Texas to Stop Teaching Capitalism?
Texas parents have a new fight on their hands: keeping ‘anti-racism’ out of their children’s personal finance classes.

Resisting national standards, federal pressure, and outside influences, Texas historically has exercised its Constitutional right to determine what Texas students will learn. The State Board of Education (SBOE) has had control over the content suitability of both instructional materials and open education resources.
With the legislature’s passage of Senate Bill 6 in 2011, control over content was stripped from the SBOE. Open to the whims of unelected and unaccountable publishers heavily influenced by national teachers’ unions, academic content was fused with Common Core, social justice, LGBT, Critical Race Theory, and wokeism.



If there is any question about how education would look under Democrats, look no further than vice presidential candidate and Minnesota Governor, Tim Walz, who made clear with his Marxist hijacking of Minnesota public education that his goal is to destroy America. 
American public education has become Marxist indoctrination mills that have produced illiterate, anti-American, atheist, and mentally destabilized activists. Now more racist propaganda is flooding schools as high school students learn about the “causes” of racial inequality and debate slavery reparations in the new “Reparations Math and Reparations History”
Although Texas, along with a number of other states, has banned the teaching of Critical Race Theory in K-12 schools, these concepts are still being taught.
The new radical “Reparations Math and Reparations History”
Across the nation war rages between parents who charge that schools are teaching their children race-based Marxist Critical Race Theory and school boards and educators who deny their accusations.
