The blog  continues to get a lot of commentary, questions and feedback on a school district survey known as the Panorama Education Survey on Race and Identity.

This is a controversial item--the organization was co-founded by U.S. AG Merrick Garland’s Son-In-Law. It also raised $76M from investors.  There is much available online via search engines and you should do our own due diligence; click here for an article from Forbes

It has been reported that some parents opted their children out of taking the survey.

As always, anyone with questions and more should address them with school officials directly.  Going to the source is the best way to obtain up to date information.  Good luck to the parents.

A reader was trying to find an article on "HATE HAS NO HOME HERE" signs---it is probably this one:

NY POST--WHY NO HATE SIGNS ARE ACTUALLY PRETTY HATEFUL...someone came up with the label “virtue signaling” to describe the psychological impulse behind these signs. The idea is that people who put them up want to tell you how noble they are. But that doesn’t sound right. Virtue-signalers aren’t in any way in doubt about their own virtue. What they really want to do is signal how depraved others are.  It’s about vice signaling, not virtue signaling.  MORE HERE.
