Colleges, grade-schools, All are PC. When will we take them back?

The lefties and the PC crowd are at work even in our schools!

The reading assignments for the controversial class present terrorists in a sympathetic light and justify their actions as fighting against an imperialistic American regime.

Joe Connor, the cousin of 9/11 victim Steve Schlag, said on "Fox and Friends" that the fact that this course is being taught at a public university is crazy and outrageous.

"Our country's gone backwards. We're upside down," Connor said. "They try to justify this as 'they're just doing what they think is right for their people' ... How dare they."

Connor said that instead of focusing on the terrorists who carried out the terrible attacks, people should focus on the 3,000 innocent people who lost their lives.

"Each of them had a story, each of them was a person and each of them left a family. And that's what's being left out by this professor."

None of the assigned readings view attacks from perspective of Sept. 11 victims' families

An English class offered at UNC Chapel Hill this fall called "Literature of 9/11" explores the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks from the perspective of radical Islamists and those who view America as an imperialist nation.
The reading assignments for the class, which includes poems, memoirs and graphic novels, present terrorists in a sympathetic light and American political leaders as greedy, war hungry and corrupt, according to a review by The College Fix.

The readings mostly focus on justifying the actions of terrorists - painting them as fighting against an American regime, or mistaken idealists, or good people just trying to do what they deem right. None of the readings assigned in the freshman seminar present the Sept. 11 attacks from the perspective of those who died or from American families who lost loved ones.

2 --People are outraged about a letter reportedly sent from school officials to two parents telling them that their daughter's Wonder Woman lunchbox violates the school's dress code.

"We noticed that Laura has a Wonder Woman lunchbox that features a superhero image," the letter says. "In keeping with the dress code of the school, we must ask that she not bring this to school."

"The dress code we have established requests that the children not bring violent images into the building in any fashion – on their clothing (including shoes and socks), backpacks and lunchboxes."
The school’s name and address are redacted in the letter, which was posted anonymously to Reddit.

On "Fox and Friends," Tucker Carlson said that this is another example of the liberal tradition of blaming objects for social problems.

"'It's the gun's fault. It's the lunchbox's fault. Your T-shirt did this. 'The Dukes of Hazzard' has a Confederate flag, we must pull it off the air,'" Carlson said. "They're missing the obvious point, which is when the family collapses, people's behavior changes, not in a good way."
