Blowing the whistle on a La Raza school

By Michelle Malkin  •  May 22, 2008 04:01 PM

I’ve reported in-depth on publicly-subsidized La Raza/The Race schools that abandon academics for Aztlan studies. The US Department of Education has forked over $8 million in public charter school grants to La Raza/The Race, which helps propagate such multi-culti claptrap as “Aztec math” in dozens of Mecha madrassas.

Now, John A. Ward, a former teacher at a Tucson High School magnet school that peddles a Raza/Race curriculum, gives an insider’s look at what’s being taught on your dime. Ward has been attacked as a “sellout” because of his Hispanic heritage. Here’s a key excerpt, but read the whole thing:

During the 2002-2003 school year, I taught a U.S. history course with a Mexican-American perspective. The course was part of the Raza/Chicano studies department.
Within one week of the course beginning, I was told that I was a “teacher of record,” meaning that I was expected only to assign grades. The Raza studies department staff would teach the class.

I was assigned to be a “teacher of record” because some members of the Raza studies staff lacked teaching certificates. It was a convenient way of circumventing the rules.
I stated that I expected to do more than assign grades. I expected to be involved in teaching the class. The department was less than enthusiastic but agreed.
Immediately it was clear that the class was not a U.S. history course, which the state of Arizona requires for graduation. The class was similar to a sociology course one expects to see at a university.

Where history was missing from the course, it was filled by controversial and biased curriculum.

The basic theme of the curriculum was that Mexican-Americans were and continue to be victims of a racist American society driven by the interests of middle and upper-class whites. In this narrative, whites are able to maintain their influence only if minorities are held down. Thus, social, political and economic events in America must be understood through this lens.
This biased and sole paradigm justified teaching that our community police officers are an extension of the white power structure and that they are the strongmen used “to keep minorities in their ghettos.”

It justified telling the class that there are fewer Mexican-Americans in Tucson Magnet High School’s advanced placement courses because their “white teachers” do not believe they are capable and do not want them to get ahead.

It justified teaching that the Southwestern United States was taken from Mexicans because of the insatiable greed of the Yankee who acquired his values from the corrupted ethos of Western civilization.

It was taught that the Southwest is “Atzlan,” the ancient homeland of the Aztecs, and still rightfully belongs to their descendants - to all people of indigenous Mexican heritage.

As an educator, I refused to be complicit in a curriculum that engendered racial hostility, irresponsibly demeaned America’s civil institutions, undermined our public servants, discounted any virtues in Western civilization and taught disdain for American sovereignty.

When I raised these concerns, I was told that I was a “racist,” despite being Hispanic. Acknowledging my heritage, the Raza studies staff also informed me that I was a vendido, the Spanish term for “sellout.”

The Tucson public school system is a favorite breeding ground for the Raza/Race ethnic nationalists.

You may recall that open-borders radical Dolores Huerta–Hillary Clinton’s campaign co-chair–was an invited speaker at a mandatory assembly at Tucson High Magnet School, where she inveighed that “Republicans hate Latinos.”

Flashback: Conservative high school student objects to Huerta’s hate-speak.

What does upcoming La Raza/The Race annual conference speaker John McCain have to say about this abuse of tax dollars for the spread of poisonous open-borders propaganda?

    Reconquista is Hate pure and simple, as well as the practice of perpetuating ignorance and very possibly encouragement of the overthrow of the Government and total disdain for US Law.

    Why that school has not been closed down amazes me. Tolerance of this Reconquista mindset may reach it’s limits very soon as the actual cost to the taxpayer for this bull$hit will become intolerable.

    Sheriff Joe has the right idea. Tucson hasn’t got it yet. Wait til the economy gets tighter and those that foot the bill for this nonsense become more aware of the rat holes that their dollars are going to.

    The awakening will be rude for sure but it is coming.

    Ah, the old “racists’ defense. A tried and tue defense of the race hustlers. For the life of me, I can not understand how our gov’t is so blind to the dangers imposed by this group (especially when you throw in MeCHA and LULAC). We are being undermined by a bunch of ingrates who are using our freedoms against us (not to mention our hospitality and inclusiveness). How can the pols not see this will imperil (dangerously) them or their children as well one day. This kind of nonsense leads to more than just words when they actually do gain power. Sigh.

    So, using that model, any Mexican-American citizen, that openly supports the Mecha/La Raza racism doctrine, is an American sellout, therefore, a traitor, right?

    They openly teach this stuff, and acquire recruits along the way, who are taught that white America is the enemy? And…they do it on OUR dime?

    How is this any different that what the Islamo-facists are doing in the middle East? Or for that matter, on US soil, under the guise of “religious freedom,” freedom of speech, and use anti-hate laws to overthrow/alter/compromise our “everyone is equal under the law” tenets?

    ISLAM - A SHORT SYNOPSIS OF HOW IT WORKS

    Islam is not a religion nor is it a cult. It is a complete system.

    Islam has religious, legal, political, economic and military
    components. The religious component is a beard for all the
    other components.

    Islamization occurs when there are sufficient Muslims in a country to
    agitate for their so-called ‘religious rights.’

    When politically correct and culturally diverse societies agree to ‘the
    reasonable’ Muslim demands for their ‘religious rights,’ they also get
    the other components under the table. Here’s how it works (percentages
    source CIA: The World Fact Book (2007)).

    As long as the Muslim population remains around 1% of any given country
    they will be regarded as a peace-loving minority and not as a threat to
    anyone. In fact, they may be featured in articles and films,
    stereotyped for their colorful uniqueness:

    United States — Muslim 1.0%
    Australia — Muslim 1.5%
    Canada — Muslim 1.9%
    China — Muslim 1%-2%
    Italy — Muslim 1.5%
    Norway — Muslim 1.8%

    At 2% and 3% they begin to proselytize from other ethnic minorities and
    disaffected groups with major recruiting from the jails and among
    street gangs:

    Denmark — Muslim 2%
    Germany — Muslim 3.7%
    United Kingdom — Muslim 2.7%
    Spain — Muslim 4%
    Thailand — Muslim 4.6%

    From 5% on they exercise an inordinate influence in proportion to their
    percentage of the population.

    They will push for the introduction of halal (clean by Islamic
    standards) food, thereby securing food preparation jobs for Muslims.
    They will increase pressure on supermarket chains to feature it on
    their shelves — along with threats for failure to comply. ( United
    States ).

    France — Muslim 8%
    Philippines — Muslim 5%
    Sweden — Muslim 5%
    Switzerland– Muslim 4.3%
    The Netherlands — Muslim 5.5%
    Trinidad &Tobago — Muslim 5.8%

    At this point, they will work to get the ruling government to allow
    them to rule themselves under Sharia, the Islamic Law. The ultimate
    goal of Islam is not to convert the world but to establish Sharia law
    over the entire world.

    When Muslims reach 10% of the population, they will increase
    lawlessness as a means of complaint about their conditions ( Paris —
    car-burnings). Any non-Muslim action that offends Islam will result in
    uprisings and threats ( Amsterdam — Mohammed cartoons).

    Guyana — Muslim 10%
    India — Muslim 13.4%
    Israel — Muslim 16%
    Kenya — Muslim 10%
    Russia — Muslim 10-15%

    After reaching 20% expect hair-trigger rioting, jihad militia
    formations, sporadic killings and church and synagogue burning:

    Ethiopia — Muslim 32.8%

    At 40% you will find widespread massacres, chronic terror attacks and
    ongoing militia warfare:

    Bosnia — Muslim 40%
    Chad — Muslim 53.1%
    Lebanon — Muslim 59.7%

    From 60% you may expect unfettered persecution of non-believers and
    other religions, sporadic ethnic cleansing (genocide), use of Sharia
    Law as a weapon and Jizya, the tax placed on infidels:

    Albania — Muslim 70%
    Malaysia — Muslim 60.4%
    Qatar — Muslim 77.5%
    Sudan — Muslim 70%

    After 80% expect State run ethnic cleansing and genocide:

    Bangladesh — Muslim 83%
    Egypt — Muslim 90%
    Gaza — Muslim 98.7%
    Indonesia — Muslim 86.1%
    Iran — Muslim 98%
    Iraq — Muslim 97%
    Jordan — Muslim 92%
    Morocco — Muslim 98.7%
    Pakistan — Muslim 97%
    Palestine — Muslim 99%
    Syria — Muslim 90%
    Tajikistan — Muslim 90%
    Turkey — Muslim 99.8%
    United Arab Emirates — Muslim 96%

    100% will usher in the peace of ‘Dar-es-Salaam’ — the Islamic House
    of Peace — there’s supposed to be peace because everybody is a Muslim:

    Afghanistan — Muslim 100%
    Saudi Arabia — Muslim 100%
    Somalia — Muslim 100%
    Yemen — Muslim 99.9%

    Of course, that’s not the case. To satisfy their blood lust, Muslims
    then start killing each other for a variety of reasons.

    ‘Before I was nine I had learned the basic canon of Arab life. It was
    me against my brother; me and my brother against our father; my family
    against my cousins and the clan; the clan against the tribe; and the
    tribe against the world and all of us against the infidel’ — Leon
    Uris, ‘The Haj’

    It is good to remember that in many, many countries, such as France ,
    the Muslim populations are centered around ghettos based on their
    ethnicity. Muslims do not integrate into the community at large.
    Therefore, they exercise more power than their national average
    would indicate.

    And we continue to cater and negotiate in a politically correct way so
    as not to ‘offend’ our Muslim ‘brothers.’

    Actually, I have a friend who’s children are half Costa Rican, half Lebanese. They were home schooled for a couple of years and now all are doing very well in the local high schools. The fourteen year old was doing a paper on who he felt was one of the most influential Americans and he chose…
    Benjamin Franklin. Keep these kids away from the propaganda claptrap and they are able to see the truth on their own. There is hope.

    I’ve been studying history, as a hobby, ever since I was 14.(I went to Gettysburg on a school trip and came home totally confused). Most “history” is biased to the victor, or the one presently in power, so it takes time, digging, to get to the real facts. Our own history, taught in our schools, tend to be biased…or just plain wrong in some cases. The vast majority of the mistakes can be placed with the books, the teacher has to use. This Mexican-American approach is just plain wrong. The intent is, not to teach correct history, but to teach political correctness. and to inflame the passions of hate. I despise that type of teaching, simply because the kids are trusting and innocent. Politics, pure and simple. All for votes and power. Eventually, the pot will boil over and we will have a “fight” on our hands. I’m close to retirement and I sympathize with younger people. You’ll have to fight the battles. I’ll be in my rocking chair, buried in some other obscure history book.

    In other news, on May 5th, my employer held a training for sensitivity to the plight of immigrants. The trainer, a man who works for Northwest Immigrant Rights Project, spoke about how we have it so easy and immigrants (illegal) have it so hard.

    For instance, we all wake up in the morning, take our showers, and think about all the happy, lovely things going on in our lives. “Undocumented workers” wake up from a troubled sleep, fearing that today may be the day they get discovered, arrested, or deported. They can’t sleep, or eat, or shower without this fear consuming them.

    Aaawwwwwwwwwww. Pobrecitos.

    The trainer also handed out examples of pamphlets and packets that they provide to illegals.

    Are you serious?!?!?

    I’ve never heard of teachers having to take such an oath! I did not take such an oath when I was teaching! Can you verify that with citations?

    By allowing the “Latino” ethnicity (all Hispanics are now considered “white” by the US government) to be catered too for education and language needs etc., they as a people are allowing themselves to be suppressed; then cry foul play. There isn’t any other foreign culture that is catered to as the Hispanic population and the other cultures not only learn the language and are fluent in it, they live the American dream without government aid. If we don’t get a grip on this problem soon, I fear we will be partaking in a civil war.

    ref: a Tucson High School magnet school that peddles a Raza/Race curriculum

    Can a school such as this really be accredited, if so are all Arizona school so degenerate, and if not is there an educational alert at the collegiate level to make sure such students are not admitted.

    Lets see, LaRaza math: all intricate algorithms that can be done using eight fingers. Such complicated formulas as add one finger or remove one finger, how many fingers remain. Advanced LaRaza math involves all intricate finger algorithms but the use of the two thumbs are included (can lead to a token Ph.D in math and a six figure income…you know the kind of work Americans won’t do).

    La Raza is the enemy.

    It is the enemy because it hates this country and its citizens and means to destroy the former and enslave the latter.

    Anyone who provides aid or comfort to Razies is a traitor.

    Is the logic wrong? If so, point out the error.

    If the logic is right, how hard is it to use the “T-word” on McCain and his ilk?

    Um, yeah, the fact that the TEXANS kicked their ass armys FIRST. THEN, the TEXANS became part of America. THEN, America kicked Mexicos ass armys AGAIN.

    Oh, and if you count Poncho Villa, America did it a third time too!

    Members of The Minuteman Organization—as well as other individuals/groups began investigating the Raza studies material/classes at this school about 7 months ago.

    It was discovered that the school district is spending $26 million a year toward these ethnocentric classes/programs, including the Raza Studies.

    Yet, last year, the school district said that they did not have enough money for the Summer school program for ALL students.

    Here is the original article about this, if anyone wants to comment there as well!!

    Just in case anyone doubts Mr. Ward or the information that he presented in his letter!!

    ‘Revolution’ one of the R’s taught in Tucson

    Doug MacEachern
    February 16, 2008
    Arizona Republic

    “Augustine Romero, director of Tucson Unified School District’s ethnic-studies department, is nothing if not candid about his program.

    Traditional history and civics courses, Romero argues, have “been highly ineffective to children of color.” He has a better way.

    That better way, as presented to students in Romero’s increasingly influential program, is, effectively, revolution. Or, if that “R-word” strikes you as too edgy, resistance - a resistance against history and civics as traditionally taught, which Romero considers the product of “ultraconservatives.”

    Contact your congress members and DEMAND that they stop all federal money—in other words, your tax dollars—from going to La Raza!!

    Also, say “NO” to the “No Child Left Behind Program”. La Raza is now involved in ALL aspects of the “NCLB” Program—which is why millions of tax payers dollars now have to be spent on ESL classes, teachers, tutors, programs, etc. for the children of illegals!!!

    A litte tidbit not taught in US history: William Tecumseh Sherman (that same civil war Sherman) opposed the peace treaty with Mexico because it did “not impress the Mexicans with respect for us”. The US should have “burned their capital, blown up San Juan d’Alloa, knocked down Mazatalan” as a way of indicting “the obstinate pride, egotism and nonsense that characterized them as a people”. Sherman had little tolerance for people who did not respect the bearers of law and order. (form Sherman, by J. Marszalek) How different things would be today, if Sherman had had his way.

    TUSD’s Raza unit survives under fire

    Ethnic studies dept. could grow, reach younger kids

    By Rhonda Bodfield
    ARIZONA DAILY STAR
    Tucson, Arizona | Published: 05.25.2008

    “Calls are heating up to kill the Tucson Unified School District’s ethnic studies program — at the same time it becomes more likely that the district’s most controversial department could expand to reach more, and younger, students.

    Critics, from the state’s schools chief to lawmakers to conservative talk-show hosts and columnists, have singled out Mexican-American/Raza Studies in particular, saying it’s divisive and turns students into angry revolutionaries.

    …….For now, she’s asking for a discussion about equity within the ethnic studies’ $2.3 million budget, given that African-American Studies gets more funding and staff in a district overwhelmingly Latino. ”
