Episode description
How far gone is Illinois (and by “gone,” I mean arrogantly leftist)?
Well, despite statewide and even nationwide condemnation of the proposed “Culturally Responsive Teaching and Leading Standards,” the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules (JCAR) just passed them along partisan lines.
In a vote delayed by one day, JCAR voted 6-5 to approve these standards that will infuse the assumptions of Critical Race Theory/ identity politics/BLM into 1. all teacher-training programs, 2. all Professional Education Licensing (PEL), and 3. indirectly into all public school classrooms.
