@TaliaMagoon [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [05]: My ears are still ringing from #KatharineBirbalsingh's #racist dog whistles about #Woke & #CRT. By linking them also to kids who identify as animals brings to mind -*nudge/wink*- the "half devil, half child" in Kipling's "White Man's Burden".

"...so why do I need to throw all of you into detention? Because you haven't been paying enough attention to the fact that our nation's culture is not only created in our schools but that it is our children who are leading the development of that culture in our schools adult authority is long gone. So here I am ringing the alarm. In 20 years many of us will be retired or sadly dead, and the children in our schools will be in important and influential positions in our institutions. As G.K Chesterton said the true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him but because he loves what is behind him. Well, I'm asking how much do you love your country, how much do you love the values that you claim to defend? Do you love them enough to tweet under your own name do you love them enough to change your child's school to one that's less woke and ignore the impact on your social status? Do you love them enough to do more than simply chat to your friends who already agree with you at dinner parties. For Heaven's sake man, stand up and be counted! As Russell Crowe says in the film Gladiator (a clip I regularly play for my staff): 'Hold the line! Stay with me!... what we do in life... echoes in eternity. Will your life echo hollow with cowardly hypocrisy or will it echo with courage, valiance and honour? The choice is yours strength and honour be with you all!' Now get yourselves to detention!"

It's something people can really feel angry about, but how widely is this sentiment shared? Last summer, an Opinium poll of Tory members found trans issues were 26th on their list of priorities.

Ancient Greeks, Romans, and others displayed varieties of xenophobia, but almost always with an 'escape hatch' in conversion or assimilation. Slow movements toward essentialism in prejudices about European Jewry and Black Africans took place over centuries.

And although the association of the color black with evil has long roots, it didn't translate everywhere into anti-Black sentiment.

Fredrickson, in its incipient biologization of difference. Similarly, while it was never universally accepted, the so-called curse of Ham gradually connected Black Africans with Noah's son Ham, who was cursed by his father to be a servant.

"THE GENETICS OF SKIN COLOR: IS PALE SKIN RELATED TO ALBINISM? A fifth gene, 'SLC24A5', has recently been shown to impact skin pigmentation and to have a derived selected allele near fixation in Europeans (Lamason et al., 2005; Voight et al, 2006; Soejima and Koda, 2006). Genetic studies show that the high frequencies of this variant allele in European populations may be associated with a substantial reduction in regional heterozygosity (Lamason et al., 2005; Soejima et al, 2006). This tends to tie in with other molecular genetic research that has shown Europeans to have among the world's lowest levels of genetic variation which results in lower heterozygosity levels (Weber et al, 2002; Watkins et al 2003). Heterozygosity is thought to enhance resistance of hosts to infectious diseases, offers a greater degree of fitness for one or the other allele, and improves overall health (Gangestad & Buss 1993, Thornhill & Gangestad 1993). Reduced levels of genetic variation and heterozygosity have also been linked to lower reproductive and evolutionary fitness (Lacy 1987; Reed and Frankham, 2003)."

Addendum significantly, the image included with this meme lacks explanation - presumably this is because its meaning is assumed to be known. According to this article: https://archleague.org/article/cheyenne-river-reservation-boarding-schools/ the image is held by the #OrgUSFedGovCongressLibraryOfCongressLC and (as per its caption) shows: "Seven Indian children, 1897, before entering Hampton boarding school. Photo taken on the Rosebud Reservation in South Dakota. Credit: Jesse H. Bratley". 1897 The image is used as evidence of #PolicyCulturalAssimilation / #PhenomnGenocide

@CortneySaraniti [name pseudonymized] [ontology] [04]: @teach_n_travel “Flanagan said this week during an interview ‘numerous good reports’ about residential schools were being discounted due to ‘wokeism.’”
Why are #Conservatives are getting away with saying that to be #woke is a BAD thing?

#AdvocacyCABroadbentInstitutePressProgressMitchellThompson "In the interview, Flanagan acknowledged residential schools 'had drawbacks,' but he also echoed statements he has made previously defending the utility of residential schools as a 'pragmatic response to the realities of trying to educate a widely-distributed population':
'I haven't heard anyone say what would be a practical alternative to Residential Schools. Would you say no school at all? If we hadn't set up any schools Canada would be condemned today for leaving this population in ignorance.'
Regarding the indisputable evidence of sexual and physical abuse at residential schools, Flanagan suggested the news has not taken a balanced approach - something he blames on 'wokeism.'
'I think any honest approach would try to draw the balance,' Flanagan told True North. 'What has happened is people with strong ideological convictions, what today is often called 'wokeism', have taken the bad reports and woven them into their narrative while discounting the numerous good reports.'
Flanagan elaborated on his thoughts:
'The historical record is mixed as it is for all human institutions. You know, if I can draw a comparison for a second, if you look at the literature surrounding boarding schools in England at the time which were used for the children of elite parents, many students love their schools. Others report horrifying reports of physical and sexual abuse at these schools. So, for residential schools in Canada, you'll also find a mixed set of reports. '
In a statement to PressProgress, Flanagan said he 'absolutely' stands behind his statement that news reports about the discovery of unmarked graves at residential schools is 'fake news.'
Asked whether he disputes the Truth and Reconciliation Commission's findings that children died as a result of abuse in residential schools, Flanagan said: 'I dispute this as a generalization.'" https://pressprogress.ca/fraser-institute-fellow-tom-flanagan-news-stories-about-residential-school-graves-are-fake-news/
