Woke council ‘indoctrinating’ schoolkids by teaching them they’re not ‘racially innocent’
A WOKE council has sparked fury by “indoctrinating” schoolchildren with anti-racism classes.
Pupils as young as seven will be “educated” about white privilege.
Kids are to be taught that they are not “racially innocent” because they view white as top of the hierarchy.
Brighton and Hove’s Green-controlled city council is introducing widely-disputed critical race theory into its school curriculum as part of diversity training for teachers over the next five years.
The council says all teachers need the training to enable them to give “specific racial literacy-focused lessons” for pupils.
Some 300 have already taken the hour-long session which covers the slave trade history and racism in society, reports
One PowerPoint slide tells teachers: “Between the ages of three and five, children learn to attach value to skin colour; white at the top of the hierarchy and black at the bottom.”
But an online petition against the move has been signed by 4,000 mums, dads and carers.

One blasted: “As a mum with mixed heritage, I am very disturbed.
"This new approach urges kids to judge their friends on the basis of skin colour.”
Conservative MP Sir John Hayes said: “This echoes the kind of indoctrination used by Maoists and Marxists.”
The council said: “The training is for staff, not pupils and students. It isn’t mandatory.
"Each school determines its own approach to tackling racism.”
