Teaching Critical Race Theory Over Fundamentals and Transgender Targeting of Children

On June 30, 2022, Kim Monson welcomed education activists Kane, founder of Task Force Freedom, and Erin Lee, a mother whose 11-year-old daughter was targeted by transgender ideology in a Northern Colorado school, to expose the radical agenda infiltrating government-run schools across the country.

Critical Race Theory and the Destruction of Classical Education

Start listening at 39:00 – Hour 1

Kane, founder of Task Force Freedom, sounds the alarm on how government schools have abandoned the fundamentals of reading, writing, and arithmetic in favor of Marxist indoctrination. Drawing from his experience as a proud American Negro, Kane challenges the divisive narratives pushed by critical race theory, arguing that the ideology teaches white children they are racist oppressors while telling black children they are helpless victims.

Kane traces the decline of American education to the creation of the Department of Education and the stranglehold of teachers’ unions. He points to Thomas Sowell’s decades of warnings about government schools and urges parents to remove their children from these institutions. The solution, Kane argues, lies in homeschooling, private schools, and charter schools that return to classical liberal education.

“If white-only bathrooms were racist and bigoted back in the day, then what are black-only words today? See, if my white counterparts and my Caucasian brothers and sisters can’t exercise their First Amendment right to say any word they desire, then are we truly free?”

Transgender Ideology Targeting Children in Schools

Start listening at 70:00 – Hour 2

Erin Lee recounts the horrifying experience of discovering her 11-year-old daughter had been targeted by transgender activists at her Northern Colorado school. The child’s trusted art teacher invited her to what was supposedly an after-school art club, but was actually a Gender and Sexuality Alliance meeting featuring an outside presenter with no qualifications to discuss such topics with children.

The presenter told children that discomfort with their bodies meant they were transgender, distributed flags and labels, and instructed them to keep the meeting secret from parents. Lee reveals that the school’s health staff has been instructed not to inform parents if children are cutting or suicidal, and that the district has hired LGBTQ coordinators whose job includes secretly transitioning children’s gender identities without parental knowledge.

Lee’s daughter spiraled into mental health crisis following the incident, ultimately becoming suicidal. The family has since placed her in a private Christian school where she is thriving. Lee urges parents to wake up, get involved, and consider removing their children from government schools that prioritize ideology over education and parental rights.

“This kind of ideology caused a mental decline. It could have caused us to lose our daughter’s life because of the mental anguish and the confusion that she was spiraled into, and we were so ill-equipped to help her.”
