Quote:
[Tim Walz appointed] left-wing extremist Brian Lozenski to head up a restructuring of K-12 education in Minnesota. This is under the guise of “Ethnic Studies,” a purported academic discipline that now, as a matter of law, is to be inserted into every class, in every grade starting in kindergarten, in every public school in Minnesota. Lozenski is the guru of Ethnic Studies, having headed up that effort in California, and now, by virtue of Walz’s appointment, in Minnesota.
What, according to Lozenski, is Ethnic Studies all about? I quoted Lozenski here. In Lozenski’s telling, “Ethnic Studies” means hating Israel and the United States:
“Given the devastating impact of Israeli colonialism on the lives of people across the Arab region, Palestine is a central issue for Arab students; studying Israeli settler colonialism in comparison to US settler colonialism is illuminating for all students, and at the heart of the discipline of Ethnic Studies.”
The Great Satan and the Little Satan, the only two “settler colonialist” nations: that is what the Iranian mullahs preached, and what Tim Walz evidently believes. Or at least what he wants kindergarteners in Minnesota to believe.
But Lozenski, Tim Walz’s most important education appointee, has been even more explicit than that. He has called for the overthrow of the government of the United States. This is a quote from the man whom Tim Walz chose to represent his views on public education:
“The first tenet of critical race theory is that the United States as constructed is irreversibly racist. So if the nation-state as constructed is irreversibly racist, then it must be done with, it must be overthrown, right. And so we can’t be like, “Oh no, critical race theory is just about telling our stories and divers[ity].” It’s not about that. It’s about overthrow. It’s insurgent. And we, we need to be, I think, more honest with that. … You can’t be a critical race theorist and be pro-U.S. Okay, it is an anti-state theory that says, The United States needs to be deconstructed, period.”
That is Tim Walz’s vision for public education: teach our children, starting in kindergarten, that the government of the United States needs to be overthrown, because the United States is irredeemably evil.
The Democrats’ eleventh-hour selection of the far-left Tim Walz as Kamala Harris’s running mate may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Walz, through his actions and through his appointments, says the quiet part out loud. He hates America and wants to “overthrow” and “deconstruct” our country and our government because we are “irreversibly racist.”
This is why Elon Musk is right when he says America’s future is on the line in this election. It is the first time that an explicitly anti-American ticket has tried to take over the Oval Office. We can’t let that happen.
