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. - John Ward, former teacher at Tucson High Magnet School.

Eliminating a radical La Raza ("The Race") studies program in an Arizona public school district is unconstitutional and restricts free speech, according to a group of teachers who are suing the state to reinstate the taxpayer-financed curriculum that one instructor says "ignited racial hostility."

The Tucson Unified School District’s Mexican American/Raza Studies program was eliminated earlier this year when the state enacted a measure -- HB 2281 -- to stop funding ethnic studies curriculums that advocate the overthrow of the U.S. government.

In 1998 the district created the Mexican American/Raza Studies division -- renamed “Mexican-American Studiesâ€

Furthermore, they claim that students who take the La Raza courses score higher on standardized tests, graduate from high school at higher rates, improve their overall grades and have better school attendance records, but have offered no evidence of those claims

YEAH I would say that is BS.......

A lot of information there. Interesting read

The whole world went through all these changes as well, throughout our entire history. MIGRATION!

And today we now have recognized countries and borders with their own sets of LAWS

The La Raza courses are inaccurate and racist. The only ethnic culture studies that should be taught in public schools is American.
