National Campaign for Justice
Trump’s Department of Education has declared war on truth in our schools. This week, Secretary Linda McMahon announced that $137 million originally meant to support minority students and teacher training will instead bankroll “civics” content crafted by Trump’s MAGA allies like PragerU, Hillsdale College, and Turning Point USA.
This isn’t civics education, it’s authoritarian propaganda. They want our children taught that slavery was an afterthought, that systemic racism doesn’t exist, and that America’s founding was flawless. They want to ban discussion of gender identity and silence any student activism by prohibiting course credit for civic engagement.
This is the 1776 Commission all over again, a whitewashed fantasy that real historians called racist garbage. Only this time, Trump’s regime is pouring taxpayer money into spreading it nationwide. Their goal is simple: strip our schools of critical thought and replace it with loyalty pledges to Trump’s movement.
We can’t let Trump’s MAGA “civics” rewrite history and brainwash a generation. State leaders must reject this whitewashing before it takes root in classrooms.
