Last fall, The College Fix reported on the proposed new teacher standards for wannabe educators in the state of Illinois.
These standards included statements such as “Every student deserves to feel welcome […] and to see their cultural identity affirmed and represented in the curriculum” and that “[educators will] embrace and encourage progressive viewpoints and perspectives …”
That last part, thankfully, was modified following criticism … and before the Illinois State Board of Education approved the standards in February.
Nevertheless, conservatives and free speech advocates worry the standards amount to a form of “compelled speech.” Students for Life of America’s Sarah Minnich told The Fix’s Matt Lamb back in February the standards would be “dangerous” for pro-life educators and “could force [teachers] to talk about political issues from a leftist viewpoint.” The Illinois Pro-Family Alliance said “certain narratives will be required, and counter-narratives excluded and proscribed.”
State teacher education programs have jumped in to incorporate the standards.

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
