Once again, the New York Department of Education is in the word-banning
business and is telling schools to ban dozens of words from use in the class
room and on tests. And why are they banning the words? Because they might
make kids “feel” bad. But, worse, some of the banned words would actually
prevent learning!
One of the banned words, for instance is “slavery.” OK, so how do we
discuss all of American history before the close of the Civil War if we are
not allowed to use the word “slavery” in front of school kids? Just as bad
, the words “war” and “religion” are also banned. There goes the rest of
human history.
But maybe even worse, the DOE has banned the word “terrorism.” So, how do
we teach what happened on 9/11?… Ah, I know, we tell kids that George Bush
did it and America is evil to those poor, poor Muslims, that’s how.
NY Schools Chancellor Dennis Walcott said the Dept. of Ed isn’t “an
outlier” and not being PC in the banning of words and that schools all
across America do it (as if that makes it right).
“So we’re not an outlier in being politically correct. This is just making
sure that test makers are sensitive in the development of their tests,”
Walcott said to the media in New York City.
A glance at the list below makes a liar of Mr. Walcott.
Here is a complete list of the banned words courtesy of CBS New York:

发帖数: 2568 | 3 是不是活外包给中宣部了？ 给有些词贴上负能量太足也就算了。 可“Birthday
celebrations”， “Celebrities”，应该算正能量吧。 搞笑的是“Computers in
the home”，“Homes with swimming pools”都上榜。 只能说一帮猪脑在糟蹋下一代
。 孩子以后缺乏完全的人格。 起码上买卖提看本大叔的贴子会吃不消。
