Black Lives Matter is coming to a public school near you.

The national organization Black Lives Matter at School (BLMS) is seeking to foment a “new uprising for racial justice” by injecting Black Lives Matter’s “guiding principles” (including concepts such as “globalism,” “transgender affirming” and “queer affirming”) into school curriculums throughout the country.

BLMS already has the endorsement of the National Education Association, the largest teachers union in the U.S.

The union’s EDJustice website extolls BLMS, arguing that “As racism and xenophobia become more prevalent and overt in our schools and communities, it is more important than ever to listen to and elevate the voices, experiences, and history of our fellow citizens and communities under attack.” 

“The goal of Black Lives Matter at School is to spark an ongoing movement of critical reflection and honest conversation in school communities for people of all ages to engage with issues of racial justice.”

What does BLMS want to teach our children? A document written by BLM activist Laleña Garcia, a self-described “queer kindergarten teacher,” provides a glimpse.

Titled “How to talk to young children about the Black Lives Matter Guiding Principles,” the document encourages educators to “consider age-appropriate language” as they indoctrinate students with cultural Marxist ideology such as “intersectionality” and “transgenderism.”

Many of the terms included in the document are pulled from Black Lives Matter’s 13 guiding principles. They include Globalism, described as “our ability to see how we are impacted or privileged within the Black global family that exists across the world in different regions.”

It’s no surprise that an organization funded by uber-globalist George Soros is teaching kids that globalism is a big beautiful way of everybody living together as one family⁠ — not a ploy by global elites to establish a totalitarian one-world government bereft of the safeguards to freedom our Republic offers us. 

The document defines “black families” as “creates a space that is family friendly and free from patriarchal practices.” Even though fatherlessness is a major driver of poverty and crime in black communities, BLMS decries the “patriarchal” practice of a father serving as head of the household.

BLMS is upfront about its desire to destroy families as we know it, stating in the document that “Black Villages is the disruption of Western nuclear family dynamics and a return to the ‘collective village’ that takes care of each other.”

Black Lives Matter’s insistence on creating a “collective village” comes from the same ideological place as Hillary Clinton’s It Takes a Village children’s book. One of the main objectives of the one worlders, the communists, and their Enlightenment-era intellectual precursors has always been eliminating the traditional family unit and replacing it with a system in which children are reared by the state.

Here’s what the document has to say about families: “There are lots of different kinds of families; what makes a family is that it’s people who take care of each other; those people might be related, or maybe they choose to be family together and to take care of each other.”

Elsewhere, Garcia writes, “It’s important to make sure that all families feel welcome.” In other words, a family isn’t a family. A family can be anything, including government caretakers.

The definition for “transgender affirming” reads, “The commitment to continue to make space for our trans siblings by encouraging leadership and recognizing trans-antagonistic violence, while doing the work required to dismantle cisgender privilege and uplift Black trans folk.”

Meanwhile, “queer affirming” is “Working towards a queer-affirming network where heteronormative thinking no longer exists.”

Garcia’s writing is pure social-justice word salad: pseudo-scientific-sounding psychobabble meant to dress up Marxist tyranny and make it palatable to minorities. An actual read-through and meditation on what Black Lives Matter believes should be enough to convince most people that their ideology is poison for black lives and all lives.

It’s right in keeping with previous writing by Garcia, who has written that intersectionality is “the complex, cumulative way in which the effects of multiple forms of discrimination (such as racism, sexism, and classism) combine, overlap, or intersect especially in the experiences of marginalized individuals or groups.”

That the Left is attempting to force this thinly veiled propaganda on our children should be worrisome to every parent and prompt phone calls and letters to school boards and principals — or convince parents to pull their children out of public schools altogether.

If Black Lives Matter gets its way, it’ll soon be social justice instead of STEM in classrooms throughout America.
