Watch out for it — already a fixture in leading schools of art education –before it becomes the norm in K-12 classes throughout the land, thus vastly politicizing the arts by making anti-capitalist, race/gender/class-obsessed (ne0-Marxist) “art activists” of our young.

So warns art critic Michelle Marder Kamhi, with the worthy view in mind of galvanizing parents against  proposed provisions in the Elementary and Secondary Education Act, whose Congressional reauthorization is pending. These provisions would, in line with Paulo Freire’s dictum that all education is political, mandate social-justice art.

“Art”? Such as the pro-illegal immigration creation “Brinco,” or “jump” in Spanish, which would teach students to construct sneakers (jammed with compass, map, etc.) for people  attempting illegaly to cross our borders.

Americans to the barricades, in the defense of true art education!
