3rd-graders told to rank themselves on 'power and privilege' Sunday, January 17, 2021 | Michael F. Haverluck (OneNewsNow.com) Spanish A new report is revealing parents’ outrage that a California elementary school is “basically teaching racism” to their third graders through “critical race theory” by instructing them to rank themselves according to their “power and privilege.” The lesson was reportedly given by a third-grade teacher at R.I. Meyerholz Elementary School in Cupertino, California, during a math lesson. “First, the teacher told the eight- and nine-year-old students that they live in a 'dominant culture' of 'white, middle class, cisgender, educated, able-bodied, Christian[s]' who 'created and maintained' this culture in order 'to hold power and stay in power," City Journal’s Christopher F. Rufo recently tweeted.
