Okun racializes quality and ability
OkunSuffering from obvious feelings of inadequacy and “resentment,” tried In the late 1990s, she compiled a list of “features of white supremacist culture” that she recognized as “pervasive in our culture and institutions.”
Leftists believe that a variety of valid beliefs, behaviors, and ways of thinking, including objectivity, a sense of right and wrong, and individuality, are “used as norms or standards without being actively named or chosen by a group. Therefore, it was judged to be harmful. They are harmful because they promote ideas of white supremacy. ”
For example, a sense of crisis is racist because it “is inclusive, encourages democratic and/or thoughtful decision-making, thinks long-term, and considers consequences.” This is because it becomes difficult to spend time. Worse, a sense of urgency “often sacrifices potential allies in the pursuit of quick or tangible results.”
Paternalism, which Okun meant by assertive leadership, is a hallmark of white supremacy. Because “those in power think they can make decisions for and for those without power.”
An “either/or mindset” is racist because it is “closely related to perfectionism,” “results in trying to simplify complex things,” and “creates conflict and heightens a sense of tension.” .
Okun also explains that individualism promotes “an individual’s desire for recognition and trust,” and that “organizations value people who can accomplish things on their own without the need for supervision or guidance.” “I believe that individualism is a hallmark of white supremacy because it creates a lack of responsibility.” ”
Objectivity is another characteristic of white supremacists. Because objectivity requires people to think in a logical way and corresponds to the “belief that emotions are inherently destructive and irrational and should play no role in decision-making or group processes.” This is because it is said that
Okun
Note In her blog, she says, “The culture of white supremacy is inextricably linked to all other oppressions, including capitalism, sexism, class and gender oppression, ableism, ageism, and Christian supremacy.” , all of which are interrelated, intersecting, and stirring in a toxic brew.”[.] …This beer is a cancer, a disease, an addiction, a disorder that infects everything, whether we are aware of it or not. ”
madness continues to spread
Seattle Public Schools has made no secret of its identitarian leanings, it notes in its 2019-2024 report.
strategic planning It said it was “focused on ensuring racial equity in our education system and will do so unapologetically.”[ing] The needs and labor of students of color far from educational justice.[ing] It is about undoing the legacy of racism in our education system. ”
To achieve this objective, SPS appears to focus on supporting one group of students.
“By focusing on students of color, especially African American males, who are furthest from educational justice, we will make the most progress toward our collective vision,” the strategic plan states. ing. “We believe that an intentional focus on African American men will ultimately benefit all students.”
Embracing black male students clearly involves separating them from desirable traits and convincing them that such traits are racist.
The concerned father told Mr. Lantz that students in his world literature and composition class were given a written definition of the “nine characteristics of white supremacy” as part of “Black Lives Matter School Week.” It is said that a printed copy was given to him.
Before It was held from late January to early February.
British students believed that one of the characteristics of white supremacy that Okun proposed was the “worship of the written word,” which included “respecting only the written word, and even narrower standards for writing the written word.” They seem to have been taught that this includes “respecting only the people of the world, and being full of misinformation and lies.” A wide range of ways we communicate with each other are erased. ”
Up-to-date text definitions of Okun’s characteristics of white supremacy.
circulated According to the University of Michigan, the fetishization of the written word is “the inability or denial of the ability to recognize the information shared through stories, embodied knowledge, intuition, and the wide range of ways we have, individually and collectively. This is particularly problematic because it corresponds to Learn and know. ”
The other eight characteristics listed in the handout are all: I am quoting from an Okun article from several decades ago. Individualism. The right to comfort. perfectionism. denial and defense. paternalism. either/or binary; and fear.
The list is “incoherent and does not stand up to any rational analysis,” the father added. “How can a 15-year-old argue in class when ‘denial and defense’ are themselves hallmarks of white supremacy? This is pure educational malpractice.”
KTTH said SPS declined to comment.
The father, who chose to remain anonymous for fear of retaliation, told Lantz: “I feel bad for the students who actually internalize this stuff, because it sets them up for failure.” . “My problem with this curriculum is that this is supposed to be a writing and literature class, but lessons like this do nothing to help kids become better writers.”
“I’m sure
lincoln Administration will likely point to high ELA proficiency scores, but they will also point to high rates of HCC. [highly capable] “The kids (40% of the student population) are a big factor,” the concerned father added, adding, “There are a lot of smart, hardworking kids (white supremacists) who support these extravagant beliefs. Easy, but the system as a whole only supports 63% of children’ fluent English. Is this really an effective use of class time? ”
