Minneapolis Public Schools has canceled classes and activities following the fatal shooting of a woman by an immigration officer and ensuing protests.
The school district, which has an enrolment of about 29,000 students, said in a statement on Wednesday that there will be no school, sports and activities on Thursday and Friday “due to safety concerns related to today’s incidents around the city.”
The 37-year-old woman, identified as Renee Nicole Good, was fatally shot in a residential neighbourhood south of downtown Minneapolis during the Trump administration’s latest immigration crackdown in a major city.
Her killing after 9:30 a.m. was recorded on video by witnesses.
Schools are woke.
Of course, because woke just means understanding reality not fantasy.
The elites need this country to up its rate of functional illiteracy, and schooling people is not going to help with that.
That’s exactly why they’ve been defunding schools for decades and more recently demonizing higher education as “woke”, which they have no actual definition for. Woke is whatever they don’t want, they never have a definition for it.
Barring the use of the term “woke”, the demonizing is not all that new. They’ve definitely been telling their uneducated white base to be suspect of people that attend college. I’ve even seen this among my in-laws: one of them literally said, “well you went to college” as a form of dismissal and a put-down. LOL.
Just like they cannot really define “woke”, they cannot define “elitist”, and that’s how they want to paint education (but being a literal BILLIONAIRE is just salt of the earth stuff) as “elitist” or as Santorum put it when talking about wanting people to be able to go to college, being a “snob”.
Of course, Santorum himself went to school, and got a BA, MBA, and a JD. IOKIYAR.

Defunding? Not defending, right?
Fucking autocorrect. Yeah.
