Epic: Black Dad UNLOADS On Woke School Board Over CRT, Gets Standing Ovation From Room [VIDEO]

Epic: Black Dad UNLOADS On Woke School Board Over CRT, Gets Standing Ovation From Room [VIDEO]


As the insane push for diversity, equity, and inclusion ramps up in the public sphere, there is also a growing interest in standing up for truth and reality. One such moment came during amazingly powerful school board speech by a father of three children.

Blasting the school board specifically and the entire practice of CRT in general, this father delivered one of the best rebuttals of toxic race grifting I have ever seen. As a parent, I will steal his line that children – his, mine, anyone’s – are only oppressed by three things: Their ignorance, their laziness, and their poor choices. Boom

Take a look below:

 

I’d like to begin my comments tonight by reading a quote, which in essence is the genesis of all of this Black Lives Matter, social justice CRT conversations we’re having in our country today, quote, I am not going to stand up to show pride in a flag for a country that oppresses black people and people of color, close quote, Colin Kaepernick, August 2016. 

I am the direct descendant of the North American slave trade. Both of my parents are black, all four of my grandparents are black, all eight of my great great grandparents all 16 of my great greats. On my mother’s side, my ancestors were enslaved in Alabama. On my father’s side, we were enslaved in Texas. 

I am not oppressed. I’m not oppressed, and I’m not a victim. I’m neither a press nor a victim. I travel all across this country of ours. And I check into hotels and I fly commercially. And I walk into retail establishments, and I order food and restaurants. I go wherever I want, whenever I want. I am treated with kindness, dignity, and respect, literally from coast to coast. I have three children. They are not oppressed either.

Although they are victims, I’ve taught my children, they’re victims of three things, their own ignorance, their own laziness and their own poor decision making. That is all my children. We are not victims of America, we are not victims of some unseen 190 year old force that kind of floats around in the ether. 

Putting critical race theory into our classrooms is taking our nation in the wrong direction. racism in America would by and large, be dead today, if it were not for certain people and institutions keeping it on life support. And sadly, sadly, very sadly, one of those institutions is the American education system. 

I can think of nothing more damaging to a society than to tell a baby born today that she has grievances against another baby born today, simply because of what their ancestors may have done two centuries ago. There is simply no point in doing that to our children. And putting critical race theory into our classrooms, in part does that putting critical race theory into our classrooms is not combating racism. 

It’s fanning the flames of what little embers are left. I encourage you to support this resolution. Let racism die the death it deserves.
