| RADICAL
MARXISM RAISING ITS HEAD
Thursday, February 12, 2004
According to George Archibald, a conservative writer for the Washington
Times, the critics of the International Baccalaureate (IB) program
at Reston, Virginia’s Langston Hughes Middle School and South
Lake High School have declared the program to promote cultural egalitarianism,
pacifism and anti-western bias.
“Administrators do not tell you that the current IB program
for ages three through 12 promotes socialism, disarmament, radical
environmentalism, and moral relativism, while attempting to undermine
Christian religious values and national sovereignty”, said
Jeanne Geiger, mother, and writer in a local Reston, Virginia newspaper.
Mrs. Geiger opposed her children being enrolled in International
Baccalaureate classes because “the sociological ‘outcomes’
follow political correct thought and behavior assessments.”
It seems the IB coordinator at the Middle School believes in teaching
children to “think globally.” Many colleges and selective
institutions award credit for high-level IB exam scores.
Some schools will not award IB credit unless the students, and
I am referring to high school students, have taken 6 required IB
courses, written a 4,000-word essay like a college thesis and have
150 hours of extra curricular activities or community service. It
seems the best and brightest of students are being indoctrinated
into an anti-western philosophy!
I was sent materials recently on a student who left a communist
country, where Marxism was forced on all students, who enrolled
in San Francisco State University only to find herself in the middle
of a “socialist brain-washing machine.”
Then, I read with disbelief materials on Ohio’s Oberlin College
of radical political and sexual indoctrination by the faculty, and
administration. Students on this campus attended an annual college-sponsored
administration-approved “Safe Sex Night,” an orgy held
on campus. The Student Newspaper described it as including sexually
explicit videos played on T.V. screens with students sitting naked
or semi-naked.
There is a radical leftist philosophy being pushed on college campuses.
Oberlin College offers extreme indoctrination of Marxist activism
and politically correct behavior assessments.
We must beware of the anti-western bias. It’s in our educational
system and showing up in the far left Democrat Presidential campaigns.
Stand firm
