California Approves Prayer in School … So Long as it is AntiChristian by David Haggith for The Great Recession
The state’s new ‘Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum’ extends the left’s cultural dominance of California’s public education system, and seeks to destroy the ‘Christianity, capitalism and racism’ white settlers brought to America.
The Department of Education in California – where else? – has approved a 900-page “Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum” designed to “decolonize” America. The program aims to right the supposed wrongs of the imperial Christianity that swept the Americas clean of their indigenous religions. The curriculum’s core promise is that it will help root out Christianity, and the capitalism and racism that apparently came with it.
To empower children as forces for ending such white colonialist hangovers, pupils are being instructed to pray in chants each day to Aztec gods that formerly sacrificed (and sometimes ate parts of) children and their parents. The curriculum instructs the pupils to invoke these gods to empower themselves as “social warriors”.

With such empowerment, the new creed states, children will be better enabled to “challenge racist, bigoted, discriminatory, imperialist/colonial beliefs”. After all, that is what children should be burdened with doing – righting the wrongs created by adults who lived centuries before them. The theory goes that the longer you can make children enraged about social injustices they never personally bore, the better adjusted and happier they will be in their world as social warriors.
One special quality of the new curriculum is that it managed to anger almost everyone. During its development, numerous racial identities raged over how they were being expunged from the history of oppression.
Even those with Middle East roots got into a brawl about being left off the list of those who are victims of white persecution. Jews and Palestinians accused each other of seeking to wipe the other off the face of the new curriculum, during the rancorous debates that preceded its recent unanimous approval.
One report said: “Some [who] identified themselves as Jewish and the descendants of Holocaust survivors said the plan ‘erased the unique stories of Jews in the Middle East.’ Others criticized the curriculum as anti-Arab, saying it white-washed content about Arab Americans and erased earlier content about Palestinians.”
Even the educators behind the move “acknowledged that a curriculum on racial and ethnic issues was bound to be divisive…. ‘This criticism will continue. I can guarantee you that,’ said California Secretary of State Shirley Weber.”
Feeding the rage of the age
So now the Golden State has a richly divisive curriculum that gets everyone upset at everyone. Because the world is better and more free of racial hatred when all kids discover what they are supposed to be enraged about. Otherwise, they might just go outside and play with each other if simply taught to be nice to all. How, then, would they learn what racism is?
