The Bozeman School district published these "talking points" in an effort to diffuse opposition to their proposed equity plan. They make it a particular point to dismiss Critical Race Theory, telling us that CRT is not being proposed. That of course does not mean things couldn't change later, especially considering how the political Left pushes their agenda unceasingly.
We wish to address one thing in particular, the cartoon drawing of how equity works, see below. This has been around a long time in
different forms, but previously was used to describe sameness versus equality. In either case, the cartoon is troubling.
Notice three children, all standing on boxes. One cannot see over the fence. In the second panel the tall child no longer has a box, but the short child has two boxes. This is "equity," according to the Bozeman School district.
However, the obvious problem not explained by the school district is, who took the box from the tall child? How was it decided that the tall child should have his box taken away and given to the short child? How does this manifest in real life? Would a gifted student be denied advanced placement courses because educational resources would be diverted to special education, for example? What exactly is the resource (box) being denied the tall child and given to the short child?
The cartoon is not actually about giving slower students or disadvantaged students more attention, as indicated by the talking point. The cartoon has nothing to do with educational resources. Rather, it is wealth redistribution, which justifies the taking of a rich person's "extra" money and giving it to someone more worthy of it.
Like so much of what the Left does, this cartoon example is indicative of how little the Left thinks about what they're doing, or what the implications of their actions will be.
Or maybe they just don't care. This could be why they were shocked by the extent of the opposition.
