Oregon schools promote 'social justice' training led by left-wing groups

Oregon education officials are promoting a left-wing “social justice” training program for high school students, prompting pushback from parent groups who want ideology out of the classroom.

Oregonians for Liberty in Education took issue with the state’s involvement in spreading the message and said it was "clearly political perspective" being fed to youths. Don’t Shoot recently ended a week-long run of virtual discussions in which it covered similar topics with students during their spring break, KOIN reported. The group’s website describes it as "a Black-led human rights nonprofit that advocates for community and accountability." It was formed in 2014 and has been organizing activists and educational workshops for years.
