The New Far-Left Curriculum Transforming Our Public Schools
By Robert Steven Ingebo

"Deep Equity," developed by the Corwin company, is quickly becoming the new standard curriculum being taught in our public schools.  If you've never heard of it, you soon will.  It's in San Tan Valley in Arizona; Chicago, Illinois; Louisville, Kentucky; the entire Cleveland Ohio public school district; charter schools in California; and many more American cities as well as Canada.

This is how their website describes it:

    The Deep Equity framework, based on the work of Gary Howard, helps schools and districts establish the climate, protocols, common language, and common goal of implementing culturally responsive teaching practices.

    The Deep Equity approach is based on the belief that scholastic inequities are symptomatic of institutional biases and norms that must be directly challenged through systemic, ongoing, and authentic work.

Title and premise:
"The New Far-Left Curriculum Transforming Our Public Schools..."

There is nothing "new" going on here.
It has its roots going back to the early 20th century.
See:
- Antonio Gramsci
- The Frankfurt School
- Herbert Marcuse and "critical theory".
