American Schools and American Traitors: Hating America on Your Dime

One thing that drives me nuts is not having the time to focus on all of the threats coming at this country.
One area of concern I have been neglecting is illegal immigration. With both McCain and Obama more than willing to hold America down on the ground to be gang raped by the world, I wonder what the point is anymore.
Be that as it may, here are a few items that will serve to remind us all how undermined we are by American traitors and the enemies within. Especially academia.
Some may be aware that Islam has made inroads as a legitmate subject matter in our public schools. As frightening and as enraging as that is, they are not the only enemy within using our useless socialist public indoctrination school system to breed hatred and contempt for America. Those “harmless” Mexicans have managed to get their curriculum up and running in the schools down in Arizona.
Here is one teacher’s story, a teacher of Mexican descent who was derided as a vendido, or “sell out”, for objecting to the hate-America curriculum offered in Tucson Unified School District. Apparently every minority considers their saner members traitors if they defend America.
As a former teacher in Tucson Unified School District’s hotly debated ethnic studies department, I submit my perspective for the public’s consideration.
During the 2002-2003 school year, I taught a U.S. history course with a Mexican-American perspective. The course was part of the Raza/Chicano studies department.Within one week of the course beginning, I was told that I was a “teacher of record,” meaning that I was expected only to assign grades. The Raza studies department staff would teach the class.I was assigned to be a “teacher of record” because some members of the Raza studies staff lacked teaching certificates. It was a convenient way of circumventing the rules.I stated that I expected to do more than assign grades. I expected to be involved in teaching the class. The department was less than enthusiastic but agreed.Immediately it was clear that the class was not a U.S. history course, which the state of Arizona requires for graduation. The class was similar to a sociology course one expects to see at a university.Where history was missing from the course, it was filled by controversial and biased curriculum.The basic theme of the curriculum was that Mexican-Americans were and continue to be victims of a racist American society driven by the interests of middle and upper-class whites.In this narrative, whites are able to maintain their influence only if minorities are held down. Thus, social, political and economic events in America must be understood through this lens.This biased and sole paradigm justified teaching that our community police officers are an extension of the white power structure and that they are the strongmen used “to keep minorities in their ghettos.”It justified telling the class that there are fewer Mexican-Americans in Tucson Magnet High School’s advanced placement courses because their “white teachers” do not believe they are capable and do not want them to get ahead.It justified teaching that the Southwestern United States was taken from Mexicans because of the insatiable greed of the Yankee who acquired his values from the corrupted ethos of Western civilization.It was taught that the Southwest is “Atzlan,” the ancient homeland of the Aztecs, and still rightfully belongs to their descendants - to all people of indigenous Mexican heritage.As an educator, I refused to be complicit in a curriculum that engendered racial hostility, irresponsibly demeaned America’s civil institutions, undermined our public servants, discounted any virtues in Western civilization and taught disdain for American sovereignty.When I raised these concerns, I was told that I was a “racist,” despite being Hispanic. Acknowledging my heritage, the Raza studies staff also informed me that I was a vendido, the Spanish term for “sellout.”The culmination of my challenge to the department’s curriculum was my removal from that particular class. The Raza studies department and its district-level allies pressured the Tucson High administration to silence my concerns through reassignment to another class during that one period.The Raza studies department used the “racist” card, which is probably the most worn-out and desperate maneuver used to silence competing perspectives.

Perhaps you, like me, have wondered how the hell it has evolved that this type of material ends up in our public school system. Well, it’s been going on for years, propagasted by the likes of Soros, the Ford Foundation, Rocekfeller and others.
WeHateGringos.com have collected some articles that paint the picture. An excerpt here:
….the dozens of scholars from campuses all over the country who met here late last month did not look like revolutionaries. But behind closed doors of the meeting rooms, the conference of “Cultural Diversity Enhancement” had the tone of one of those “by any means necessary” conventions staged by SDS in the late 60s. The subject was how to turn American higher education inside out. It was sponsored by the Ford Foundation, whose strategy for a radical transformation of the university one critic has called “the academic equivalent of an ‘ethnic cleansing.’”
In an afternoon session entitled “Restructuring the University,” spokespersons summarized the thinking of the workshops that had taken place earlier that morning. Robert Steele, a Professor of Psychology at Wesleyan, noted that his group was aware that coercion would be required to change the university: “People will not be quietly assimilated to multiculturalism by truth through dialogue.” They will have to be bought off as well as brought along. Steele described the terms of the deal: “You get research assistants, you give mentoring.” In other words, using the largesse of Ford and other philanthropic institutions, advocates of multiculturalism convince the hesitant to join up by paying for research assistants. These assistants — mentors of multiculturalism — must be women or people of color. “We will have changed the university when women and people of color can see themselves running the place,” Steele concluded.

This is only one instance, and one minority. Be it blacks, illegals, gays or muslims, the road that they travel in their mission to rip America apart has been paved by the elites.
And you and me, well, we can be damned.
