This money has been traced back to the Center for the American Experiment\, the Heritage Foundation\, and ALEC\, whose written mission statement is to destroy public education and replace it with voucher systems for private schools.  \n\n\n\nThe Parents Alliance and their backers are having a speaker at the Coon Rapids Civic Center tonight at 7PM. The speaker is employed by the Center for the American Experiment and formerly by the Heritage Foundation\, which are extreme right wing think tanks/lobbyists. This speaker will be speaking AGAINST social studies/ethnic studies in Anoka Hennepin schools! \n\n\n\nBackground – AH Board members Audette\, Arco\, and Hoekman have blocked the adoption of new social studies as required by the MN state curriculum standards. This raises the concern about Anoka Hennepin students being able to graduate as they would not meet the MN graduation standards.  \n\n\n\nThis donation of $157K is a blatant attempt to buy the largest school district in MN. We cannot let them win!  \n\n\n\nThe media will be there so it’s important to have a large group protesting! \n\n\n\nSign Ideas:  \n\n\n\nOUR SCHOOLS ARE NOT FOR SALE  \n\n\n\nDON’T WHITEWASH HISTORY \n\n\n\nA-H BOARD MUST FOLLOW STATE GUIDELINES  \n\n\n\nSOCIAL STUDIES ARE IMPORTANT \n\n\n\nPublic Schools are for the Public Good \n\n\n\nPublic Schools serve ALL students \n\n\n\nALL STUDENTS WELCOME \n\n\n\nETHNIC STUDIES ARE AMERICAN STUDIES \n\n\n\nFUND OUR SCHOOLS \n\n\n\nKEEP PUBLIC SCHOOLS PUBLIC \n\n\n\nWe are the Grassroots! \n\n\n\nKeep school board funding local!  URL:https://dflneighborhoodnetwork.net/event/emergency-protest-tonight-at-the-coon-rapids-civic-center/ LOCATION:MN ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://dflneighborhoodnetwork.net/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/unnamed.jpg END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/Chicago:20250928T120000 DTEND;TZID=America/Chicago:20250928T180000 DTSTAMP:20250828T174559Z CREATED:20250828T174558Z LAST-MODIFIED:20250828T174559Z UID:5249-1759060800-1759082400@dflneighborhoodnetwork.net SUMMARY:Abbey Payeur Book Fair DESCRIPTION:Meet Abbey and choose from hundreds of free\, gently used books for kids and adults.
