Current Reaction: SO GLAD my kids are well past their public school education. The nutso proposals we're seeing in NYC, Virginia, and California (and how many other states?) to cut back accelerated learning for advanced students are so disturbing. Not to even mention the coming ethnic studies movement (i.e. know your identity group grievances or shameful history). Makes you want to burn down every university school of education, where these ideas seem universal. I thought my son's plan to homeschool his two kids was questionable, but now it's totally sensible.

"Verwoerd’s revenge" I don't know how I missed that when it was first posted. Very good. The woke seem to be very prone to stepping on rakes. Affinity groups is just one example. Another one is the trial of Derek Chauvin. If your people had been tormented with lynchings, you might want to be fastidious about due process in a way that Maxine Waters just couldn't understand.
