Students in a Seattle English class were told that their love of reading and writing is a characteristic of “w***e s*******y,” in the latest Seattle Public Schools high school controversy. The lesson plan has one local father speaking out, calling it “educational malpractice.”
As part of the Black L***s M****r at School Week, World Literature and Composition students at Lincoln High School were given a handout with definitions of the “9 characteristics of w***e s*******y,” according to the father of a student. Given the subject matter of the class, the father found it odd this particular lesson was brought up.
The Seattle high schoolers were told that “Worship of the Written Word” is w***e s*******y because it is “an erasure of the wide range of ways we communicate with each other.” By this definition, the very subject of World Literature and Composition is r****t. It also chides the idea that we hyper-value written communication because it’s a form of “honoring only what is written and even then only what is written to a narrow standard, full of misinformation and lies.” The worksheet does not provide any context for what it actually means.
“I feel bad for any students who actually internalize stuff like this as it is setting them up for failure,” the father explained to the Jason Rantz Show on KTTH.

Everything is ‘w***e s*******y’ at Seattle Public Schools
The father asked to remain anonymous for fear of retribution against his child by Seattle Public Schools. He said the other pieces of the worksheet were equally disturbing.
The worksheet labels “objectivity,” “individualism,” and “perfectionism” as w***e s*******y. If students deny their own r****m — or that any of the nine characteristics are legitimately r****t — is also w***e s*******y. Denialism or being overly defensive is a r****t example of an “entitlement to name what is an [sic] isn’t r****m and that those with power have a right to be shielded from the stresses of antir****t work.”
The father argues the concepts are “incoherent and cannot stand any sort of reasoned analysis.” And he notes that it’s set up to ensure students accept every concept without ever questioning the claims.
“How is a 15-year-old kid supposed to object in class when ‘denial and defensiveness’ is itself a characteristic of w***e s*******y? This is truly educational malpractice.”

White students told to apologize in yet another Seattle high school controversy
Another aspect of the w***e s*******y lesson at this Seattle school involved a video titled “Getting Called Out: How to Apologize” by Franchesca Ramsey. It’s reportedly presented in the context of white students expressing what the teacher views as “w***e s*******y.”
“Getting called out, in this context of this video, is when you say or do something that upholds the oppression of a marginalized group of people,” Ramsey says.
Ramsey says her advice is about becoming an ally and “doing the right thing.” She explains you shouldn’t “get defensive” by denying you’re oppressing marginalized people, even if you’re not actually oppressing marginalized people.
“What you really need to do is listen because this is where the other person is hopefully going to explain to you what you did wrong and how you can explain it,” she says.
In the context of the worksheet on w***e s*******y, it seems clear that students must merely accept that they are upholding oppression. Using the worksheet, if a student defends independence or a love of reading and writing, that student is supposed to accept that it’s w***e s*********t thinking and stop acting independently or loving to read and write.

Father says Seattle Public Schools isn’t serving students
The father says he taught his son to be on the lookout for this kind of Radical Left indoctrination. It’s why his son f**gged the worksheets to him. But he notes that the curriculum doesn’t exactly help his kid on the subject he’s supposed to be learning.
“My problem with this curriculum is that this is supposed to be a writing and literature class and lessons like these do nothing to help my kid become a better writer,” the father explained. “I’m sure Lincoln administration will point to the high ELA proficiency scores but the high proportion of HCC [highly capable] kids (40% of the student body) is a big factor. With so many smart, hard working kids (w***e s*********ts) it’s easy to support these luxury beliefs but system-wide only 63% of kids are proficient in English. Is this really the best use of class time? ”
The father also wonders how many students will fall for this toxic thinking across Seattle schools where concepts around w***e s*******y are so clearly partisan.
“I feel bad for any students who actually internalize stuff like this as it is setting them up for failure,” he said.
