CRT Harms Kids: Green Bay Mom Threatens School District With Suit Over Racist Reading Support Policy

Posted • December 13, 2024: Whether you call it DEI, 'critical race theory' (CRT), or 'equity', the concept of racial preferences in certain facets of life is vile, harmful, and likely illegal. Here in Wisconsin, a boy in the Green Bay school district is one such victim of woke ideology. This writer wants to be clear: this is supplemental reading services provided by the school district itself and not an Individualized Education Plan (IEP) given to special education students. An IEP is covered by federal law, and it would be the height of stupidity to have a written policy that openly discriminates against students protected by those federal special education laws. That being said, this policy is still discriminatory and violates Title VI of the federal Civil Rights Act: A white child with dyslexia is denied essential reading intervention due to the Wisconsin State Superintendent and Green Bay Area Public School Administration prioritizing identity politics over the needs of children..
CRT hurts our kids. -- “A Wisconsin parent is mulling legal action over a situation where she alleges her son was passed over being given the extra learning attention he needed due to language on the school’s website that says it prioritizes additional help for students based on race. Attorneys for the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty argue on behalf of their client, Mrs. Colbey Decker, that a 'troubling' and 'unlawful' policy in the Green Bay Area School District 'explicitly prioritizes reading support resources based on race, thereby violating the US Constitution and Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964,' according to a letter obtained by Fox News Digital. 'Mrs. Decker’s child, who suffers from dyslexia, has received different (and less favorable) services because he is white,' the letter states. 'If he was Black, Hispanic, or Native American, Mrs. Decker’s son would have been treated more favorably and received different services.'”

This is absolutely maddening. The Left has also argued for years that literacy is white supremacy, so it makes twisted sense they'd deny a white child supplemental reading services. Allocating resources for students based on the color of their skin and not need is immoral, discriminatory, and it's unconstitutional. It is outrageous to say that a white disabled CHILD doesn’t have enough identity intersections to qualify for state and federal aid! https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ged0GibX0AETBjB?format=jpg&name=large -- This should not be tolerated. State Senator Chris Larson, this is the school system you want to be a parent's only option. Imagine how quickly this parent could solve this problem w/ vouchers for all. Instead she has to sue. This writer is familiar with Chris Larson. He's completely okay with these sort of policies. There is a window of time where these interventions are most effective. Once that window closes, it's hard to make up the losses. (…)
