It's Oakland.Why are you surprised. It's a pro woke, anti American city that thinks criminals and scammers have more rights than decent working people.
No, some are getting permission, on an accelerated basis, to move to another county. Others are going to Jewish Day Schools that routinely provide financial support if needed. Jewish Day schools are known for strong academics in addition to a Jewish education.
Criticism is NOT antisemitism. As an indigenous woman, my parents made sure we were exposed to the world, so we could handle life and remain true to OUR values immersed in a society openly hostile to them at every turn. Thin skinned & prickly lead to weakness & conflict & war. And when one abandons one's core values, no war or amount of genocide will be any kind of "win." Tikkun olam.🕊️🕊️🕊️
OP: yeah.. agreed. I started this video really worried & anxious about what horrible thing had happened that caused these parents to transfer their kids out. I was dumbstruck to discover it was that OUSD had called for… a ceasefire…? *Peace??* Um…ok. 😐
Oakland, CA is a dump, plain and simple, I don’t know why folks seriously consider living there. I’ve been a Bay Area Resident since 2005 and have seen just how terrible and disgusting Oakland has gotten. Good luck Oakland! 🤢🤮
@RacerX1971: During the jim crow era, when and at what age do you feel would have been appropriate for black kids to learn about things that they were already being exposed to in real life? I know that most white students never learned about it in school because they were not the ones being targeted by it. Neutrality is easy when it concerns other people or abstract conflicts in other parts of the world. That is not always the case.
@@dpeasehead Ideally, Black kids should always have learned about it in school. You and I agree on that. But the reality is schools have to represent a consensus of parents' values. They simply cannot impose a minority viewpoint on children in opposition to parental consensus. If they try, that's asking for trouble.
Disapproval of Israel's bombing campaign and asking for a ceasefire are not antisemitic actions. Israel is a country. Don't confuse countries with ethnic groups or religions. Disapproving of the actions of Hamas is not anti-muslim or anti-Palestinian.
This is sickening, the fact that these kids need to change schools because of Hamas terrorist supporters in America goes against everything this country stands for
@@suicydekyng8612 Hamas executed civilians in cold blood and filmed it proudly. No ifs ands or butts. No DEFLECTING. Just acknowledge it. Free Palestine is a dead movement that only conformists who cant leave corporate media believe.
If public schools are promoting UNRWA propaganda, than your kid loses out- no matter what your ethnic background. "Harassment is unacceptable " is not CLEAR when the lessons are bigotry and bias. GET A CLUE OAKLAND- GET YOUR AMERICAN DIVERSITY AND HUMAN INCLUSION REALITY CHECK- BEFORE YOUR CURRICULUM TEACHES WHERE TO LEAVE YOUR EDUCATIONAL CAREERS- IN HISTORY
I watched this video ready to be furious at OUSD for not keeping their kids safe, but ended up a bit confused why these parents think calling for ceasefire is anti semitism and means their kids are not safe….WOW how entitled and cocooned up are they?
It's a spiral. Parents who want their children to have an education that is rigorous and apolitical, one that will prepare their children for higher education, will take their children out of OUSD. What's left is the echo chamber of left-wing politics and lower standards, perpetuating an ill-informed, undisciplined citizenry in Oakland.
Its an elementary school, not Harvard. There is zero reason for a teacher to bring their political views, especially ones that call for the genocide of jews, into a room full of literal children. They should be fired but they probably can't bc they won't be able to replace them at this point.
Who is supplying those anti-semitic children's books.? There are Arab nation foundations that fund this in our schools. It goes from grade school through the universities. In NYC a grade school was using a map of the Middle East that deleted Israel. The materials come from a grant from the Qatar Foundation.

When I first heard this, I thought it was weird. I don't understand why the teacher's union said this. I don't understand why anyone cares what religion and culture people are. Oakland is a city with a large Jewish population and some of the best activities. I'm not Jewish but this sounds just weird to me. Schools should be teaching love, unity and problem solving, I don't understand why what people in Israel are doing is affecting people in the USA causing issues when it has nothing to do with them. All children should be accepted at every school in the district without issue. I don't understand why someone would send their child to an Oakland public school in some areas yet alone live in Oakland with the crime issues and lack of services. Oakland might be affordable to buy but I rather rent in a nice safe area with good schools. The whole thing just sounds crazy if you dislike someone have a good reason if you dislike a whole group of people, you don't know it's creepy. Dislike people for who they are and how they treat you. I don't understand why they are even talking to kids about the war over there. This is all just so sad.
I basically just said the same thing.. when I was growing up during the Vietnam war, it was NEVER mentioned in school... Back then, we didn't have to worry about Communists infiltrating our very fabric... Although there was a war going on, kids had it pretty damn good in that time period.
Think its unfortunate situation, People and organizations have a right to have feelings and express them about the terrible things going on in Gaza.. and it IS terrible. But many people, right here in Cali, are already twisting it into an-semitic argument. (not necessarily the teachers of course) Their fear is sadly justified.
The authorized curriculum is provided to educate and support all children in the community. When they bring unauthorized “teaching” materials and lesson plans into the classroom, in an attempt to indoctrinate students in support of their own, independently expressed, opinions about world affairs, yes. It is a problem.
🥱I do not support any bullying behavior. Where is the wrong treatment here? She has to tell you she is Jewish who would know about her religion? People have a right to protest and say their opinion. I feel sorry for the Palestinian people living in apartheid and through a genocide.
Schools should be far far away from politics.this books are disgusting. Schools district should not any political statements. It looks like any form of racism is forbidden except antisemitism
Seems like OUSD spent all their resources in international politics and none on their actual duty- educating elementary school kids… Hope these parents find a better school for their kids. No kid deserves this type of highly politically hostile school environment.
The Palestinian community is not sorry for the murders on October 7th?? What about those children? Isreal defended themselves is all they did. Hamas hides in schools and hospitals like cowards, so blame them for the war, death, and destruction!! All I keep hearing is how the Gaza Strip is being attacked.
Why are they leaving the schools in Oakland? They voted for and donated to politicians that lead to Oakland descending into hell, and now they are complaining? 😂
Oakland school district is mess has been for years ..incompetent, administration and teachers miserable test scores .. are terrible have been for years.
sometimes learning that the world is not always a nice place is the most important lesson for a child. as long as there is no physical violence, the rest is just a learning curve. this is just young moms being snowflakes when J for Jesus is triggering you.
Teachers are there to teach. You can’t practice freedom of speech, when you’re harming children . What’s happening is terrible but it’s not these children’s fault. If you don’t believe what is happening is correct write to people that can change things. Do things out of work hours.
You should spend a week observing in classrooms from K-12 so that you develop a more nuanced understanding of what trachers are contending with. If you did, you’d likely turn your ire towards the State Board of Education and the State Legislature.

Why do the children feel unsafe when the teachers call for peace and free Palestine?
They shouldn't feel unsafe anywhere for simply existing. No matter where they are.
at least they have place to transfer to .
At least you can eat a chili dog outside a Foster's Freeze
Why didn’t they do an interview? They should do an interview. The public demands it we pay as parents and all residence pay taxes
How did they do that?? Unless they’re going to an expensive private school. Those are 70k a year…
No, some are getting permission, on an accelerated basis, to move to another county. Others are going to Jewish Day Schools that routinely provide financial support if needed. Jewish Day schools are known for strong academics in addition to a Jewish education.
