Oregon DOE spending $1.9 on ‘antiracist fellowship’ teachers’ training

By Hannah Grossman, Fox News
July 8, 2022

Oregon’s Department of Education allocated nearly $2 million for a fellowship that would train K-12 educators from diverse backgrounds to reject the “eurocentric worldview” of “individualism,” Fox News Digital has learned.

The antiracist fellowship, funded by ODE, is broken down into several arcs for “decentering.” One of them is pushing back against the “euro-centric worldview” on “individualism.”

“We are more than our titles and more than the roles we’ve been assigned; this arc will create space for each fellow to identify and unpack their multiple identities of self,” the arc stated.

Another arc focused on “unlearning;” fellows will learn to “practice understanding themselves as a grounded bridge between curriculum and their students.” This arc will also focus on “unlearn[ing] harmful practices that deny self, story, relationship, and context.”

The total cost for the 23-month project will be $1,929,637.50. The fellowship will teach at most 600 educators how to create “racially affirming environments” in their classrooms. Affirming means that the teachers’ identities are “seen” and “honored” in classrooms, ODE told Fox News Digital.

That's it ... teach the kids to embrace collectivism on the Animal Farm, where some will be more equal than others.
