On Friday, President Donald Trump directed federal agencies to stop any training courses that advocate for ‘essential race theory,’ ‘white privilege,’ or any other ‘propaganda attempt’ to teach the United States or any race to be racist or bad inherently to them. On Sunday, the Department of Education (DOE) investigated schools that are teaching the “1619 Idea” of the New York Times, warning that every school “would not receive funding.”
Trump rejects the rising tide of Marxist philosophy of criticism. This negative philosophy, supported by the 1619 project and the anti-racist movement promoting Marx’s official Black Lives Matter, has sparked much of the violent arson, rioting and explosive effects this summer in cities across the Americas. Indeed, for this reason, some referred to the disturbances as “the 1619 disturbances.”
Trump’s attack on Marxist theory of criticism
The director of the Management and Budget Office (OMB), Russell Vought, sent a notice on Friday to the heads of the executive departments and agencies asking them to end their Marxist-critical theory preparation.
“It has come to the attention of the President that executive agencies have spent millions of dollars of taxpayer to date ‘training’ government employees to believe in divisive, anti-American propaganda,” Vought said. The director of the OMB seems to have applied to the 1483 pages of the Judicial Watch’s (Judicial Watch) training material issued in July. For example, an April 2015 training marked the notion that “individual effort is important to success” as a “Racist behaviour.”
Viewed referencing training sessions explaining that “almost all White people lead to racism” and others that “there is prejudice rooted in the idea that America is a nation of opportunities or that the talented individual can get work.”
“These kinds of ‘trainings’ do not only contradict the fundamental values our nation has held for since it was formed, but they also generate discord and frustration within the Federal workforce,” said Vought. “The President has instructed me to ensure that government agencies do not use taxpayer dollars to fund these divisive non-American propaganda sessions.”
Although OMB shall provide more guidance in the future, Federal agencies have been directed by Vought ‘to classify all contracts or other agency expenses in connexion with the promotion of ‘basic race theory,’ ‘white privilege’ or other propaganda or promotion activities that will be or will be (1) that the USA is a racist or evil nation or (2) that some race or ethnicity is intrinsic to that country.
“The divisive, inaccurate, and demeaning propaganda of vital race theory movement is opposed to all we Americans stand for and should have no place in the Federal government,” concluded Vought. Vought.
President Trump also provided the Department of Education (DOE) with a similar plan on Sunday. He replied with someone warning that schools in California began teaching the 1619 idea, stating that America ‘s true foundation did not come with the 1776 Declaration of Independence but the arrival of the first black slaves in 1619.
(When the first black slaves came to South Carolina as earlier as 1526, the 1619 project focussed more on defining America as historically and ultimately racist rather than on precise dates. The founder of the project, Nikole Hannah-Jones, acknowledged that her venture was “not about history,” but rather about the “past” and the “racial narrative.”)
The president tweeted for schools teaching the 1619 curriculum that the “Education Department” is looking into this. If so, they won’t be financed! The Education Department is looking at this.
If so, they ‘re not going to be financed! https ● t.co / dHsw6Y6Y3 M Donald J. Trump — September 6, 2020 (@realDonaldTrump)

Critical Marxist theory and “1619 riots”
The 1619 project utilises the same Marxist ideology, which the DOD taught Obama to demonise America and to inspire an unregulated and destructive revolution.
She told Portland activist Lilith Sinclair, “There is still a lot of effort to reverse the damage of colonised thinking that has been imposed on Black and Indigenous peoples.” She said she organises “the dissolution of … the United States as we know it” to eradicate the “colonised thought.” Marxist critical theory allows people to decompose different facets of culture, such as capitalism, nuclear physics, Judeo-Christian values, and political perceptions (as the Smithsonian briefly taught).
This sparks a goalless and crippling revolt. When the vandals overthrew a statue of George Washington in Portland, “1619” was sprayed on the monument.
When Charles Kesler of Claremont wrote in The New York Post “Call them riots in 1619,” Hannah-Jones replied in a tweet that “it would be a privilege” to take responsibility for the devastating disturbances and the persecution of American Founding Fathers such as George Washington. In an op-ed on November 9, 1995, the 1619 Project Creator denounced Christopher Columbus as “nothing more” but Adolf Hitler and diabetes the “white race” as the real “savages” and “sprinklers of blood.” She also described white America ‘s dream as a “brown America’s nightmare.”
However, the “1619 riots” actually oppressed black people even more than the U.S. allegedly did.
Black lives and black livelihoods and black monuments were ravaged by riots. At least 26 Americans, most of them black, died in the riots. The chairman is right.
In its training courses, the federal government does not instil Marxist critical theory ideology. American schools do not follow the overarching aims of the 1619 initiative for the creation of national narratives. Americans have long been standing up against this pernicious philosophy.
