California's Ethnic Studies Showdown In this thought-provoking video, we delve into the heated battles surrounding California's Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum (ESMC). From its inception rooted in the civil rights movements of the 1960s to the current clash of ideologies, we explore how marginalized group dynamics is taught through a critical race theory lens. And more.
Join us as we navigate the contentious debates, from accusations of bias to the fight for inclusive teaching materials that reflect the complexities of history and identity. Witness firsthand how districts are carving their own paths amid fierce opposition and passionate support. This is more than an educational issue; it’s a reflection on how schools are cultivating our future leaders. Don’t forget to bookmark, comment, and share this video!

Side note: The video production software is VERY EXPENSIVE. Help me to at least break even or else I’ll need to discontinue the service. In addition, please provide me feedback on what subject matters you would like covered, not only in print but on video. This video was a “two day project,” using a very expensive video creator, any support is welcome. A one time donation to my buymeacoffee is much appreciated. The video production software is VERY EXPENSIVE.
