CO Protest Against Changing Hate America Public School Curriculum

[From article]
Most concerning is the anti-historical emphasis on social justice, globalism, environmentalism, race, class, and gender victimhood that undermines Western ideals, the Constitution, capitalism, and American culture.
Up to this point, definitive proof the new “standards” were deleterious was anecdotal. But facts now show not only intent, but a vision and mission that bring schools face to face with forces bent on instilling a false shame Americas past for the purpose of establishing a global collective.

For four years beginning in1997, a conference on American History was held at New York University’s center in Florence Italy called the Villa LaPietra. It was organized by Dr. Thomas Bender of NYU. Primary funding came from the liberal Rockefeller, Ford, and Mellon Foundations. At these meetings, 78 historians, half who were not Americans, gathered to create a new American History. Their vision can be read in the aptly named LaPietra Report.

The rhetoric, euphemisms, and denial from ivory tower revisionists can no longer hide the truth. A Progressive movement to change American History and undermine the nation is self-evident.

Hell-bent on Rewriting America's past
By Dean Kalahar

A problem is that across the Muslim dominated countries from Morocco to Afghanistan in state schools, students learn to hate America, Israel, Americans and Jews. In American public schools and colleges students learn to hate America, Israel, Americans and Jews. At the same time when people get ebola they travel to the US hoping for care and treatment which they get. Oppressed people look to America to help them and when they get the chance they come to America to live. Thousands stream across the southern border to come to the US for food, housing and medical care provided by US taxpayers. If they hate America so much, why do they come here? What is wrong with this picture?

Another parent, Robert Gleason, after pointing at the Colorado flag in the front of the room, told the board he didn't want the school district to follow in the path of Texas, where the state school board has told teachers to stick to state history standards, not the new course framework that some view as anti-American.
One man donated a copy of George Orwell's "1984" to the board. One of the outnumbered supporters of the conservative members held up a copy of the state constitution, pointing out that it gives local school boards the power to make decisions about curriculum.
