I posted this in the group a little while ago:
The people behind Common Core A-F Grading, Vouchers, Merit Pay and all of the other non-democratic Education Reforms are making the most damage on the state level of government. The hubris of these reformers is fueled by the GOP and DFER believers that there are certain classes and races of the population that do not deserve the same education as the elite as evidenced in the recent emails from Mitch Daniels, former Indiana Governor and current president of Purdue who spoke of his admiration of Charles Murray an author of the Bell Curve, a hideously racist book about race and intellectual ability. These policy makers and politicians know that they cannot fund equal education for all if they continue to keep taxes low for corporations and the 1%, so they promote privatization. Read this email timeline from these creeps that destroyed education in Indiana. You may not recognize the names, but they are Tony Bennett's staffers, Daniel's staff and state legislators. And I can guarantee this same type of conversation has taken place in every GOP controlled state. www.fox28.com/story/23309037/an-email-timeline-of-indianas-education-reforms
The article link details how Indiana GOP staffers and legislators planned the dismantling of public education in the state. These are repulsive, racist people that believe they are better than anyone that has dark skin. They don't think they are worthy of tax dollars that it takes to education them and what is worse they have the connections to get it done.
I grew up and live in Central Indiana and have been around racists all my life. I can pick one out in a second and recognize their BS a mile away. The reformers in the article are disgusting and even dangerous. If we want to save our public education, we need to act now to purge our government of these idiots.
