tv Tucker Carlson Tonight FOX News June 25, 2020 5:00pm-6:01pm PDT
5:00 pm
june 25th, 2020. already june 25th. going to be posted with my conversation with the police officers, great conversation with them. i hope you will tune in for that. good night, everybody. thank you for being here. we will see you back here tomorrow. >> tucker: good evening and welcome to "tucker carlson tonight." not many people are saying it out loud on the right, but the fact is that president trump could well lose this election. in fact, and less fundamental facts change soon, it could be tough for him to be reelected. the president does lose, that means just a few months from now, joe biden would become the president. the united states government would fall into the control of the radicals who controlled joe biden and they will remake the country. now, we are fully aware that virtually nobody watching the show tonight wants to hear that, but it's true, and key people around the president know that it's true. they've seen the numbers, and they are concerned.
5:01 pm
at some point in the future, historians will marvel at the fact that the president lost ground during a pandemic and then during mass riots. both crises should have highlighted this. alone among national leaders, donald trump warned americans for decades about china and the perils of globalization. everything about the wuhan coronavirus proved donald trump right. china really is our main global adversary pair the chinese government really does want to take over the world. meanwhile, the fact that we sent our manufacturing base of a brod really weakened us. no longer makes antibiotics, maybe we are not as powerful as we think. all of that is very obvious now after the pandemic, but donald trump called it. you think voters would reward him for that. you the riots would have creased their support for him. an awful lot of people voted for donald trump precisely to avoid a moment we are now in. none of this arrive suddenly, we saw it coming.
5:02 pm
such cohesion in america has been eroding for decades. made them nervous, should make them nervous. donald trump seems like insurance against the consequences of that. the court appeal of trump was of things ever started to fall apart, he would defend you. yes, he was loud and crude. most bodyguards are. only a man like donald trump was tough enough to fight the creeping authoritarianism of the education cartel in corporate america. trump got elected, you could say what you really believe, the basic promise of america could be restored. he could live with dignity. under donald trump, you wouldn't be forced to mount the lyrics to some repulsive orthodoxy you hate. you could declare out loud that all lives matter because all lives do matter. god made us all, and if you can't say that, what's the point of living here? donald trump never quite articulated any of this in a precise way. he is not an intellectual or an ideologue but it's obvious he felt strongly. his gut level instincts were on
5:03 pm
the side of order and tradition and stability, and they still are. and yet, when widespread looting and disorder arrived, the president did not act as decisively as many had hoped. he said little, he did last. some voters felt undefended. some turned against him. why did this happen? there are many reasons. trump was exhausted after three years of defending himself against russia gate, the most elaborate and effective hoax in american history and his staff did not much to help. in some of them were actively disloyal and most were confused. they definitely were not prepared for chinese viruses are burning cities, but the administration's main problems were conceptual. few seem to understand what was really happening. their first mistake was forgetting the primary rule of washington. in an election year, everything that happens is about the election. they were no exceptions to that rule. washington is a political city run by politicians. the chinese navy sailed up the potomac in the fall of an
5:04 pm
election year, the first thing most people in d.c. would wonder is how was i going to affect turnout? that's who they are. it's how they think. so only the naive are surprised when democratic governors immediately use the coronavirus quarantines to punish people who didn't vote for them. in christian churches and small businesses were locked down, we chops an abortion clinic stayed open. most trump voters seem not to notice. they accepted the restrictions without question. this was a health crisis and they wanted to do the right thing, so they obeyed. they cowered in their homes, and that's exactly were democratic leaders wanted them. cut off from one another, atomized, and alone. the few conservatives who try to organize resistance to the lockdowns were indicted or threatened with arrest. none of this had anything to do with public health, of course. was electoral politics and an especially brutal form of it. republican leaders meanwhile were remarkably slow to catch on to what was happening. some of them aren't very bright but most just couldn't imagine anyone acting with that level of
5:05 pm
cynicism and ruthlessness. their good faith made them vulnerable to their opponent's lies. were used. in the days after george floyd died, the same trends accelerated dramatically. all happened so fast that it seems like chaos at the time, but it wasn't chaos. it was designed just beneath the surface. consider the targets of the mob chose. law enforcement, obviously, but not all law enforcement. local police departments must be eliminated, they said, but the fbi is just fine and that was telling. then they claimed that capitalism was the enemy, but only certain kinds of capitalism. the mob burned independent businesses to the ground by the score and didn't say a word about those businesses digital competitors, google, apple, and amazon. all of those companies were finding the destruction. then the mob told us that traditional christianity was racist. they desecrated churches in the name of avenging slavery yet antifa did not touch a single
5:06 pm
mosque despite the fact that historians say muhammad owned. as all this progress, democrats continue their lectures about gun control, as they always do. but they ignore the rifles in the hands of their own supporters in downtown seattle. the real threat, they told us, was rural americans with their ar-15s. that or get the fbi on that, arrest more farmers. in other words, what looked like protest were highly effective attacks on donald trump's voters, his power base. few in washington clearly appreciated this at least on the right. they had, they would've told the country what was really happening. this is not about george floyd, not about police brutality. is a power grab by a violent extremist but they didn't understand that. so weeks into the rioting, the social media accounts at the white house were still producing ham-handed posts about juneteenth. no one was convinced by them, no one was reassured. instead, many voters are becoming increasingly agitated by the lawlessness they saw all
5:07 pm
around them. who is going to protect us from this, they wondered. the social media accounts did nothing to answer that question. we want to play for you to pieces of tape that help illustrate what life is like for many americans right now. neither one of these shows graphic violence. we can find tape that does show it. but what we are going to play instead for you is in some ways more insidious than assault. what you will hear is neglect and neglect is itself a form of violence. the first tape is from a small town, fredericksburg virginia. a 911 call recorded earlier this month. a woman took her young daughter on aaron's downtown. as the two tried to drive home, a mob surrounded their vehicle and blocked it from moving. terrified, called 911 and here is the response she got. >> they are on my car. they are on my car right now. >> i would suggest you slowly
5:08 pm
drive through the area. >> i cannot get out of here. >> be patient, i will let the officers know, okay? >> are you serious? >> we can't do anything, ma'am. the state told us this is a sanctioned event. >> this is my car. i've got a kid here. we met we would suggest he called up city hall let them know your frustrations. >> get off the road! this is scary! they are on my car! i have a little girl in the car crying, are you kidding me? >> tucker: they are on my car, they are on my car. ma'am, comes the reply, we would suggest you call up city hall to let them know about your frustrations. those are verbatim quotes. it's hard to listen to that tape without feeling emotional. a woman and her child were terrorized by a violent mob. and then they were intentionally abandoned by the state that has promised to protect them. was the ultimate betrayal of
5:09 pm
citizenship. you should know that the mayor of fredericksburg virginia later apologized, but did not apologize to tara durrant or her young daughter. the mayor apologized to the mob. police had tried to disperse them while they were riding. "i am personally sorry. i want to apologize to those who went through this fearful experience. again, to be crystal clear, she said that the rioters i'm not to the citizens she had cruelly abandoned. all of that happened in a little town of 25,000 people. and it's happening in so many american towns right now. here's what's happening in our cities. this is a recent video york. looks like a foreign country. as he watched, notice how the police respond.
5:10 pm
the squad car just rolls on through, cops don't even slow down. they've been told not to. they don't try to enforce the law. they can't enforce the law. keep in mind decent people live in that neighborhood. decent people live in every american neighborhood. how would you feel if you lived there? you'd be very afraid. he'd feel like things were falling apart. more than anything else, you would want someone to restore order. want them to take back your neighborhood from arms children because armed children are far more threatening than even the worst rogue cop, always. in the local leaders are not doing that. they are not restoring order, they are ignoring the suffering of their people. so what is the white house doing about this? the president announced that anyone who topples a statue on federal property will face ten years in prison. that is a welcome start.
5:11 pm
what we are living through right now despite what people have told you is not a local problem. this is a national crisis. the riots are designed to produce a national result. the destruction of our system of government and the removal of donald trump. people expect a president to respond to a moment like this to fix it and they have a right to expect that. the president runs the country. the rioters were saudi nationals, it would be very clear there was nothing local about what we are watching. he would understand immediately it is terrorism. in the president would give a prime time address. within hours, the feds would be hunting these people down and arresting them. they would be in prison facing life. so the question is, why isn't the justice department responding like this? it's not clear. assembling the white house counsel's office dominated by bush partisans who are hostile to trauma. we don't know if that's true. it is true, there's an easy solution to it, just ignore their counsel. send them to the basement and
5:12 pm
have them reorganize the card catalog or read "reader's digest" from the '70s. only a fool lets them make those decisions anyway. they were, they wouldn't be lawyers. others say bureaucrats at the doj or federal prosecutors in the states are dragging their feet. the attorney general bill barr says he is overseeing 500 separate investigations into rioters. good for him. presumably one of them in washington, took place last saturday it was on live television. so far, no one has been arrested for it. would change the course of this country's future if the justice department rounded up the leaders of anti-for tomorrow along with every single person caught on camera torching a building, destroying a monument, defacing a church, and put them all in shackles and then march them in front of cameras like ms-13 and call them what they actually are, domestic terrorists. not protesters, not civil rights activist, not cnn contributors,
5:13 pm
but domestic terrorists. and that would be their new government approved title. once they are charged, it's official, in fact. they are literally as a factual matter accused terrorists, and that would change minds right away. the people destroying this country are criminals, if you are brave enough to call them that so naturally their popularity grows. everyone supports protesters. this is america. we believe in protests, but watch what happens when you start calling them what they really are. most people don't like terrorists. terrorists will never be popular even among democratic voters. so charge them for the crimes they've committed and call them what they are. right now, the opposite is happening. the terrorists are more popular than the president of the united states and not just more popular than donald trump personally, but more popular than the system he represents and administers, and it is obvious why. our system is weak. refuses to defend itself. mayors let new country sprout in the middle of their cities. our leaders act like laws are
5:14 pm
irrelevant. everyone watches this happened. it's a potentially fatal probl problem. weak institutions die, citizens develop contempt for them and then make it overthrown. the same is true for heads of state. when you refuse to fight for the system you run, you are done. spend an hour on google and see if you can find a single leader in the history of the world who stayed in power after failing to follow rebellion. you can't. the saddest part of all of this is our system is very much worth saving. administers justice more fairly than any system in the world. we want to keep that system, we have to use that system, and that means enforcing americans laws with certainty, enforcing them right now at the moment of greatest peril. we don't do it now, we never will do it. they ignore a law long enough and it becomes unenforceable. he would be shocked if you got pulled over for doing 58 and a 55-mile-an-hour zone, obviously. nt feds leaders would be shocked
5:15 pm
if they were arrested for destroying a statue of abraham lincoln. just a month ago, destroying statues was a felony. now, it's allowed. where will he be a month from now? what wil will we allow by novem? the plane as things change fast and that include social standards, they change very quickly too appear just a few weeks ago, it sounded like a crackpot idea and now it's happening. millions of americans support it. many republican officeholders haven't thought very deeply about why this is even now, you will see them grin at the latest insanity from the left. can you believe this? they've gone too far this time. there's going to be a backlash. when exactly will that backlash arrived? because the opposite seems to be happening. what seemed awful the other day is normal now. turns out that if you don't bother to explain precisely why certain ideas are bad, if you don't vigorously defend your own worldview, then you lose. bad ideas spread, they quickly
5:16 pm
congeal into conventional wisdom, and then you are done. this is especially true right now when everything in american life is up for grabs. the lockdowns shuffle the deck completely. four months ago, you'd assume you would spend the next 20 years going into an office somewhere and now you are working from your couch starting to consider moving to bozeman and why wouldn't you and while we are at it, what else should we do differently? normal people are starting to think like this. once big things start changing, they tend to change more quickly than we expect. all of this means this is precisely the time right now tonight to defend the institutions that we desperately need to keep in this country. those institutions include the nuclear family, our freedom of speech, small, independent businesses, absolute colorblindness under the law. the noble tradition of nonviolent protest. those of the things that make us proud to be americans. those are the things that make america a place worth living in.
5:17 pm
we need to defend these things with everything we have, all of us must defend them including the president. that is his hope of reelection. for the rest of us, it's our only hope as a country. for almost 150 years, a statue celebrating one of the greatest moments in american history has stowed in downtown washington. tonight, the mob has vowed to destroy it. >> the statue right here him bodies the white supremacy and the disempowerment of black people that has been forced upon us by white people. that is why we are tearing the statue down. we are going to be doing it on thursday at 7:00 p.m. we are tearing this down. emancipation, freedom under

5:23 pm
>> tucker: as we just told you, the two's signature events of this administration, the coronavirus lockdown in the civil unrest you're experiencing both unfolded within a three month period in the latter part of an election season. both of them should've helped the president. they played to his strengths. the poll numbers suggest both hurt him. what is going on? dana perino post of the weekly briefing and you can also catch her on the five each and every night joins us now. thank you so much for coming on. so i am so struck by the numbers because especially in the case of the wuhan coronavirus, it validated, proved the entire trump thesis going back 30 years. globalization won't hurt us, china is an enemy, they don't tell us the truth, be aware, there is no part of that study proven true, widen his numbers go up? >> first, i would like to say that i really appreciated your
5:24 pm
monologue there about security in particular and what's happening in cities across america. i have listened as some have suggested that this is only minor incidents is, really a big deal, i find that the really offensive and the 911 call that you played i think should focus everybody's mind. on these numbers, it is interesting of the polling on who would do a better job on the economy and on dealing with china, president trump does better than joe biden on both of those two things, but i think that dealing with china in the future is different than what people see on their own lives in terms of the coronavirus. you think back in the early part of march when the president first started doing those briefings every day, his numbers went way up. i think the other thing that's happened is that people were absolutely delighted with the economy and even democrats had
5:25 pm
begrudgingly admit that the economy was doing pretty well. talking about the coronavirus and the racial strife doesn't even begin to talk about the fact that we have 20 million people unemployed. if you don't have security, i can't do anything else. literally cannot do anything else. >> tucker: so i wonder if that factors in, and i am not singling out the president but the entire political class, if you live in washington, you might not have a tactile sense of what he does like to be stuck in a car with your 5-year-old and have people jumping on the hood screaming the f word at her. that's a deal killer for everything. nothing else matters if that happens. >> that's when you said normal people are thinking about maybe i should move to don't tell people to come here to wyoming, but do you want to leave the city, do you want to go be in a place that is managed in a different way and people might do that very quickly.
5:26 pm
but i also think in our system, you have mayors and city council for a reason. they are the front line of defense. but when it comes to reform, police reform that people are clamoring for, all of that could happen tomorrow at the local level. instead, all the ire is pushed towards president trump into the republicans for not doing enough on a pretty aggressive police reform bill that senator tim scott of south carolina put forward. so they shut all of that down. the national political movement to them is obviously much more important than solving the problems at the local level. >> tucker: such a smart point, spoken as someone who has been in washington a long time, you know it's an election year and whatever happens is about the election, very simple. thank you. good to see you. thank you. the emancipation memorial in
5:27 pm
washington, d.c., is one of our greatest because it celebrates one of our greatest moments, the deliverance of 4 million americans from human bondage. that memorial was paid for entirely by the wages of freed slaves. there was ever a story to tell your children about this country, it is that story. frederick douglass spoke of the dedication and his words are all mine. the people who may tear it down are not interested in what frederick douglass said. authorities in d.c. tell us they want the memorial removed and of course radicals don't want to wait that long until they act. so they initially vowed to destroy the monument tonight. is that still the plan? has been following this for us on the ground and grateful he has been. thank you so much. what is happening today in washington? >> so as you said, they announced two days ago that they were planning on tearing down the statue had this memorial in the park and you can imagine that the government was ready
5:28 pm
today, so they set up an offense perimeter and caution tape just outside of that. so they kind of missed the boat on trying to take that statue down. really the best time for them to try to do that was tuesday because the police were off to the side, they were right up to it, and so in between the national guard has been called up to protect not just that monument but also other monuments across the city so they are planning on according to the main speaker from tuesday on his instagram, he announced they're going to try to take it down tomorrow around 6:00. so i'm not entirely sure if it will be successful because again, the government's response to this is that they are ready and actually going to prevent them from taking down the lincoln memorial. >> tucker: let me ask you a quick question, and this is probably too literal, but i am literal. why would people who claim to oppose racism want to tear down
5:29 pm
and emancipation statue? >> as i told you tuesday, the main issue is if they a problem with how the freed is pretrade. you have abraham lincoln who was tall and the is at his feet. so they said that that is really the main issue they are and what represents. however, the symbolism behind that statue was a little bit more nuanced than that. >> tucker: is a celebration of emancipation. this is a dangerous religious cult, obviously. very irrational. great to see you tonight, thank you. our daily tally of new coronavirus cases is growing higher. should we be worried? why is it happening? many questions, marc siegel joins us to answer them next.
5:35 pm
>> tucker: new coronavirus cases in this country are the highest they have ever been, hospitalizations are up, deaths interestingly are far below where they were two months ago. so what do these numbers add up to exactly? for that and all questions like this, we turned a fox medical contributor dr. marc siegel who joins us tonight. good to se see you. >> this virus is humbling all of us, still learning about it. learning that it actually could continue to spread among our young people at the same time at the death rate is going way down across the united states, contagion rate continues to be elevated. also learning it is not seasonal because it is affecting the south and the west at a time when we thought it was going to diminish. tonight is a tale of two states. in texas and new york. and i want texas to learn from our experience in new york. today, we come to 10%.
5:36 pm
texas had over 5,000 new cases over the last 24 hours of covid-19. new york down to 500, one-tenth. so what can texas learn from us? we learned that this virus is a inflammatory response throughout the body when you get sick, all organs involved. we learned it causes blood clots, so we learned how to treat it now, treating it with blood thinners, treating it with steroids like we talked about on the show, treating it with a drug called remdesivir which you when i broke that news months ago about this antiviral drug, all of this helping people to stay alive. but texas has a problem with their hospitals tonight. their hospitals are filling too fast so texas needs to learn from our experiences in new york in dealing with hospitalized patients and how to keep them well and how to deal with young people who are breaking all the rules and who are out at bars and beaches and are not paying attention to the fact that they can put older, sicker people at
5:37 pm
risk. finally, i have a prescription for the governor of texas, for governor abbott. here is my prescription, educate your young, but watch out for your elderly, watch out for those most at risk. learn from our horrible experience here in nursing homes. 40% of the deaths in texas from covid-19 have been in nursing homes and i am hearing tonight the american association of people is saying there is not enough personal protective equipment in texas in nursing homes. not enough infection control precautions and you have heard this too in the north of texas, not enough staffing. get staffing in those nursing homes, get the equipment and those nursing homes, and get the education there as well. let's protect our elderly, governor, and let's educate our young to stop spreading this virus at bars and beaches and around the state. but again, let's also rejoice that the death count remains very low. let's keep it that way.
5:38 pm
>> tucker: a fascinating thing, not expected. thank you so much for that. >> thank you. >> tucker: shootings have surged dramatically in many of this country's largest cities. instead of promising to protect you, some corporate, promising to reimagine policing. likely to succeed because instead of protecting police from a tax on them, some senators are playing along and pretending the police are the problem that has more moral authority than law enforcement. we've got details on that next. dear freshpet,
5:43 pm
>> tucker: mike braun is a united states senator, a republican that represents the very republican state of indiana. for the last month, has been watching the destruction of our cities in our history by antifa and black lives matter. he has seen buildings burning, citizens beaten nearly to death by mobs and mike braun thinks he has an idea that will help. he has introduced legislation that will make it easier for
5:44 pm
left-wing groups to sue police officers. mike braun believes that american police officers are too protected. presumably not the ones that have been shot in the head recently. under current law, police officers benefit from something called qualified immunity. qualified immunity means that cops can't be personally sued when they accidentally violate people's rights while conducting their duties. they can be sued personally when they do with intentionally and they often are. they are not above the law and never have been. including in civil court. cops who make lesser mistakes can be disciplined, suspended, or fired and they often are. that's the system we have now and works pretty well. a civil immunity has precisely nothing to do with anything that happened in the george floyd case, just in case you're wondering. that cop is in jail. qualified immunity has worked so well because police officers more than anyone else in society must make difficult split-second decisions on the job when we do it constantly whether to arrest
5:45 pm
someone, to conduct a search, to use force against a suspect. sometimes, actions they sincerely and reasonably believe our legal are found to be unconstitutional. and sometimes very laws they enforce are struck down. that's not their fault, obviously but without qualified immunity, police could be sued for that personally. they could be bankrupted and lose their homes. it would also end law enforcement. no one would serve as a police officer, and that's why the supreme court has upheld the principle of qualified immunity for decades, often unanimously, both sides. in fact, both justices alito and ruth bader ginsburg have cited qualified immunity in their decisions. but now in order to placate the rioters who he believes have more moral authority than the police, senator mike braun of indiana would like to got qualified immunity and make it easier for cops to be sued personally for mistakes. not surprisingly, senator lindsey graham has
5:46 pm
signaled he is open to that as well. so enthusiastic about such a bad idea what we can only guess about. the many organizations he banked four will still have major influence over the republican party to its great detriment. spent millions, strongly in favor of suing the police for making mistakes. making it easier to sue people. why not start out with u.s. senators? as of right now, as of tonight, all members of congress enjoy absolute immunity from lawsuits. so how about this, how about mike braun gives up his immunity first? that seems only fair, so the next time he makes a mistake and he is a u.s. senators have a likely won't be long, it can
5:47 pm
land on him and take his house away. mike braun would make for a very good target for left-wing public interest lawyers. they would be excited. be interesting to hear his argument against giving up his own immunity, maybe he will come on the show and explain it. that's what we can wholeheartedly support. abolished police was only something you heard mattered by crazy people and people mad at their parents announce a major political they rephrased it reimagine policing. >> the folks in law enforcement that share the goals of reimagining police. >> reimagining policing in the 21st century. >> rethinking and reimagining policing. >> community efforts to reimagine policing. >> we have to reimagine what policing looks like. >> reimagining policing in our
5:48 pm
public safety. >> it would be good to reimagine law enforcement, reimagine public safety in this country. >> what can we do to reimagine public safety? >> ? >> to reimagine public safety. >> we must reimagine what public safety looks like. >> tucker: these people are such mindless robots. you must reimagine what safety looks like. you must accept being much less safe. it's already happening in minneapolis. shootings there have surged also in new york and chicago this past month. not by accident, by design. they push for it anyway. acting commissioner of customs and border protection and happy to have him on tonight. thank you so much for coming on. what are the practical effects that we know are measurable of defunding the police or reimagining policing? >> you are absolutely right, and i still have faith that the majority of the american people can call it whatever they want. we know what that means, but i've been in law enforcement for
5:49 pm
over two and a half decades. i've served in five different law enforcement organizations from the city, county, and federal level, and this is plain and simple dangerous and quite frankly, it is just dumb. is ignorant. and something you said in your monologue, we need to stand up aggressively and state why this is so wrong. i completely agree with you. and a real quick, do we need to have meaningful intellectually honest dialogue of how we can get better? of course. and let's do that. let's talk about innovative new training practices we can introduce, persistent and consistent training, talk about new accreditation programs across the profession, let's talk about hiring more law enforcement and bringing them into the department. you are honest, those are the discussions that we should be having that will actually make a difference. whatever they want to call it,
5:50 pm
it is reckless and irresponsible, and the people that need protection the most of the ones that we are going to leave behind. >> tucker: since i've been in washington so long, i know federal accreditation and training means bringing in a lot of left-wing activists that throw propaganda of public servants until they obeyed. what about the rest of us who are paying for all this garbage not telling police how to enforce the law, for real? >> i'm concerned about that too. i've seen a lot of money be thrown away at stuff for political reasons, but i still believe that if we have these dialogues, if we vigorously supported, hold our elected leaders responsible for making sure the grant funding really goes to meaningful causes, i can tell you the fbi for example hold the national academy where they bring the law enforcement officers around the entire world together in one setting to actually talk about these issues
5:51 pm
and talk about implicit bias and how we can be better, those programs are effective. >> tucker: i don't buy it. but i'm glad you do and i'm really glad you came on tonight, thank you so much. i think that stuff is so easily manipulated, it is the story of washington. is terrifying. great to see you tonight, mark morgan, thank you. so what mob isn't just ripping down your country's monuments, they have them far more sinister agenda taking public schools. your kids are about to find out when they go back in september. we will tell you what's in store next.
5:56 pm
5:57 pm
weakness. happy to have the montagnais. thank you so much for joining us. since you looked at this, how common is this. >> the kind of rhetoric that we heard is not nearly confined, last year of the education association, biggest teachers union passed a resolution basically recommending that white fragility be used in every teacher training session. they rejected a resolution to commit to excellence in teaching. in mal, public schools have been exactly cover themselves with glory during the pandemic, only about a third managed to ever instruction. they said this is because of equity, can serve any student if not all can do it but as i've been watching the past few weeks, every major organization, not just a union and professors but all the professional associations singly must move
5:58 pm
past equity to antiracism, must establish in antiracism curricula. when most parents hear this, they won't reject. racism is bad and we should reject it. but is not about trying to encourage students and teachers to treat each other equally. there is no such thing as not being racist, right? you are either racist or antiracist and given that the system teachers are being told is racist, they are racist and not only that, teachers are being told and what they are reading not only are you racist, but you are complicit in the physical and spiritual murder of black students daily unless you adopt our opinion. so when teachers hear this, they get scared. they want to do the right thing for kids. they are good people. and they look to experts the national committee chairwoman tweeted out during the riot, what are you burning? your racist curricula, racist
