Parents Fight Back: Standing Against State-Driven Indoctrination

This episode of CURE America with Star Parker is brought back to you to highlight the critical importance of school choice, emphasizing that parents should have the freedom to choose the school that aligns with their values. After all, it's their children, not the government's children. Is it time for parents to get their children out of government-run schools that indoctrinate our kids? This is the pressing issue we discussed in this week's episode. Currently, ninety percent of the nation's K-12 students attend public schools. As parents increasingly recognize the harmful influences in public schools—such as the sexualization of children, promotion of fake Critical Race Theory, socialist indoctrination, and erosion of parental rights—a strong movement is emerging. These parents are not just pushing back against the radical agenda in the classroom but are also demanding policy changes that ensure funding follows their children to schools that align with their values.   The success of charter schools and private schools stems from the same principle that drives the success of private universities—students choose them because they are not forced into them by the zip code that would otherwise define their destiny. Whether it's Critical Race Theory, transgenderism and sex education, or other educational approaches that some parents believe contradict their values on family and life, the union-controlled education system is facing significant challenges.   In this episode, we hear from our special guest, Corey DeAngelis of the American Federation for Children, along with our panelists Jonathan Alexandre of Liberty Counsel Action, Terry Jeffrey of CNSNews.com, and Andrew Handel of the American Legislative Exchange Council. They discuss the alternatives to public schools and highlight the growing trend toward Education Savings Accounts, with four states having already passed such measures this year and many more considering options to fund students, not systems.
