California public school leaders – including an elected school board member, senior administrators and ethnic studies teachers – are behind a “liberation” consulting agency whose curriculum glorifies communism, including one activist who expressed support for Osama bin Laden, according to a Friday report.

“These agendas can damage the United States internally by instilling hostile and inaccurate views of American democracy into school kids, erroneously portraying our democratic system as fundamentally racist, violent, and oppressive,” the Institute for Liberal Values said in its report. It blasted the curriculum’s “radical anti-American and anti-Western ideas.”

Liberated Ethnic Studies Model Curriculum Consortium (LESMCC) – used in numerous California districts – is being led by Oak Grove school board member – Dr. Taunya Jaco, San Lorenzo’s assistant superintendent – Tracie Noriega, and Samia Shoman – who oversees curriculum at San Mateo Unified school district. Two public school ethnic studies educators – Guillermo Gomez and Guadalupe Carrasco Cardona – are also leaders at the consulting agency, according to its website.
