Omaha Schools Mandate Diversity Ideology in a Big Way

Your tax dollars at work; stimulus sub-category. . .

The Omaha school system ordered up a pile of diversity training books to give to every staff member, from teachers to custodians, at a cost of $130K. (Diversity agitprop doesn’t come cheap.)

The school board apparently believes that teachers must be indoctrinated with diversity ideology (aka cultural proficiency), [...]

Senator Cornyn Deflates DREAM Disinformation

On Tuesday, the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, chaired by Dick Durbin, held a hearing to promote the DREAM Act. See written witness statements here. Senator Durbin cooed that perhaps an illegal alien would become President someday, which tells you where he is coming from.

Senator John Cornyn (R-TX, career immigration voting grade B) did a [...]

Supremes Let Illegal Alien Tuition Subsidies Stand

What a disappointment that the Supremes let stand the lower court ruling allowing taxpayer-subsidized in-state tuition for illegal aliens. The Court appear to have no respect for taxpayers, sovereignty or basic fairness.

California in particular suffers from continuing wealth extraction caused by invasive foreigners who delight in bleeding us dry — in billions of tax dollars spent [...]

Los Angeles Catholic Diocese Promotes Bilingualism, Not Assimilation

In former Governor Richard Lamm’s ironic opinion piece, “I have a plan to destroy America”, item #1 on his list of sabotage actions is to make the country bilingual:

We must first make America a bilingual-bicultural country. History shows, in my opinion, that no nation can survive the tension, conflict and antagonism of two competing languages [...]

Illegals Benefit from Affirmative Action

Citizen students, whose parents pay taxes to support the state university system, lose out when affirmative action guidelines are used to give advantage to illegal aliens.

Not only that, but the poorly prepared aliens frequently drop out, as noted in the video, according to the former Associate Dean of the University of Maryland. Illegals are seen [...]

California’s Two-Tier Demographic Disaster

The latest news from California shows the stupidity of welcoming millions of unskilled immigrants and illegal aliens who have no desire to assimilate to American values of education and improvement. They may temporarily provide cheap labor for business, but the long-term harm is permanent.

A huge proportion of the state’s population is mired in stubborn poverty, [...]

American Students Are Slighted

In the new post-American USA, citizens often get second-class treatment. Young people who are scrambling to make a place for themselves are particularly at risk under the updated rules which actually favor foreigners, even illegal ones, over US citizens.

We saw that the DREAM Act was defeated by a whisker in Congress during the Democrat-controlled lame-duck [...]

Your Tax Dollars at Work: Latino Obesity Division

Say, isn’t the federal government $14 trillion in the hole? An easy target for financial pruning would be this boondoggle: a multi-million-dollar educational program to cut obesity among a certain tribal group.

Why does this bunch need a big infusion of ethno-specific funding? Don’t kids still learn about the basic food pyramid in grade school?

Cal State [...]

Seattle School Steers Students to Spring Spheres

Kids these days may have fancy digital gizmos, but they miss out on a lot of great experiences from traditional America, because the loony liberal educational establishment wants to stamp out customs with any Christian content. The goal is to make America safe for diversity, where no one believes in anything.

Christmas has been a big [...]

White House Advisor Reviews Hispanic Education Challenges

An interview with a hispanic education advisor in the White House indicates an interesting combination of honesty and a sense of entitlement. Juan Sepulveda admits that hispanic students are at rock bottom of academic achievement (unlike other immigrant groups such as Asians who adapt readily to America’s education opportunities).

In fact, the hispanic education environment is [...]

Group Identity Is Strong among Primates

Everybody likes their own tribe the best, a fact of psychology that is ignored by the insistent multiculturalism ideology so beloved by liberal elites. We humans just feel more comfortable among those who share our language and culture.

Science has shown that the tribal nature of our species is deep seated.

New research indicates that a hard-wired [...]

Obama on Univision: We Want Illegals to Succeed

On Monday, post-American President Obama appeared on the Spanish network Univision to chat and take questions from non-reporters. (I can’t remember the last time he had a town hall with Americans in English.)

Unsurprisingly, the subjects were illegal immigration and amnesty. In answer to a question about deporting illegal alien students, Obama replied, “We want them [...]
