Greenwich PTAC To Hold Anti-Semitism & Anti-Hate Forum

On Friday, May 24, 2024, at 9:30am, the Greenwich Parent-Teacher Association (PTAC) will be holding a forum titled: "Anti-Semitism and Anti-Hate: The impact on our Kids"  via Zoom. Also joining the forum will be First Selectman Fred Camillo’s Anti-Semitism & Anti-Hate Task Force . Additionally, Erika Brunwasser, Associate Regional Director of the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) will be participating.

In a previous post, we noted that schools are incorporating woke principles by diversifying course materials, teaching about social issues such as racism, sexism, and LGBTQ+ rights, and encouraging critical thinking about power structures and societal norms.  Why, then, does the Greenwich PTA feel the need to continue pushing their social justice agenda on children, parents, taxpayers and residents?

We believe parents are more concerned with obtaining the best education for their children. Greenwich taxpayers, who fund Greenwich Public Schools and spend more dollars per pupil than most other school districts, are more interested in using these dollars to raise educational standards and have top performing students.

By contrast, Greenwich PTAC appears to have no interest in these things. With Camillo and his task force supporting this agenda, we continue to hear that wokeness does not exist at GPS. Once again, we’re not buying it. In fact, by all appearances, Greenwich PTAC, the task force and the Connecticut ADL are colluding to normalize this agenda.

Keep in mind, Greenwich PTAC has their own website page on the Board of Education (BOE) website with its own Diversity, Equity and Inclusion (DEI) committee. Perhaps they should focus their attention on ensuring a great education for children, hiring and retaining the best teachers, fundraising for events and trips and thoughtfully engaging with all stakeholders suggesting areas of improvement when appropriate.

If you are planning to attend the forum via Zoom, you will be required to register with your full name. Hopefully, you’re starting to see the reason behind this.

Dear Establishment Republicans, We're Tired of Your "Bipartisanship"

Image
  Screenshot (Public Domain) Bipartisanship, the concept of both political parties working together towards common goals, is often seen as a key component of a functioning democracy. In a state like Connecticut, where the political landscape is largely dominated by Democrats, the idea of bipartisanship only benefits one side of the aisle. This is because bipartisanship tends to work in favor of the party that holds power, which in Connecticut's case, is the Democratic Party. Despite the intentions of bipartisanship to promote compromise and cooperation between parties, it always leads to unequal outcomes and favoritism of the Democrat agenda. One of the main reasons why bipartisanship always works in favor of Connecticut Democrats is the sheer number of Democratic representatives in the state legislature. With Democrats holding a majority in both the state House and Senate, they have more power to push their agenda and initiatives through, even with some bipartisan support. This ...

Trump Debates ABC News Democrat Operatives

Image
  Screenshot (abcnews.com) Millions of Americans and the world tuned in last night to watch the very first and perhaps the only debate between former President Doanld Trump and VP Kamala Harris in Philadelphia. The debate was "moderated" by ABC "journalists" David Muir and Lindsey Davis.  Kamala And ABC Hosts Lie At Debate  Read Before the actual debate started, Trump set the tone by having Harris walk over to his podium to shake his hand. Within the first ten minutes, viewer knew exactly how this debate was going to play out. Trump was debating three people: Harris, Muir and Davis. It was interesting to see but not shocking these so-called moderators were fact checking every word that came out of Trump's mouth. We're pretty sure Trump knew what he was up against last entering the "lion's den." Make no mistake, Muir and Davis are Democrat operatives. Their fact checking follow ups and comments were exaggerations or outright lies. For example, T...

With a Clear Mandate From Millions of Americans, President Trump Elected as 47th President of the United States!

Image
  Screenshot (KTLA 5) I f you were like many Americans yesterday you went out and voted, then kept your eyes on the TV or your device to get the minute-by-minute score on the Trump Vs Kamala scoreboard of states. Like many of you, we debated which every possible path to 270 electoral votes that President Trump has to the ones that Kamala Harris did not. We watched in excitement and nervousness as some states were shaded light red or were too close to call at the time. One thing we knew for sure; we had faith that Trump would make it across the finish line because Trump has a message that resonates with all of us. Millions of Americans likely stayed up into the wee hours of the night as if watching a movie, you just can’t take your eyes off. The type where you’re waiting for the acme, biting your nails with every passing minute, hoping all those voting stations would close already and call the election for Trump. As with most things, our patience eventually paid off as we watched on...
