Private schools implementing leftist racial curriculum with training from Black Panther: report
2022-03-18
[Breitbart] "Kindergartners are natural social justice warriors," one trainer told teachers.

Private schools across the country are implementing radical leftist curricula as the nation's leading private school accreditation association has been training teachers through lectures such as "Decolonizing the Minds of Second Graders" and "The White People Way," as shown on footage obtained by Breitbart News.

More than 1,600 private schools nationwide receive accreditation through the National Association of Independent Schools (NAIS), which also provides training conferences for teachers at member schools.

"The principal professional development conference hosted by NAIS for teachers, The People of Color Conference, was started by 'Educational Diversity/Equity Consultant' and former NAIS Director of Diversity Randolph Carter, who is a self-described Black Panther," Breitbart reported.

Carter is the founder of East Ed, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, according to his LinkedIn. The East Ed's now-defunct website describes him as a "member of the Black Panther Party."

Carter's biography on the East Ed website states that "while at the National Association of Independent Schools, he directed their equity programming and founded two of their signature projects: People of Color Conference and Student Diversity Leadership Conference."

While Carter is no longer at NAIS, he still participates in the People of Color Conference.

In December 2021, a conference session to train NAIS teachers focused on social justice in kindergarten.

"Kindergartners are natural social justice warriors," trainer Traci Allen told teachers, as shown on video obtained by Breitbart.

"And I think if we just build upon the mindset of the kindergartner, that is fantastic, you can get them to do fabulous things in the social justice realm," she said.

In "Decolonizing the Minds of Second Graders," another lecture at the December People of Color Conference, one trainer discusses how she wore a gas mask, goggles and a bulletproof vest as she protested George Floyd's death in Portland.

"It's an ongoing system of power that perpetuates the genocide and repression of indigenous peoples and cultures," the lecturer said in the video from Breitbart. "And so, we are settler colonialists, right? We perpetuate that unless we are indigenous to the land that we are on."

Another session at that conference featured a slide with the title "Burn Sh** down" as a lecturer who identifies as a vice principal tells teachers to "[recognize] when systems are broken and [imagine] something new."

In another talk, titled "The White People Way," a lecturer spoke about critical race theory (CRT) and "white tears."

"In order to recognize that you are experiencing the 'White People Way' pitfall, you can look for signs of white supremacy culture; so seeing things like a focus on perfectionism, a focus on power hoarding, not being willing to share, and a focus on product," she told teachers in the video obtained by Breitbart. "Additionally, you may hear comments about, 'Oh, we need to meet people where they are,' rather than pushing the work further. You may see literal white tears and that can be a tool to disrupt the work. You may also see policing of language and tone, or arguments about semantics — and we are seeing this I think, really strongly nationally with the backlash around CRT, we've seen it with white privilege and with a variety of other terms — arguing about those terms prevents us from moving forward on the work."

Private schools accredited by NAIS are now implementing radical curricula.

"Fourth Grade Black Panther Studies" is now being taught in St. Paul's Episcopal School in Oakland, Calif., according to the school's website.

Breitbart obtained a copy of an "Anti-Discrimination Pledge" from Westminster Schools in Atlanta, Ga.

"On my honor I commit to confronting racism and discrimination by working with my peers and teachers to help create a safe, supportive and respectful environment for everyone," the pledge states, adding: "Along with my community, I will participate in personal education that equips me with the skills to be anti-racist and that empowers this community to be inclusive to all of its members."

Breitbart News obtained the material from "Undercover Mother," which describes itself as a "Mom Collective with children in independent school."

"We circle our young to protect them from the abuse being inflicted by schools and the cartels of the regional and National Association of Independent Schools," the group states.
