" The Rev. Robert E. Farrow,pastor of Holy Cross Church of God and Christ, described how he was subjected to racism from the moment he entered kindergarten " ( Providence Journal , Oct. 8 -B4 )
" Yes , I got into fights as a child ", he says . Is the Rev. Farrow suggesting that white kids in kindergarten are already hardened racists, eager to experience their first lynching ?
As a matter of fact, when white teachers talk candidly about their black pupils, they often mention the belligerence of these kids- which they attribute to dysfunctional families.
The Projo article focused on the evils of " hate crime ". But little kids do not need to be taught ANYTHING about racism , sexism, or homophobia. Just teach them the Ten Commandments ( even budding atheists should go along with the program ! ) . And they'll turn out to be nice and decent in their relationships with other kids. And they'll not fill our prisons !
Teach them the ancient wisdom - not political correctness. And they'll not grow up to be fools - or worse fools with an agenda.
