Coming soon to Minnesota! Teachers must demonstrate a Marxist worldview to obtain their teaching license

Marxist ideology and practices are coming to Minnesota schools disguised as new teacher
licensing rules.
The Minnesota teacher licensing board is called the Professional Educators Licensing and
Standards Board or PELSB. Each board member was appointed by Gov. Walz and PELSB is fast
tracking new teacher licensing requirements.
The new standards will embed basic Marxist principles and practices such as critical race
theory (CRT), fluid sexual identity, and gender politics into all Minnesota schools.
Standard Marxist practices and dogma divide people into opposing groups so that students and
teachers must view themselves not as individuals, but as members of groups—oppressor
groups or oppressed groups, and oppressed groups must be liberated from the exploitation of
their oppressors.
When formally adopted, the new requirements must be met to become or remain licensed
to teach in Minnesota, including teaching in Early Childhood Family Education (ECFE) from
pre-natal on, and Adult Basic Education, Rule Draft RD4615 (cplaction.com) – (key language is
highlighted in yellow). Since nonpublic schools generally hire licensed teachers, these
standards will apply to them as well.
Below are some of the new licensing standards. We have bracketed our commentary on the
meaning and significance of the standard. Teachers must:

Help students develop social identities based upon their social grouping. [Group
identities will usurp individual identities];
• Comply with the construct of “multiple identity formation” [This means they must
identify which identity groups a student belongs to, the scale of power assigned to
each identity group and how their ‘identities’ intersect. This is called
“intersectionality.”];
• Incorporate “Social and Emotional Learning” (SEL) into all classes [SEL seeks to
transform the values, attitudes, and beliefs of students and achieve full
compliance with equity and gender ideology.];
• Understand “systemic trauma,” including racism and micro & macro aggression
[Trauma is presumed to have been inflicted upon victims from the oppressor
classes];Child Protection League Action, PO Box 463, Mankato, MN 56002 [email protected]
• Be “inclusive” to reflect “diversity of cultures” [Teachers will have to affirm
homosexuality, transgenderism, sexual identity (gender as a choice not biology),
and the absence of moral standards for sexual practices which will set the stage
for the normalization of pedophilia];
• Fully affirm and incorporate identity politics into the school, including race, gender,
gender identity, sexual orientation, religious beliefs, economic status, and ethnicity;
• Focus on implicit bias and systemic racism, including “white privilege”;
• Prioritize materials from “traditionally marginalized voices that offer diverse
perspectives on race, culture, language, gender, sexual identity, religion, nationality,
migrant/refugee status… and other identities traditionally silenced or omitted from the
curriculum.” [Identity politics will drive curriculum content);
• Teach materials that “empower learners to be agents of social change and promote
equity. [“Equity” means required equal outcomes, not equal opportunity. Marx said
it this way: “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.”];
• Train students in social activism through service learning;
• Connect students with local and global political activists;
• Understand that Minnesota’s laws were created to oppress by race, class, gender, sexual
orientation, language, and nationality; [This is the Marxist interpretation of history
through presumed identity group power.]
• Understand white supremacy, and how racism operates institutionally [The Marxist
assumption that our institutions are fundamentally racist];
• Understand “enthnocentrism” and “eurocentrism” as undermining “equity.”
[“Eurocentrism” and “ethnocentrism” form the core of America’s cultural,
religious, and political heritage and are presented as racist and oppressive. Young
people will be stripped of their history and instead be told their heritage is
oppressive: racist, “white” and “heteronormative.”]

Every CRT and gender fluid buzzword is embedded into the standards, and they are
required to be incorporated into the instruction. Italian Marxist, Antonio Gramsci, said that
people are “trapped in a prison-house of language.” Because language determines how people
think, he emphasized that we must change the language of the culture in order to usher in
the Marxist revolution.
In summary, the new licensing standards will force every Minnesota teacher and school to
become Marxist revolution indoctrination centers.
It’s time the public is informed about what is going on.
