Mpls School Shooting, Ten Commandments in TX Schools, and the Fallout from Mahmoud Begins

from All of the Above Podcast · host All of the Above

This Week: Here we are again. Another tragic school shooting, and the tone deaf, empty gestures of thoughts and prayers is all we’re left with from those in power. We can, and most, do better. Meanwhile, a federal judge in TX stops an obvious 1st Amendment violation which would require the 10 commandments be posted in all school classrooms (see decision). But the state attorney general instructs all schools outside of that district to proceed anyways. Here in SoCal, Beverly Hills decides to display Israeli flags - in the midst of their genocide against the palestinian people - during Jewish American Heritage month. But just two days later the superintendent rescinds the policy citing safety concerns. So progress… I guess?  And, as the 25-26 school year gets underway, the fallout from the Mahmoud v. Taylor decision allowing families to opt out of LGBTQ+ content in schools is just being felt. With a total lack of guidance from the Court on how to practically implement the decision, schools face a chaotic and uncertain future, along with a bigoted chilling effect that threatens to erase LGBTQ people from the curriculum. Manuel and Jeff discuss! MAXIMUM WOKENESS ALERT -- get your All of the Above swag, including your own “Teach the Truth” shirt!
