Ron DeSantis has been fighting to rid the educational system of woke indoctrination.
The federal government is poised to fundamentally transform government schools.
And Joe Biden set up a showdown with Ron DeSantis when he unveiled this woke scheme.
Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) is the driving force behind nearly every major decision made by President Joe Biden’s administration.
His federal budget proposal contains ambitious plans to bring even more DEI initiatives into the nation’s classrooms.
Joe Biden wants more than $100 million to train woke teachers
Biden released his bloated $7.3 trillion federal budget, which included hundreds of millions of dollars dedicated to DEI training for teachers.
Money in the proposed budget is also used to “improve the diversity of the teacher pipeline.”
In order to advance the woke agenda, $30 million in the budget goes to the Hawkins Centers of Excellence to increase the number of teachers who are trained in diversity, sexuality, and gender orientations through federally funded programs.
These teacher training programs through the Hawkins Centers of Excellence must be set at minority-focused colleges like historically black colleges or colleges primarily educating Hispanics or women.
The programs must “examine the sources of inequity and inadequacy in resources and opportunity and implement pedagogical practices in teacher preparation programs that are inclusive with regard to race, ethnicity, culture, language, and disability status and that prepare teachers to create inclusive, supportive, equitable, unbiased, and identity-safe learning environments for their students.”
Another program, the Teacher Quality Partnership Program, receives nearly $100 million to fund grants to train teachers.
These grants prioritize minority teachers over white teachers to “create inclusive, supportive, equitable, unbiased, and identity-safe learning environments for their students.”
“The Department recognizes that diverse educators will play a critical role in ensuring equity in our education system,” the Education Department said.
The Biden administration is trying to indoctrinate the next generation of teachers in DEI to keep this radical ideology in classrooms.
Florida fights back against woke teacher training
Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is trying to eliminate DEI from government schools in the Sunshine State.
With the federal government spending huge sums to provide DEI indoctrination to teachers, Florida is trying to ban it for the state’s teachers.
The Florida Legislature passed a bill this session that bans teacher training programs from having “systemic racism,” “identity politics,” and other DEI agenda items as part of their curriculum.
The fight over the DEI in education is expanding beyond the classroom to how teachers are actually being trained.
