A hugely influential private organization plans to release
courses that will teach America�s top students extreme racial
and other leftist politics, all with public institutions and

Ahugely influential private organization plans to release
courses that will teach America�s top students extreme racial
and other leftist politics, all with public institutions and
funds, according to documents obtained by researcher Stanley
Kurtz. The College Board, whose products are sold in almost
every American high school, is developing curricula modeled on
colleges� identity politics departments such as gender and
racial studies, the documents show.

A draft Kurtz obtained of College Board�s forthcoming Advanced
Placement African American Studies (APAAS) course shows, he
writes:

APAAS clearly proselytizes for a socialist transformation of the
United States, although its socialism is heavily inflected by
attention to race and ethnicity. �

The topic descriptions sound neutral, but the readings almost
uniformly consist of neo-Marxist agitation � pleas for a
socialist transformation of America, inspired by African
Americans and infused with their cultural style. APAAS�s
�debates,� such as they are, explore precisely what sort of
leftist radical you should be.

The College Board already helps gatekeep American students�
access to higher education with its SAT college entrance exam.
After College Board hired one of the �architects� of Common Core
as its president, the nonprofit overhauled its SAT exam to fit
Common Core, after which the SAT�s market share of the college
entrance exam market declined.

College Board also licenses to both public and private schools
advanced courses that offer students dual credit, for both high
school and college, called Advanced Placement. These help secure
the private organization major influence over what the United
States�s most promising high school students learn and more than
$1 billion in annual revenue that comes in large part from
American taxpayers.

Under Common Core architect David Coleman, College Board also
revamped its existing history classes, which are often the last
history class America�s college-educated citizens ever take. The
revised Advanced Placement courses were infused with identity
politics and anti-American and anti-Western readings of history,
found independent reviews by academics assembled by the National
Association of Scholars.

Kurtz finds that at least one of the five writers of College
Board�s forthcoming African American studies class for high
schoolers is an open Marxist sympathizer and proselytizer who
�bemoans the false objectivity of historians whose writings
�rarely target capitalism for condemnation and destruction.'�

At National Review, Kurtz explores in-depth the draft
curriculum�s structure and selections that promote political
violence and hatred for the American system, which are presented
approvingly instead of as representative of the dangers of
Marxist ideology. As Kurtz notes, such a curriculum clearly
would violate new state laws against state-sponsored
promulgation of critical race theory.

It�s no wonder, then, that polls and studies consistently find
that the youngest Americans and those with the most exposure to
politically corrupted education institutions are the most anti-
American and most supportive of Marxist permutations, including
socialism and identity politics. This is an existential crisis
for a country built on citizen self-governance and widespread
respect for fellow citizens� inalienable natural rights, with
which Marxism is at war. Certainly no country should fund hatred
for its own history, citizens, and ideals, either directly or
indirectly.

As Kurtz writes, Americans who want honest history taught to the
next generation must repel and replace the College Board�s one-
sided monopoly offerings for America�s top students. That goes
not only for its in-development identity politics courses but
also its compromised existing oeuvre. America�s kids deserve
far, far better than this, and our future depends on them
getting an honest education rather than an indoctrination in
racial hatred, cynicism, and self-loathing.
