(INDEPENDENT CHRONICLE) – Jennifer Berkshire, author and college professor, made waves this week after opposing parental rights in public education, particularly as it relates to school choice.
“*Parents’ rights* is a centerpiece of a GOP that is increasingly hostile to public education AND democracy,” she stated. “This kind of thinking – that kids should only be taught what their parents want them to learn – is absolutely anathema to a democracy. And that’s exactly the point,” she declared.
Many people responded to Berkshire’s claim, and left some feeling as though her position is becoming normalized on the political left.
