Daily News | Education officials tell Moms of Liberty attendees that schools need to ‘get all this woke stuff out’
Catalina Stubbe, prays on Friday, June 30, 2023, during Moms for Liberty conference in Philadelphia, Pa.In between speeches from the Republican Party’s would-be presidents, attendees at Friday’s Moms for Liberty summit heard from a panel of state education leaders — but the underlying theme was much the same as that hammered by the political figures: Public schools are too woke.
This session, which followed remarks from former South Carolina governor Nikki Haley, included a panel of education officials — Florida Education Commissioner Manny Diaz Jr.
Among his objections, Diaz cited an example of a math textbook including a mention of “having two moms or two dads.” He blamed teachers’ unions and “the academic elite,” claiming that superintendents “come out of woke hiring organizations.”
