The Anti-Defamation League and several other prominent Jewish-American organizations sued the Santa Ana district claiming it adopted its ethnic studies curriculum in an illegal, discriminatory mann…
There suddenly appears to be a strong possibility that the ethnic studies course requirement state legislators and Gov. Gavin Newsom adopted two years ago as a California high school graduation requirement may never become reality in many places.
Among other things, the early versions of the model curriculum adopted by the state claimed that immigrant groups including Irish-, Polish- and Jewish-Americans arrived in this country with built-in “white privilege,” no matter how poverty-ridden and filled with discrimination their lives really were.
The reason for this attempted distinction is clear: the ethnic studies authors – many dedicated to the cause of “liberated” or “critical” ethnic studies, do not want to be accused of anti-Semitism, even while they back largely unfounded claims that Israel is a racist “apartheid” state that persecutes Palestinians.
But because the 2021 AB 101, the measure that established the upcoming new graduation requirement, allows school boards to devise their own curricula, and not use the state’s model, the authors of rejected ethnic studies versions remain active and continue making money off their prejudices.
