Teacher Has Elementary School Kids Do A Mock Black Power Rally

America needs all the help it can get when it comes to our education system. It seems Leftists have taken over academia on all levels. College students protest whenever conservative speakers attempt to bring a real perspective and it appears even elementary schools are not safe. A fifth-grade Pennsylvania teacher had her students do a mock black power rally where they protested they honored communist Angela Davis.

“According to whistleblower documents and a source within the school, a fifth-grade teacher at the inner-city William D. Kelley School designed a social studies curriculum to celebrate Davis, praising the “black communist” for her fight against “injustice and inequality.” As part of the lesson, the teacher asked students to “describe Davis’ early life,” reflect on her vision of social change, and “define communist”—presumably in favorable terms.

At the conclusion of the unit, the teacher-led the ten- and eleven-year-old students into the school auditorium to “simulate” a Black Power rally to “free Angela Davis” from prison, where she had once been held while awaiting trial on charges of conspiracy, kidnapping, and murder. The students marched on the stage, holding signs that read “Black Power,” “Jail Trump,” “Free Angela,” and “Black Power Matters.” They chanted about Africa and ancestral power, then shouted “Free Angela! Free Angela!” as they stood at the front of the stage.

The William D. Kelley School has long been one of the most troubled in the district. The school’s student population is 94 percent black and 100 percent “economically disadvantaged.” Academically, it is one of the worst-performing schools in Pennsylvania. By sixth grade, only 3 percent of students are proficient in math, and 9 percent are proficient in reading. By graduation, only 13 percent of Kelley students will have achieved basic literacy.”

You have to wonder, what is she thinking here? The students in this school are failing when it comes to the basics and they are wasting their time with a mock black power rally. How is that helping anyone? They should be taking any free time dedicated to this kind of nonsense and working on basic literacy. These kids need to learn things that will help them to excel not leftist propaganda.
