‘Schools are becoming indoctrination centers for cultural radicals,’ says AFA Executive Vice President
TUPELO, Miss. — With midterm elections coming up, the American Family Association (AFA, www.AFA.net) says a new poll shows the importance of many parents waking up to the brainwashing that has taken over American classrooms. The poll shows the majority of parents are deeply opposed to using school for this purpose. A whopping 79% of those polled said only inflation (88%) is a bigger issue than the indoctrination their children daily confront in the classroom. 64% said parents do not have enough say in what’s taught, 60% said transgender policies are a problem, and 60% said there was too much focus on race.
American Family Association Executive Vice President Ed Vitagliano said parents need to push back and expel indoctrination by education radicals and continue asserting rightful parental authority over what children are really taught in their schools.
“When almost three out of every four parents say they are extremely or very concerned about what’s being taught in public schools, it’s a clear indication that the education system in America is seriously warped,” Vitagliano said. “Parents are starting to see that the schools are becoming indoctrination centers for cultural radicals instead of being centers of education. Moreover, adults are also increasingly concerned that these same schools are ignoring parental objections. It’s time for radical changes all right — just not the kind imagined by the cultural Marxists.”
