I Took An Anti-Racist Training Workshop For Parents. Here’s What I Learned.
The push for “anti-racism” is moving beyond the classroom. School districts are now insisting that parents spark conversations about race and gender at the dinner table, at the movie theatre, and when their child is browsing the internet.
In Montgomery County, Maryland, one of the nation’s most affluent areas, parents of elementary-aged children were encouraged to participate in a “caregiver” training program on “anti-racism.” The program was run through Ashburton Elementary School in the Montgomery County Public School district.
Pardon My Whiteness
For all the decades I’ve been alive, I never realized that my whiteness was a problem for the rest of society. I’m one of those people who merely gets up every day, brushes his teeth, gets dressed, eats a decent breakfast, and goes to work.
I had no idea that in the U.S. and other western nations white people like me had been “socialized to feel that they are inherently superior because they are white.” Gosh, how naive I have been all these years!

The Danger of Appeasing the Mullahs
Turkey and the European Union are on the same page when it comes to pursuing appeasement policies with the Iranian regime. How do the ruling mullahs of Iran repay the favor? Through assassinations and terror plots.

Reportedly, the Iranian diplomat was a staff member in the Iranian Consulate in Istanbul and had forged travel documents for Ali Esfandiari, who orchestrated the assassination of Molavi Vardanjani.

Blair Says China a Main Source of Fentanyl Fuelling Opioid Crisis Killing Canadians … Doesn’t say he’s gonna do anything about it
China is one of the main manufacturers of fentanyl and plays a key role in the current overdose crisis in Canada, Public Safety Minister Bill Blair told a parliamentary committee on Feb. 25.

No surprise there’s turmoil in the potato patch, weeping in the vegetable cellar.
It’s all in the wake of that Hasbro crowd sucking up to the woke crowd and trying to knock the most famous potato in the world, one of the toy company’s top-sellers for almost 70 years, off his — deservedly earned — Patriarch-of-all-the-Starches Throne, the venerable Mr. Potato Head.
