A parental rights group on Wednesday filed a civil rights complaint against a South Carolina school district over teacher groups that “appear to exclude individuals based on their race.”
Parents Defending Education filed a complaint with the Office of Civil Rights for the Department of Education over multiple racially-focused “affinity groups” hosted by the Charleston County School District. The complaint, first shared with The Daily Wire, says that the groups violate federal civil rights laws by limiting participation by race.
The groups in question are the “Hispanic Latino Affinity Group” and the “Black Educator Affinity Group.”
“Charleston County School District has affinity group programming that is not open to all. The District allows only some teachers to participate in affinity group programming and participation is based on their race,” the complaint reads. “Descriptions of individual affinity groups in the District appear to exclude individuals based on their race.”
According to the district’s website, the Black Educator Affinity Group is “a space for black educators to connect to one another, support one another, and celebrate one another in a safe space.”
The mission of the Hispanic Latino Affinity Group is to promote “professional development and career advancement opportunities” for Hispanic and Latino employees in the district and to “create a Hispanic-Latino Affinity committee to support recruitment, retention, and innovation among CCSD Hispanic-Latino employees.”
“Both affinity groups encourage hiring employees based on race and offer professional development opportunities exclusively for black and Hispanic-Latino employees,” the complaint says. “Furthermore, while other Districts ensures affinity group bodies are accessible to all teachers, Charleston County School District evades responsibility for the practices of its affinity groups, stating that ‘each affinity group establishes its own mission and goal.’”
The complaint argues that the affinity groups could run afoul of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, which prohibits federal funding from going toward entities practicing racial discrimination, and the Equal Protection clause of the 14th Amendment.
Parents Defending Education President Nicole Neily told The Daily Wire that it would continue to challenge districts like Charleston that promote racially-focused programs and opportunities.
“It’s grotesque that districts continue to separate teachers, students, and community members on the basis of skin color, and PDE will continue to file complaints about these types of racially segregated programs until such practices end,” she said. “Where there’s smoke there’s fire — and sadly, when a school spends finite time and resources organizing events like this, we often see other discriminatory practices on the books as well.”
President Donald Trump signed an executive order in January directing all federal funding to be cut off for school districts that promote racial and gender ideology in an effort to go after the promotion of diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives at schools across the country.
Yeah, it’s vital that ALL students are pulled down to the lowest level. How else can we raise a nation full of dumbasses?
Who would want anything to do with these groups? European peoples should simply form their own groups.
The Latin Americans and the Black Americans should just return to their original countries, so they do not have to interact with whites. Kudos to American President to cut off federal funding to these offense groups. let them funds themselves.
Teachers in some of those “affinity groups” have no affinity for mathematics, English grammar, and other subjects, so they don’t teach them, though they are forced to go through the motions. Many of them can’t even spell the word, or define it, though they appreciate that its three syllables lend them the aura of being edumacated.
“Pleased to meet you, Miss Fenbaum; I sure do be amplificated ‘pon making yo acquaintehood!”
Those syllables, though! What can be said of people who always, every single time, utilize a three-syllable word, when use of a one-syllable word would have done the trick “sufficiently?”
Bwmers were raised for 80 years to be disallowed from forming any all white associations. This mindset is taking hold of the fourth generation- our great great grandchildren.
This is the unwritten point of the above article: affinity of whites among whites is against ‘the law’.
they try to inject racist tribal mafia spirit
into the pupils like the jews always had
since centuries .
the whites should be teached by KKK !
