Conservative
news outlets are pointing out the obvious – our children have been
indoctrinated into socialism for 33-40 years and this indoctrination is finally
bearing fruit. We have bred a nation of young, entitled citizens who do not
like to work, do not like to read or study anything too involved or complicated
that exceeds Twitter’s 140 words, do not take responsibility for their actions,
exhibit righteous indignation if their demands are not met, claim racism and
hate speech if others disagree with them, and are afraid of their shadows.
Students
no longer explore and discuss the history of America even in the History
Department of the local college – it has long been replaced by courses that
praise and promote sexual, “racial and ethnic differences,” instead of highlighting
our common American heritage, what made America great and an exceptional nation
that has contributed to the betterment of mankind. Socialist professors admire,
teach, and laud the history of non-western cultures as superior to our own
culture.
As
the Blaze reported, Thomas Klingenstein commissioned a report on Bowdoin’s (a
liberal arts college) academic and non-academic curriculum. The National
Association of Scholars produced 355 pages of information describing in great
detail what the college was teaching. http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/04/08/the-stunning-355-page-mega-report-that-reveals-the-radical-curriculum-at-one-american-college-and-how-a-golf-game-gone-awry-led-to-it-all/
Short
on critical thinking skills, the college, instead of concentrating on scientists,
men of letters, philosophers and orators who contributed to western thought and
civilization, chose courses such as Queer Gardens, Beyond Pocahontas: Native
American Stereotypes, Sexual Life of Colonialism, and Modern Western
Prostitutes.
Driving
by the local high school, Gar-Field, I noticed on the huge electronic board, IB
World School. Having studied U.N. Agenda 21 extensively, my spirits sank. An
international baccalaureate world school is another arm of U.N. Agenda 21
indoctrination of our children into “global citizenship, social justice, intercultural
understanding and respect,” submission to one-world socialist government, using
American taxpayer dollars. Most parents have no idea what IB is. IB programs
are devoted to the “radical transformation of America’s classrooms.”
An
IB World School is a private or public school that has agreed to offer the IB
(International Baccalaureate) program run and coordinated by IBO, a non-profit socialist
Swiss Foundation in Geneva, Switzerland, in partnership with UNESCO of the United
Nations. As a parent, in order to discover what the secret curriculum is, one
has to be an approved IB teacher, with a password that accesses the curriculum.
This sounds very similar to the CSCOPE curriculum in Texas which is kept quite
unavailable to prying eyes and ears.
Justin Blough describes the IB program at the school
he attended – no more learning about U.S. President, good values, no American
history, patriotic songs, and plays. Teachers have to wear the light blue
colors of the United Nations. Students are indoctrinated into becoming
“citizens of the world” instead of citizens of the country they were born in,
preoccupied with “moral, ethical, social, economic, and environmental
implications of global production and consumption.”
The
Rescue Mission Planet Earth is promoted by the IB program as the student’s
version of UN Agenda 21. The first director of UNESCO, Julian Huxley, stated
that UNESCO “is to help the emergence of a single world culture, with its own
philosophy and background of ideas, and with its own broad purposes.” Agenda 21
goals were advanced around the world with the help of ICLEI (International
Council on Local Environmental Initiatives) while IB World Schools are advanced
with the help of the IBO (International Baccalaureate Organization) in
Switzerland.

According
to Debra K. Niwa, IB programs are very costly
to schools if the number of diplomas
awarded (10 on the average) are considered, and the numerous fees and costs for
teaching and non-teaching positions, student and subject fees, assessment fees,
evaluation visit fees, and expenses incurred in traveling out-of-state and
out-of-the-country for training purposes, are taken into account. The average
training cost per staff is $8,000. These are taxpayer money that cannot be
spent on regular education, books, athletics, and other regular school
activities. We should teach American values, reading, writing, science, and mathematics.
http://watchdogwire.com/florida/2013/02/26/florida-has-the-most-schools-offering-the-international-baccalaureate-but-is-it-worth-it/
There
are three levels of IB program: the pre-university two year diploma (DP), the
middle years program (MYP), and the primary years program (PYP). When the IB World
School program is adopted in a local school, the taxpayers have no idea because
they are not asked for approval. The public does not know that these IB schools
cost millions of dollars. The Swiss IBO (International Baccalaureate
Organization) is making huge profits at American taxpayer expense while it pays
no taxes. The non-profit IBO is operating in 48 states, including D.C., and plans
to have 10,000 schools and 2.5 million students by 2020. There are over 2,000
IB World Schools in the U.S. and 74 in Virginia. http://www.channelingreality.com/Niwa/IB_unraveled_040610.htm
Where
does the funding come from for the IB World Schools? After grants expire, the
annual cost is paid by state and local taxpayers. Frequently, local and state
taxes must be raised in order to cover the cost.
If
a public school applies and qualifies for an IB World School, Title I funds for
low income populations are tapped and other federal grants such as:
- The Magnet
Schools Assistance Program
- AP Test Fee Program
- GEAR UP
- Advanced Placement Incentive
Program
- Smaller Learning Communities
Program
- Academic Competitiveness Grants
According
to Debra K. Niwa, IB’s “education purpose, content, and teaching methods, when
the veneer about ‘rigor,’ ‘international mindedness’ and ‘quality education for
a better world’ is removed, the program represents non-academic goals that support
United Nations’ Agenda 21 sustainable development.”
Since
1970, IBO (International Baccalaureate Organization) has been an official NGO
(non-governmental organization) of the United Nations Educational, Scientific,
and Cultural Organization (UNESCO).
The
founder of IB, Therese Maurette, describes her educational philosophy that runs
against our Founding Fathers’ ideas of what American education should be. Maurette
believes bilingualism to be imperative because “It is important psychologically
to be willing to subordinate one’s national superiority by speaking to the
other person, however imperfectly, in their mother tongue.” The concept of “nationality” must be minimized
in order to encourage students to develop a picture of the whole world. “History should not be taught until well into adolescence
because, for the younger student, it inevitably consists of a series of stories
and myths glorifying violence and misrepresenting events by giving them a
nationalistic bias.” http://pjmedia.com/tatler/2012/05/24/school-stops-teaching-basic-facts-goes-internationalist/
To
shape students into pawns of international change, IB programs use “pedagogical
methods that are intended to affect the fundamental transformation of America’s
classrooms.” Schools that adopt the IB program must also adopt the
international moral and ethical values. Whose values are these? They are the
diverse values of different cultures as contained in the Universal Declaration
of Human Rights, adopted and proclaimed by the General Assembly of the United
Nations in 1948. They are not our American values, they are values that
encourage social change in which “the
rights of individuals are linked to those of the collectives:”
• Awareness of human rights combined
with a sense of social responsibilities;
• Value of social equity and democratic
participation;
• Understanding and tolerance of
cultural differences and pluralism;
• A caring, co-operative and
enterprising spirit;
• Creativity;
• Sensitivity to gender equality;
• Open-mindedness to change;
• Obligation to environment protection
and sustainable development.
These
“Desirable universal values” of United Nations education have made their way in
the main stream American education, they were found in a list given to
educators in North Carolina at an in-service workshop: (source Debra K. Niwa)
-
There
is no right or wrong, only conditioned responses.
-
The
collective good is more important than the individual.
-
Consensus
is more important than principle.
-
Flexibility
is more important than accomplishment.
-
Nothing
is permanent except change.
-
All
ethics are situational; there are no moral absolutes.
-
There
are no perpetrators, only victims. (author Beverly Eakman, 2002)
Niwa
quotes Alexandre Cretzianu’s 1956 book, “Captive Rumania – a Decade of Soviet
Rule,” in which he explains that the western values of “liberty, democracy, law, right, security” are just lip service because
under a communist dictatorship, “laws set forth obligations for the citizen,”
but there are no restraints on the actions of the state.
Harold
G. Shane wrote in 1976 in the Phi Delta Kappan, “As
young people mature we must help them develop …a service
ethic which is geared toward the real world…the global servant concept in
which we will educate our young for planetary
service and eventually for some form of world citizenship … implicit within the ‘global servant’ concept are the moral insights” . . . that will
help us live with the regulated freedom
we must eventually impose upon ourselves.” (Debra K. Niwa, July 2009)
“Young
people need to feel first of all global citizens, second national citizens and
third local citizens. Among my generation, it is the other way round. Change
will be difficult, but schools are already thinking about curriculum changes.”
(“IB is showing the way,” IB World, May 2008)
Volunteering
is not left up to churches and individuals who are charitable by nature, the IB
program “requires community, action, service.” National service and compulsory
community service are required under collectivism and authoritarianism. I know
because we used to be forced into monthly “volunteerism” under communist party
dictatorship: plant flowers, trees, shrubs, pick up garbage, mow grass, plant
the crops, and harvest the crops in the fall. We had no choice and we were not
paid for our hard work, fed or given water. We were taken out of school as
slaves to the collective.
In
a world culture of peace, “dialectical thinking” is a required component of IB.
Debra K. Niwa wrote, “Dialectical thinking is reminiscent of what George Orwell
described in his novel 1984: Doublethink means the power of holding two
contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously; and accepting both of
them.”
Social
Justice is a core part of the International Baccalaureate (IB). UN Agenda 21
Sustainable Development is re-engineering human life by using social
equity/social justice, a new economic system called public-private
partnerships, and environmental justice by “devaluing man to the level of
animals and plants.” (Michael Shaw)
Shaw
continues, “The modern war on liberty fosters confusion in our schools
regarding the nature of what is a moral government. It uses divide and conquer tactics by separating
people into groups under the principle of social justice. It creates
dependency via an emerging global corporate socialism based on public-private
partnerships.”
American schools use multiculturalism, diversity, ethnic studies, and intercultural proficiency/competency to promote social justice. Social justice is taught under the rubric of critical pedagogy. Critical pedagogy is the political arm of liberation theology and cultural Marxism/political correctness. The ultimate goal is to bring about social transformation at the collective level through indoctrination of our students. (Bill Ayers, Dec. 15, 2009)
One blogger, mdefarge, described the
goals of the IB World Schools quite succinctly. “…what ICLEI is to the environment (better stated, "in
the name of" the environment), IB is to education - elitist global dogma
executed at the local level through schools: American education brought to you
by the New World Order. Talk about a propaganda coup!” http://www.dailypaul.com/237926/international-baccalaureate-new-world-order-and-american-education
Cathy Tyler gave a few examples of “what IB
educated children say (From Why International Baccalaureate IB is Un-A by
Samuel Adams 1722 (YouTube):- I
would make people ride their bikes or walk, no cars.
- I
would eliminate factories because they pollute the air.
- I
would stop loggers from cutting down trees.
- I
would save all the animals in the world.” http://www.canadafreepress.com/index.php/article/40204
IB World Schools indoctrinate our
children into a collectivist mindset, the hallmark of a socialist economy and a
government ruled by the Communist Party, under the guise of environmental and
social justice. We should not allow IB to downplay our nationality and make
American students feel ashamed of our history. There is no shame in being an
exceptional nation, there is pride and accomplishment that benefitted the
entire globe and still does.
IB World Schools endorse the UN
Earth Charter which contradicts our Constitution as well. Earth Charter
promotes redistribution of wealth, same sex marriage, pantheism, and military
disarmament. These are not the values American children should learn in our
nation founded on Judeo-Christian values, personal responsibility, a strong work
ethic, and equal opportunity to succeed, not equal outcomes.
