Dear Friend,

Here are the details:
 
When: Saturday, January 8, 9:30 to 11 a.m.

Mr. Harvey will discuss:
 
  • The origins of SEL (Social and Emotional Learning)
  • The Semantic Deceptions of those promoting SEL
  • SEL's foundations in unsettled science
  • DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) - What you are led to see vs what you get
  • SEL's race to power
  • How SEL uses data collection to prioritize emotional conformity over educational content
  • What are SEL's 'competencies'?
  • Intersectionality firmly links SEL with Social Justice Activism and Critical Theory
  • How SEL is incompatible with justice
  • Red Flags for which to watch
  • Dangerous distinctions without a meaningful difference: SEL, DEI, CRT, CT
  • Understanding what promoters of SEL would prefer you to remain ignorant of
  • How to semantically strike back by reframing SEL's 'lived experiences' with reality

Fools will be suffered and battered with glee,
Trolls will be fed and booted for free,
at least until they become more boring than fun,
or if they peg my disgust-o-meter,
at which point they'll be deleted,
unsung.
