Letter to the Editor: History lesson

Posted

Dear Editor,

Perry County is my home, it’s where I raise my Children and my Children raise their own little babies, and I’m proud of the place where I lay my head at night and pray for a better world for all of us.
Our School District 32 has very recently voted on a curriculum resource in a 5-2 vote that does not reflect Perry County’s traditional educational and conservative Christian values, this resource is Amplify ( look it up) for English Language Arts and Openup Resources, both are laden with Liberal ideologies cleverly woven into the assignments.
Example: The Titanic!  
The coursework asks children not to necessarily consider the tragedy, the heroism and the loss of life, but rather to reflect on the race, gender and class warfare of the passengers in a different place and time than we might find ourselves today, this once again makes Children reflect on division instead of unity, sex and gender instead of gallantry and cooperation.
This kind of coursework is developed by people in far off places who celebrate many things that we as Perry Countians would not, should not support, same sex marriage, drag shows, modern Marxist academia and Socialism to name a few.

Go to Amplify’s website, Amplify.Com, and see the “Pride” they take in their vision for your Children and Grandchildren.
I consider this program and it’s ideology far to Liberal for our small hometown!
Thank you!
With all due respect,

Keith A Carroll
