Oregon State Senator Lew Frederick, at his Saturday chat, called "...parental choice...a big issue." Frederick stated he has "...a visceral response...", he experiences "parental choice as a "...dog whistle...".
Lew said about the "dog whistle", "I relate to it that way until someone tells me they really want to work to make all kids get the best education...what I'm hearing...is my kid has to get the best education not all kids."
Lew Frederick is a former board member of the Oregon Board of State Education. Lew was a reporter at KGW for seventeen years, he's been in Salem for thirteen years.
Oregon has the worst public schools in the nation, but Lew wants to be sure Oregon's Black American parents can't have any other choice? How much more tax money does he plan to drop down the Rabbit Hole? And is it really for the kids? Or might it be for the Teacher Unions who fund the DNC?
Lew had an extremely accomplished father, Lafayette Frederick Ph.D. Lew's grandfather was a sharecropper, "...a teacher/tenant farmer" father. That father taught Lew's father well. Dr. Frederick earned one of his degrees at WSU in Pullman, Washington State in a community Lew's father characterized as "color-blind". This in 1950.

Nothing was found in searching Lew Frederick's father's history that Lafayette Frederick ever saw himself as a victim. Dr. Frederick lived to age 95.
How did Lew come to see himself as a victim? Lew didn't have a father like, Troy, in Fences, a father who didn't want his son to do better than he did. Lafayette's father was a sharecropper, a teacher/tenant farmer who was open for his son to be learned and accomplished. The fields and woods sparked Lafayette's curiosity and imagination, Lafayette's father didn't hold him back.
Lew grew up in the same neighborhood as Martin Luther King, Jr, Lew played with the King children.
King taught the content of one's character not the color of one's skin is what counts. Dr. King got pulled into the Montgomery bus boycott in 1955.
Black Americans have a rich history, a brave history, an accomplished history going back to the beginning of America, they also formed the history of America following in the footsteps of what the Founding Fathers cobbled together, a fight from the start that slavery must end. Over 500 men of European heritage were murdered for fighting to end slavery.
Why hasn't the mainstream media reported on that history? Media relentlessly, unceasingly tells Black Americans they are victims. The media is a piece of crap. Doesn't matter if it's Tim Pool of the Right Wing type or Piers Morgan of the British type or Andrew Cuomo of the Italian type, all ignorant of Black American history and just beat the drum of victimhood.
Senator Frederick told the story of himself integrating a school in Baton Rouge, Louisiana back in the 1960s.
The first Black American to take the
racist Portland Public School system to court was William Brown, and he
successfully caused the district to be integrated in 1872. Yes, in 1872.
The public school system from it's beginning in 1854 was created by a Democratic Congress specifically planned to institute racism into that institution. No one seems to want to talk about that. Democrats started the KKK. Why is Senator Frederick all in with the Democrat Party? Why does Lew not know the history of the NEA (National Education Association)? Many inquiring minded Oregonians want to know.
The Bible, Shakespeare, Cervantes were all accurate about "suffering". Cervantes was a slave. Suffering appears to be in all of mankind's DNA. The first Black American to take the racist Portland Public School system to court was William Brown, and he successfully caused the district to be integrated in 1872.
There continues, yes, to be racism and it is in the very fabric of the Portland Public School (PPS) System. It's not the students who are racist. It is the superintendent, his administrative staff, principals and teachers that drive racism in PPS and some other public school districts. Racism was built into the foundation of that system in 1854. 1954 Brown vs the Board of Education was NOT a lawsuit against private schools, it was a lawsuit against the public schools.
School Choice is on the docket come January 2023. The senator was accurate when he said at his Saturday morning chat about parents wanting school choice, "...they know how to be visible, know how to go to school boards...".
The unintended consequence of Kate Brown's shutdown included showing parents the public school system was a piece of crap. Parents showing up to give commentary on their witnessing were treated by school boards as though parents were pieces of crap. Did the senator not pay attention as to how school board members treated parents?
America in the 1700s was highly literate. Black freedmen were highly literate. The high literacy rate caused the American Revolution. On most mantles in the colonies then in America were the Bible and the works of Shakespeare. People who read the Bible and Shakespeare were highly literate.
This 193 year old compulsory government public school system was created with the intent to dumb down Americans especially Black Americans and the Irish. The Democrats were afraid of what would happen when all the Black slaves became free and they (many Englishmen were Democrats) didn't like the Irish.
Now Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Senator Frederick dragged his baggage from his youth to demean the parents of Oregon who want school choice? He will assume any parent who wants to do the best for their children is racist? Is that the spirit he intends to bring into the legislature in January?
