A Department of Defense education officer’s “racial justice” books are featured in nearly one-third of Pentagon K-12 schools, according to a report Thursday.
Kelisa Wing, chief diversity, equity and inclusion officer for Department of Defense Education Activity, is the co-author of 23 children’s books, including, “What is White Privilege?” “What Does It Mean to Defund Police?” and “What Is Anti-Racism?” according to Open the Books.
As of January, 49 DOD schools carried 606 copies of Wing’s books, a more than 1,200 percent increase since October.
“DoDEA is charged with educating nearly 70,000 children of servicemembers and other military-related personnel, many of whom have no other education choices when stationed overseas,” wrote Adam Andrzejewski, the author of the report.
“We call for complete transparency so servicemembers can understand what their children are being taught and taxpayers can decide if their money is well spent,” Andrzejewski said.
In a Military Times interview, Wing denied being a co-author of the children’s books, which feature the author’s name and “with Kelisa Wing.” Instead, she said she was a “content adviser.”
However, shortly after calling herself a “content adviser,” Wing referred to her colleagues listed on the books as her “co-author,” Open the Books reported.
THIS IS WRONG!!!
The government looks at service K-12 schools as incubators for the next generations of woke service people, including those headed to the service academies.
