Five months after the high-stakes local election in Southlake, the city is gearing up for yet another contentious vote. One of the school board members who supported the diversity plan, retired Air Force Col. Dave Almand, is stepping down, and the battle over diversity programs is at the center of the fight to replace him. But he’s far from the only leader to leave a role in public schools this year following attacks from parents opposed to what they see as the quiet creep critical race theory. For this special bonus episode, we sit down with a panel of four educators from across the country who’ve come under fire, including James Whitfield, the first Black principal at a high school a town over from Southlake, whose school board has begun a formal process that could lead to his termination. The educators discuss how the anti-CRT movement is driving them out of their careers—and away from their students.

This is an informative and balanced podcast series about a top-notch school district and city that struggles with racism, bullying, and antisemitism. Hopefully NBC considers adding another podcast that discusses the recent school board meeting, the LACK of accountability (Wh!te privilege) in this school district for administrators, students, or teachers who make antisemitic and/or racist comments, and how the district and/or city is currently addressing these important issues.

Bottom line: As long as we Americans are dismissive of and choose to sanitize our full history, nothing will change. For people of color, our ‘history’ has caused shame, pain & and a mindset of unworthiness. We’ve been indoctrinated to fail. When other non white groups compare themselves to African Americans they forget we were brought here in bondage for almost 200years. The subjugation did not end in 1865.Praise God many of us survived & thrived under intentional enslavement in many forms, genocide & the withholding of basic rights & privileges. South Lake seem to not realize they are turning back the clock on divisiveness & hatred. I know they feel their intelligence & religion supports the perception of protecting their children against the harshness of the truth of American history. No one suggests that anyone be made to feel guilty, just knowledgeable, empathetic & willing to not be sucked into the negative views & attitudes of the past. Your children are not ‘vulnerable & fragile’. But they are who you make them to be. Free them to use the skills you claim you’ve taught them. They are already thriving in an inclusive world. Don’t make them racist and pretend you don’t see.
The podcast was hard to hear. It was painful to hear so many folks succumbing to fear & insecurity incited by a few with not so hidden agendas.
Thank you Mike & Antonia for shining a light unfortunately on the new/old America.

… doomed to repeat the past
