Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: We got a question for our American mama's. Dear mamas,
- 0:03Speaker 1: do you think the Supreme Court will side with parents
- 0:06Speaker 1: about LGBTQ plus material in school? Well, let's ask our
- 0:10Speaker 1: marak and mama's alma mama and joining us now our
- 0:25Speaker 1: American Mamaterary Netivel Kimberly Burlison is out and about.
- 0:28Speaker 2: Okay.
- 0:28Speaker 1: So the Supreme Court heard a case out of Maryland
- 0:31Speaker 1: this week where Maryland parents are saying, look, the school
- 0:33Speaker 1: district is trying to indoctrinate our kids. They're trying to
- 0:37Speaker 1: force our kids to read books about boys falling in
- 0:41Speaker 1: love with boys, about same sex marriage, about.
- 0:45Speaker 2: Like they're saying, they're wanting books to be read about
- 0:48Speaker 2: your gender. You might not think that you're a boy.
- 0:50Speaker 1: Oh yes, right, you know that whole thing, the whole gender.
- 0:53Speaker 1: And that's isn't that indoctrination?
- 0:56Speaker 2: It is? It is? Okay. So you have this case
- 1:00Speaker 2: and we're talking about four to six year olds, right,
- 1:03Speaker 2: babies who are just learning how to read the words.
- 1:05Speaker 1: Right.
- 1:06Speaker 2: So I was watching Ryan, I mean Randy Winingarten.
- 1:10Speaker 1: The president of one of the largest teachers unions.
- 1:13Speaker 2: Yes, she kind of. She discredited herself during COVID. In
- 1:17Speaker 2: my opinion, oh completely. She was not about the children
- 1:20Speaker 2: at all.
- 1:20Speaker 1: No, and she said everybody has lockdown. Then she went
- 1:23Speaker 1: on vacation, that's tropical paradise.
- 1:24Speaker 2: That's right, and wanted them to remain lockdown after every
- 1:28Speaker 2: other state had, you know, withdrawn that lockdown. But anyway,
- 1:32Speaker 2: she was on Martha McCallum's show, and Martha was saying
- 1:35Speaker 2: to her, listen, you're you're talking about reading books out
- 1:40Speaker 2: loud to the class that says that confuses them. They're
- 1:44Speaker 2: just trying to learn the words how to read. And
- 1:48Speaker 2: she said, so if this is if this is what
- 1:51Speaker 2: you're wanting, it feels like you're trying to indoctrinate. You're
- 1:54Speaker 2: trying to push things on kids before they're ready. The
- 1:57Speaker 2: parents are simply saying, fine, if you want to have
- 1:59Speaker 2: that book in the library for someone to check out
- 2:01Speaker 2: or a family to check out, okay, that's fine, but
- 2:05Speaker 2: it should not be required reading. They are asking that
- 2:08Speaker 2: their child be able to be removed from the class
- 2:11Speaker 2: when this teacher reads this book.
- 2:13Speaker 1: Out loud right, And Marilynd's been saying, no, you have
- 2:18Speaker 1: to have the kids in this class first of all.
- 2:24Speaker 1: And your kids went through some Sometimes they were in
- 2:28Speaker 1: private school, sometimes they were in public school. They did
- 2:31Speaker 1: a variety. If you had had your kids in a
- 2:35Speaker 1: situation where there was a teacher who was teaching something
- 2:38Speaker 1: you absolutely disagreed with from a from a cultural, political,
- 2:42Speaker 1: religious standpoint, what would you have done as a parent.
- 2:45Speaker 2: Well, I would have gone to the board. I actually
- 2:48Speaker 2: would have gone to her, and then you know, probably
- 2:51Speaker 2: would have gone to the headmaster and said, this just
- 2:54Speaker 2: doesn't align with a lot of us in here, right,
- 2:56Speaker 2: and then we would have taken it to the board
- 2:58Speaker 2: and we would have done all the things that these
- 3:00Speaker 2: parents in Maryland would have done. Then most likely, if
- 3:03Speaker 2: it went the other way, I probably would have begun
- 3:06Speaker 2: homes schooling, which is exactly what's happening all across America.
- 3:10Speaker 1: It's what we actually did with our daughter.
- 3:11Speaker 2: That's right.
- 3:12Speaker 1: We homeschooled her. She was in a junior high situation.
- 3:15Speaker 1: It wasn't good and there was social contagent going on,
- 3:18Speaker 1: and we weren't Nope, we're pulling her out, and she
- 3:20Speaker 1: was so much more successful homeschooling.
- 3:23Speaker 2: Well, they said, okay. So one of the things that
- 3:26Speaker 2: Martha said to Randy was she looked at the numbers.
- 3:30Speaker 2: And in Maryland, the schools in Maryland when the kids
- 3:35Speaker 2: were in twenty eighteen, they were number two or was
- 3:38Speaker 2: it Maine in the country. And she said, look, and
- 3:41Speaker 2: then now they're number twenty one. So whatever they're pushing
- 3:44Speaker 2: is not working right now. And she said, and look,
- 3:48Speaker 2: we can't say that they're not getting getting enough money.
- 3:51Speaker 2: They're getting New York, California, they're getting so much money.
- 3:55Speaker 2: And even during COVID, when the school's got even more
- 3:58Speaker 2: money for COVID, none of us know where that went.
- 4:00Speaker 2: Didn't go to the kids, didn't go to the classrooms.
- 4:03Speaker 2: So we need somebody in there. And here's the other
- 4:05Speaker 2: thing I don't understand, Steven. So this went to the
- 4:07Speaker 2: Supreme Court. Yeah, and Jackson, the newest Ji Brown Jackson. Yes,
- 4:12Speaker 2: she is battling on behalf of the school union. She's
- 4:16Speaker 2: battling and saying, yes, these should be read in class
- 4:19Speaker 2: and your child should not be removed from class while
- 4:21Speaker 2: they're reading. What in the world.
- 4:24Speaker 1: Yeah, I wonder how she squares that with parental rights
- 4:28Speaker 1: with individual rights. I mean, ultimately parents are the ones
- 4:32Speaker 1: who should have jurisdiction over kids, not the state.
- 4:36Speaker 2: That's right.
- 4:36Speaker 1: I mean that's like fundamental to the development of the
- 4:40Speaker 1: nation in the beginning, is that families are the building blocks.
- 4:44Speaker 1: Jurisdiction belongs with the people, sovereignty belongs with the people.
- 4:49Speaker 1: The state doesn't do a good job of rising kids.
- 4:51Speaker 2: Right exactly, and you know, I have to turn it around.
- 4:54Speaker 2: I did that with my children when they would have
- 4:56Speaker 2: a fuss, I'd say, I want you to see it
- 4:58Speaker 2: from their side. I want to. So let's say that
- 5:00Speaker 2: I have some children in my home and I am
- 5:03Speaker 2: focused on I'm going to have a devotional when y'all
- 5:06Speaker 2: come over. The first fifteen minutes, we're going to learn
- 5:09Speaker 2: about God, about Adam and Eve, and how it's just
- 5:12Speaker 2: one man, one woman. And I have a parent that says, oh, Terry,
- 5:16Speaker 2: we're not really comfortable with that. That's just not something
- 5:19Speaker 2: that we and our family believe or teach. I would
- 5:22Speaker 2: one hundred percent say, oh, you got it. Well, then
- 5:25Speaker 2: while they're in my home, while other children and there
- 5:27Speaker 2: are in my home, I will refrain from that, and
- 5:29Speaker 2: we'll have arts and christs and do other things, and
- 5:32Speaker 2: I will teach my children my way when the other
- 5:35Speaker 2: kids leave. I would never force my beliefs on anybody
- 5:38Speaker 2: and that's another point. Let's say that the left. Let's
- 5:42Speaker 2: say that you had teachers in America that were teaching
- 5:44Speaker 2: Christianity to their students and they brought in these Christian
- 5:48Speaker 2: based stories from the Bible. You don't think that the
- 5:52Speaker 2: left will lose their minds and want to take this
- 5:55Speaker 2: all the way to the Supreme Court.
- 5:57Speaker 1: And we should be able to opt out, yes, or
- 5:59Speaker 1: at least Actually, what they've done is they've just banned
- 6:02Speaker 1: the reading of the Bible exactly class. They didn't say
- 6:05Speaker 1: we should opt out. They should.
- 6:06Speaker 2: Why is that? Because you have because of the Democrats.
- 6:09Speaker 2: The Democrats all both the same at the Supreme Court level.
- 6:13Speaker 2: We now know that the Republicans do not, and oftentimes
- 6:16Speaker 2: they'll go to the left. Why because of power?
