Society's Child
As a teacher, my first obligation is to my students. But right now, my school is asking me to embrace "antiracism" training and pedagogy that I believe is deeply harmful to them and to any person who seeks to nurture the virtues of curiosity, empathy and understanding.
"Antiracist" training sounds righteous, but it is the opposite of truth in advertising. It requires teachers like myself to treat students differently on the basis of race. Furthermore, in order to maintain a united front for our students, teachers at Grace are directed to confine our doubts about this pedagogical framework to conversations with an in-house "Office of Community Engagement" for whom every significant objection leads to a foregone conclusion. Any doubting students are likewise "challenged" to reframe their views to conform to this orthodoxy.

Man who spent $1,500 to stay at Toronto quarantine hotel got COVID-19 anyway, infected whole family.
The Sheraton Hotel and Conference Centre on Dixon Road
On March 2, Syed Shah landed at Pearson International Airport on a flight from Pakistan, where he had been staying to sort out a tenant issue with a property the North York family owns.
He was swabbed for a PCR test at the terminal while his son, Syed Haider, booked his father a stay at the Sheraton Hotel and Conference Centre on Dixon Road.
Comment: The point is that all these protocols are not designed to stop the infection from spreading because such a thing is almost impossible to do. The attempts to "flatten the curve" are not only unnecessary but detrimental to the vast majority of people who could be developing natural immunity to the virus with greater exposure to it.
In fact, all these protocols and lockdowns have just worsened everything; locking people up and spreading fear and hysteria will only degrade the state of one's immune system and cause deleterious effects - much more than the virus itself.
The hotel quarantine program is just a nice name for government camps - designed to teach people to be obedient to authority. Individuals who refuse to follow this tyrannical rule are fined or even forced to be locked inside them in some cases. The sad irony here is that people have to pay for their imprisonment out of their own pocket.

Francisco Cosme, the New Jersey man who was hospitalized with COVID-19 despite being fully vaccinated.
Francisco Cosme, 52, was ecstatic when he booked an appointment for the one-dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine at the Javits Center on March 6.
After Cosme was vaccinated, he continued to wear a mask and follow social distancing guidelines but he became "very confused and began doing things that were not normal," his daughter, Michelle Torres, told The Post.
"April 1 was the very first day he started to have symptoms," Torres said. "He had a cough, fever, chills, everything."The 31-year-old drove her father to a clinic where he tested positive for COVID-19 and he was instructed to quarantine for 10 days.
Comment: The Johnson & Johnson vaccine uses double-stranded DNA. In their small-scale tests, the double-stranded DNA "vaccine" showed to be very dangerous, much more than the virus itself. With Pfizer's "vaccine" the mRNA (DNA) technology is being used for the first time, and all data so far are showing that all of them are very dangerous with so many severe side effects and death cases.

Fox News notes this puts the city on pace to top the 128 shootings witnessed in all of 2020, and it already surpasses the 52 such shootings which took place in 2019.
Illinois State Police are responding to the gun violence surge by spending $12.5 million on cameras with which to monitor the expressways.

Crowds of mourners gathered at the site of the shooting, and relatives identified the victim as Daunte Wright, an African American resident of the Minneapolis suburb of Brooklyn Center. Police did not identify the driver and said the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office will release the name once the family was notified.
Chief Tim Gannon of the Brooklyn Center Police Department said officers pulled the man over for a traffic violation and attempted to detain him when they learned of a warrant out for the man's arrest. However, the man reentered his car, at which point an officer shot him.
Comment: Daunte Wright's mother claimed that he did no wrong and was being wrongfully arrested over air freshners hanging down from his rear-view mirror (technically against the law in Minnesota). But that ignores the fact the he had an outstanding warrant out for his arrest and that he attempted to flee his arrest. Her comments ignore the likely fact that if Daunte Wright had not attempted to escape his arrest, he would still be alive.
The idea that there is a "war" going on between police and citizens continues. The people looting and rioting as a result of the shooting are accomplishing nothing. This all seems to be going according to someone's plan. Seems like we're being set up for another summer of riots and protests across the US.
UPDATE: Police say fatal shooting of Daunte Wright appears to be accidental. From Yahoo!:
Police in Brooklyn Center, Minn., say the female officer who fatally shot Daunte Wright, a 20-year-old Black man, during a traffic stop Sunday accidentally drew a handgun instead of a Taser when she killed him.But Daunte Wright's father says he 'can't accept' police claim that officer meant to use taser. From The Hill:
"There is nothing I can say to lessen the pain of Daunte Wright's family," Brooklyn Center Police Chief Tim Gannon said during a press conference Monday afternoon.
At the briefing, Gannon played bodycam footage of the incident, which shows an officer attempting to handcuff Wright outside his vehicle when Wright suddenly jumps back inside. A female officer can be heard yelling, "Taser! Taser! Taser!," before discharging her weapon as Wright drives away.
The officer can then be heard saying, "Oh, shit, I just shot him," in apparent disbelief.
The father of Daunte Wright, the 20-year-old Black man who was fatally shot on Sunday by a police officer at a traffic stop in Brooklyn Center, Minn., says he "can't accept" authorities claiming that the officer meant to use a Taser instead of firing her gun.Meanwhile, as well as the National Guard being brought in, Minnesota has had curfew imposed in response to the riots.
"I cannot accept that," Aubrey Wright told ABC's Robin Roberts on "Good Morning America." "I lost my son. He's never coming back. I can't accept that a mistake — that doesn't even sound right. This officer has been on the force for 26-plus years. I can't accept that."
Daunte Wright's mother, Katie Wright, told "Good Morning America" that she would like to see "justice served" and the officer "held accountable for everything that she's taken from us."

CNN's live coverage of nighttime clashes between BLM protesters and police in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota took an unusual turn when an angry man confronted the reporter about the media supposedly making things worse.The protest has spread to other cities as a vigil for Daunte Wright in Portland (of course) turned into riot with clashes outside police station. From RT:
The on-air exchange between CNN's Sara Sidner and the man, who refused to identify himself, happened on Monday evening. Sidner was reporting from the scene of intense clashes involving people protesting the death of 20-year-old black man Daunte Wright, who was killed by a police officer on Sunday.
A riot was declared in Portland, Oregon on Monday night after protesters threw rocks and other objects at police officers. They demanded justice for Daunte Wright, a black man who was fatally shot by police over the weekend.Cue the Twitter war! From RT:
After attending a vigil for Daunte Wright, who died in a botched arrest attempt in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, protesters staged a march, chanting, "Every city, every town - burn the precincts to the ground!"
The crowd headed towards the Penumbra Kelly building, where the city's police precinct and a local sheriff's office are located. According to local TV channel KWG, there were around 250 protesters.
Police said people were throwing bottles, rocks, and fireworks at the officers, as well as breaking windows and starting fires as they attempted to break into the building.
Amid a second night of rioting and clashes between police and protesters in Minnesota, Twitter found its own battleground - reacting in a morally superior and politically convenient way to the ransacking of a Dollar Tree store.Also on Twitter, some users are asking why the name of the police officer who shot Daunte Wright is released, but not Capitol riot killer responsible for the death of Ashli Babbit. From RT:
...
One of the targets was a local branch of Dollar Tree, a discount retailer. The chain sells food and household items as cheaply as possible, serving as a major supplier for poorest communities. So it's no wonder that the outlet's demise was soon picked up by conservative commentators as the latest example of how BLM protesters don't really care about black communities and only want looting and chaos.
Their ideological opponents appeared en masse to explain why a bit of property damage was OK when done for the right cause. Dollar Tree is a rich corporation exploiting black people, they suggested, so you can't possibly value some store more than the life of Daunte Wright, and, most of all, what about the Capitol Hill riot? Or so the arguments went.
Amidst the protests following the shooting of Daunte Wright at the hands of police, conservatives got Ashli Babbitt's name trending again, asking why the officer who shot her during the Capitol Riot was never publicly identified.
The officer who shot and killed 20-year-old Daunte Wright on Sunday has been revealed as Kim Potter, whom Brooklyn Center Police Chief Tim Gannon said accidentally discharged her weapon during a traffic stop, resulting in Wright's death.
On Tuesday, as Potter's name came to be known, some conservatives pushed another name to trend on social media: Ashli Babbitt, who was infamously killed on camera during the US Capitol riot by an officer whose name was never released. Critics quickly theorized as to why one name was released so quickly while another has been kept hidden since January 6.
"Ashli Babbitt was white and conservative and therefore her life had no value, in the eyes of BLM and the media," Daily Wire's Matt Walsh wrote in response to a question about Potter's name being released.
"Why do they only protect some officers?" Gateway Pundit's Cassandra Fairbanks originally asked, kicking off the comparisons.

Hank Azaria apologized to "every single Indian person" for voicing Apu on "The Simpsons," during an interview with Dax Shepard for his podcast "Armchair Expert" on Monday.
In an interview with Dax Shepard on his podcast "Armchair Expert," the 56-year-old actor revealed that he's on a major guilt trip over his longtime role as Kwik-E-Mart shopkeeper Apu Nahasapeemapetilon on "The Simpsons."
Azaria, who no longer voices the controversial character, says he's taking some unconventional steps to find out why his portrayal was offensive toward the Indian community.
Comment: It's hard to see what all the fuss is about. Apu is a beloved character on the Simpsons who isn't the butt of the jokes any more than any other character. It seems one can't have any depiction of a race other than white represented in a show without it being called problematic (and yet, at the same time, on all white cast is called out for a lack of diversity).

After another round of property destruction as Black Lives Matter protested over a police officer killing Daunte Wright ‒ and another round of trillion-dollar political giveaways by the Biden administration ‒ many are wondering aloud about the real looters in the US.
Many privileged Americans believed they were undergoing a racial awakening thanks to violence from both sides during last summer's explosion of protests and riots in hundreds of cities across the nation. Some merely feared Covid-19, others the warlike atmosphere of their particular city, but most were ultimately forced to take shelter inside with a copy of the odious self-hating New York Times best-seller "White Fragility" or another self-flagellating race-consciousness tome.
The Detroit Police Department arrested Williams in 2019 after examining security footage from a shoplifting incident. A detective used facial recognition technology on a grainy image from the video, and the system flagged Williams as a potential match based on a driver's license photo. But as the lawsuit notes, facial recognition is frequently inaccurate, particularly with Black subjects and a low-quality picture. The department then produced a photo lineup that included Williams' picture, showed it to a security guard who hadn't actually witnessed the shoplifting incident, and obtained a warrant when that guard picked him from the lineup.

Police at a shooting at Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville, Tennessee, April 12, 2021.
Police found the student in a bathroom at Austin-East Magnet High School in Knoxville, a city about 180 miles (290 kilometers) east of Nashville, Tennessee Bureau of Investigation Director David B. Rausch said at a news conference. They ordered the student to come out, but he wouldn't comply, and that's when he reportedly opened fire, Rausch said. Police fired back.
The student died at the school, and the officer was taken into surgery after being shot at least once in the upper leg, authorities said. The officer was expected to recover, and no one else was hurt. It wasn't yet clear why the student brought a gun to school or why he fired at officers.
I've been reading your blog for a couple years now. I sometimes disagree with your takes, but I steadfastly agree about the damage Critical Race Theory (CRT) is doing to our nation. I'm a high school teacher in [state] and currently taking the last class required for my master's degree in education through [university]. The class covers some of the science behind how people (and specifically children) learn.
The latest modules, however, deal with CRT and its tenets, such as the permanence of racism, the failure of liberalism, the myth of colorblindness, and others. It has been difficult to complete the assignments because I disagree with nearly all of them. I find myself staring at the screen in gridlock because the work presupposes all of these beliefs. How can I answer from a perspective I feel is inherently wrong? As an example, some of my assignments are attached below.
To make the situation more interesting, the class is taught by a white female professor and the students are nearly all white women. One student may be Indian, but it's hard to tell since we've only met virtually. As a person of color, I have more experience living as a minority in this society than all of them, yet I'm supposed to pretend I believe these insane ideas.I'm going to share the documents below. But first, I wrote back to this reader to ask why conservatives and traditional Christians should get involved in a profession in which everything is stacked against them?
My [spouse] knows and understands my frustration. I just have to "suck it up" and finish this class so I can get my degree. I will never accept CRT because its tenets are antithetical to the Gospel. However, I wanted to write to you so you and others can see what happens in teacher education right now in our country. If conservatives ever want to right this ship, they need to start getting involved in public education, and, preferably, become teachers themselves.
