CA School Tells Third Graders To Rank Themselves According To ‘Power And Privilege’

At an elementary school in Cupertino, California, a teacher of third graders instructed them to deconstruct their racial and sexual identities, then create rankings based on their “power and privilege.” The project was met with backlash from parents.

The majority of families at the school are Asian-American, and the parent who led the protest against the intersectionality curriculum was Asian-American. The group of families confronted the principal, which ultimately caused the school to suspend the program, as Christopher Rufo reported.
