[divider][/divider]A public school district in Minnesota is taking a radical social justice approach to the education of their youngest children.
Young students in the Edina School District in Edina, Minnesota, will be introduced to the concept of “white privilege” as early as kindergarten, according to a new report from theWeekly Standard. The report details some of the unusual practices of the district.
