Take Action today to SUPPORT President Huddle.
Send email to the OSBA Trustees TODAY, Friday, May 7, 2021.
We must take a stand and let the powers that be throughout Ohio know we will not tolerate Critical Race Theory (CRT) being taught in Ohio’s Schools!
CRT: AN UN-AMERICAN TOOL FOR DIVIDING — NOT UNITING
In a nutshell, the goal of CRT advocates is to divide Americans by race, and to use this division to permanently achieve political supremacy. They do this by duping Americans into seeing themselves not as individuals with inalienable rights, but as members of a race which is in a permanent struggle of survival against all other races. Rather than trying to fix the root causes of societal ills, CRT uses guilt, past wrongs, and propaganda to assign the blame for the problems of one race by placing them on another thereby fomenting distrust, hate and civil strife.
To help you get a sense of the distorted outcomes CRT promotes, here is a portion of a poem written by an Ohio teacher:
“I am ashamed of my white privileged skin. Ashamed of my white brothers and sisters with their small minds killing my innocent brothers and sisters because of a color.”
You can find more about CRT here and here.
THE BATTLE
Mr. Scott Huddle has taken a courageous stand by speaking out against using CRT in Ohio’s schools.
Who is Scott Huddle? He is the President of the Ohio School Boards Association (OSBA), which is a member-driven advocacy organization for over 600 of Ohio’s school districts. As a result of his just and brave stance regarding CRT, some OSBA members are calling for his resignation from OSBA. You can find out more details about this disgraceful situation here.
CALL TO ACTION: EMAIL the OSBA Trustees TODAY, Friday, May 7, 2021.
We cannot let truth tellers like Scott Huddle stand alone. You must join with every like-minded parent and citizen and let the 32 OSBA Trustees (listed below) know you support Scott Huddle and reject Cancel Culture. Below is the suggested email for the Trustees, and you can use this suggested subject line “Support President Huddle”:

Dear OSBA Trustee,
I am writing to express my support of OSBA President Scott Huddle. According to news sources, President Huddle is under attack for comments he made regarding his concerns about Critical Race Theory. I share his concerns.
Our children should not be educated in a manner that is racially divisive, or that teaches them to judge differences in skin color instead of content of character. I am opposed to any local, state or federal requirement that would force a local school district to incorporate critical race theory into their instruction.
President Huddle should be applauded for his courage and leadership, and I urge you to extend your support to him as well. I will be contacting my local school board members to share this information with them, and to encourage them to ensure that their membership in OSBA aligns with the beliefs and values of their constituency.
Sincerely,
