclusion?

Natick Public Schools is eroding education for quasi diversity and inclusion

Along with the federal government, many parents, organizations (including Parental Rights Natick) and schools across the country object to the principles of Critical Race Theory because they explicitly reject the ideals of meritocracy, individuality, a color-blind society, and traditional civil rights.

It's quite obvious from the "Identity in America" syllabus that there is no ideological diversity in this quasi "diversity and social justice" course. Why aren't books by black authors and scholars such as Shelby Steele, Coleman Hughes, and Thomas Sowell included in the "Identity in America" lesson plans to help Natick High School students think critically about race relations?

According to GoodReads.com,"Steele shows us how both black and white Americans have become trapped into seeing color before character, and how social policies designed to lessen racial inequities have instead increased them. The Content of Our Character is neither 'liberal' nor 'conservative,' but an honest, courageous look at America's most enduring and wrenching social dilemma."

Goodreads.com reviews say "an exciting new voice makes the case for a colorblind approach to politics and culture, warning that the so-called ‘anti-racist’ movement is driving us—ironically—toward a new kind of racism. Hughes argues for a return to the ideals that inspired the American Civil Rights movement, showing how our departure from the colorblind ideal has ushered in a new era of fear, paranoia, and resentment marked by draconian interpersonal etiquette, failed corporate diversity and inclusion efforts, and poisonous race-based policies that hurt the very people they intend to help."

Goodreads.com reviews say"Discrimination and Disparities challenges believers in such one-factor explanations of economic outcome differences as discrimination, exploitation or genetics. It is readable enough for people with no prior knowledge of economics. Yet the empirical evidence with which it backs up its analysis spans the globe and challenges beliefs across the ideological spectrum."

Let’s hold Natick Public Schools accountable and make sure your tax dollars are funding your child's quality education, not radical indoctrination.
