***COMMENTS FROM DONNA GARNER: When David Coleman finished his work as the architect of the Common Core, he became the president of the College Board. He immediately stated publicly that all products of The College Board would align with Common Core. He kept his promise. The College Board publishes the SAT, Pre-SAT, and all Advanced Placement materials. These all follow Obama’s Type #2 Common Core (social justice, LGBTQ, CRT, DEI).
============================
WASHINGTON – Today, Education and the Workforce Committee Chairwoman Virginia Foxx (R-NC) issued the following statement in response to the College Board’s updated African-American studies course:
“This spring, the College Board released an Advanced Placement (AP) African-American studies course that was chock-full of woke dogma and troubling teachings. After a public outcry, the College Board promised revisions. It seems it hasn’t learned its lesson.
“The revised version of the course still contains a number of concerning aspects, such as positive references to Kimberlé Crenshaw, one of the architects of Critical Race Theory, and a sympathetic portrayal of NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick’s decision to kneel for our national anthem.
“These kinds of teachings are contrary to the values of our country, and it is simply inexcusable that AP students could potentially feel pressured to agree with a slanted version of history in order to pass the course. The last thing our students need is for the College Board to infuse leftist politics and radical perspectives in a course that should be completely apolitical. It’s a shame that the College Board has chosen to politicize such an important topic.”
