California: Santa Barbara Parents Ask Courts to Roll Back ‘Implicit Bias’ Curricula

Epoch Times:

Concerned parents in Santa Barbara, California, are moving forward with a lawsuit in state court against a nonprofit and the local school board over taxpayer-funded “implicit bias” instruction, after a legal hiccup forced their watchdog group to change judicial forums.

According to the parents and other critics, the “implicit bias” training program operating in Santa Barbara, which bears a resemblance to programs active in school districts and colleges across the nation, is pseudoscientific and falsely portrays the United States as a cruel, oppressive, and racist country.

Parents accuse those promoting the program of teaching that white people in the United States routinely oppress non-whites, men oppress women, Christians oppress non-Christians, heterosexuals oppress gays, and the wealthy oppress the poor. The left-wing nonprofit counters that its teachings are legitimate, not racist, and are aimed at closing what it characterizes as an achievement gap between Latino and white students.

Fair Education Santa Barbara (FESB) is the tax-exempt nonprofit organization that is suing the Santa Barbara Unified School District (SBUSD), Cary Matsuoka in his capacity as SBUSD superintendent, and the nonprofit Just Communities Central Coast in the County of Santa Barbara division of the Superior Court of the State of California.

Sheridan Rosenberg, who co-chairs Fair Education Santa Barbara, said taxpayer dollars are being used for “ideological brainwashing.”

“These radicals are practicing activism and not providing a proper education for our children,” she told The Epoch Times. MORE

  1. The left-wing nonprofit counters that its teachings are legitimate, not racist, and are aimed at closing what it characterizes as an achievement gap between Latino and white students.

    Apparently the gap will be narrowed by shaming whites into performing more poorly because it won’t do a damn thing to elevate the performance of latinos.

  2. The people who need this program most are the ones trying to cram it down everyone else’s throat. They think everyone else is racist, when in reality, it’s just them.

    Just check in with Bette Midler and view the transference first hand.

  3. “Implicit Bias” Training… otherwise known as “We’re gonna treat you like an asshole just because you’re white, and that, somehow, makes us ‘anti-racists’.” brainwashing.
