(CITY JOURNAL) – An elementary school in Cupertino, California – a Silicon Valley community with a median home price of $2.3 million – recently forced a class of third-graders to deconstruct their racial identities, then rank themselves according to their "power and privilege."
Based on whistleblower documents and parents familiar with the session, a third-grade teacher at R.I. Meyerholz Elementary School began the lesson on "social identities" during a math class. The teacher asked all students to create an "identity map," listing their race, class, gender, religion, family structure, and other characteristics.
