Summary

WATCH PragerU’s New Short Documentary “The Biggest Bully in School”: https://www.prageru.com/video/the-biggest-bully-in-school-why-public-education-is-failing-in-america Kali Fontanilla joins me to react to a video of a lecturer at UC San Diego who wants to “decolonize” the classroom by giving every student an A grade. We also discuss why public education is failing in America and what parents and concerned citizens can do to fight back. Kali Fontanilla is a former high school teacher and founder of Exodus Institute. She quit her job and moved to Florida after publicly denouncing the “leftist indoctrination” of students in California classrooms through ethnic studies programs. She taught in the state of California for about 15 years but left her teaching position and moved out of state after speaking out against critical race theory and Black Lives Matter.
