2021-02-24 18:00:19 ‘All white people play a part in perpetuating systemic racism’ – Buffalo schools claim to students

Buffalo schools have introduced a new curriculum that teaches children ‘all white people play a part in perpetuating systemic racism’.

Lesson plans devised by Fatima Morrell - an associate superintendent for Culturally and Linguistically Responsive Initiatives in Buffalo public schools - have been obtained by City Journal.

Teachers are encouraged to be more ‘woke’ and controversially Morrell suggests teaching kindergarten classes about black CHILDREN KILLED by POLICE.

A teacher told City Journal that Morrell’s curriculum pushes ‘radical politics’ and lessons are ‘scolding’s, guilt-trips, and demands to demean oneself simply to make another feel empowered’.

2021-02-24 17:30:06 Civil service ‘caved’ to TRANSGENDER PRESSURE - ANGER at gender census question U-turn

The campaign group Fair Play for Women have launched a High Court challenge, accusing civil servants of caving to last-minute pressure from transgender activists – to make it easier for people to PICK their gender in the UK census.

Initially the Office of National Statistics had stated that people would only be able state the sex on your birth certificate or gender recognition certificate in the March census.

They updated their guidance on Feb 12th to include a persons passport. Passport gender can be changed with a doctor’s certificate – much quicker than a gender recognition certificate, which can take more than two years.

A spokesperson for Fair Play for Women accused the ONS of ‘unlawfully messing around with the definition of sex’ and trans lobby group Stonewall of ‘a complete stitch up’ on the ONS.

The ONS have rejected any claims of bias and denied it had been put under pressure.

Twitter users wanting to retweet the post were also confronted by a pop-up warning label, asking users to ‘help keep Twitter a place for reliable info’.

2021-02-24 14:00:17 75-year-old BLM protestor shoved by Buffalo police – files LAWSUIT after cops’ charges DROPPED

Martin Gugino, 75, a BLM protestor who suffered a fractured skull after being shoved to the ground by two Buffalo police officers, is suing the officers after they ESCAPED CRIMINAL charges.

Video footage from the incident on June 4th last year went viral - Officers Aaron Torgalski and Robert McCabe shoving Gugino, causing blood to pour from a head wound.

Torgalski and McCabe were initially charged with felony and assault counts and suspended without pay, but earlier this month a grand jury DISMISSED the charges.

Gugino’s lawsuit is seeking economic damages from the officers ‘in an amount sufficient to punish them and deter others from similar conduct’. The two officers remain suspended pending an internal investigation.
