Megyn Kelly has pulled her kids from their woke private school.
As reported by the New York Post, the host said she yanked her two young boys from their Upper West Side private school.
The reason: Allegedly, a letter there recently made its rounds charging white people with “reveling in state-sanctioned depravity.”
Furthermore, purportedly, it compared white children to “killer cops.”
Per the Post, Megyn’s a member of the school’s “diversity group” in which the letter was circulated.
On new podcast The Megyn Kelly Show, she indicated a previously permissive attitude toward the school’s Leftward lean:
“After years of resisting it, we’re going to leave the city. The schools have always been far-Left, which doesn’t align with my own ideology, but I didn’t really care, most of my friends are liberals, it’s fine. I come from a Democrat family, I’m not offended at all by the ideology, and I lean center-left on some things.”
But, apparently, enough’s enough.
She read from the letter, which was written by nonprofit Orleans Public Education Network Executive Director Nahliah Webber:
There is a killer cop sitting in every school where white children learn. They gleefully soak in their whitewashed history that downplays the holocaust of indigenous native peoples and Africans in the Americas. They happily believe their all-white spaces exist as a matter of personal effort and willingly use violence against black bodies to keep those spaces white.
Of course, if the letter refers to American Indians, they were not “native” by comparison to most other U.S. citizens, as the word refers to one’s birthplace. As for being indigenous, according to experts, those forming North American tribes came from Asia via the Bering Strait.
Moving on — as posted to a blog titled “If You Really Want to Make a Difference in Black Lives, Change How You Teach White Kids” compliments of EducationPost.org — Nahliah continues:
I am tired of white people reveling in their state-sanctioned depravity, snuffing out black life with no consequences. Where’s the urgency for school reform for white kids being indoctrinated in black death and protected from the consequences? Where are the government-sponsored reports looking into how white mothers are raising culturally deprived children who think black death is okay?
Megyn didn’t name the school, but NYP suggests it may not be a difficult riddle to solve:
Kelly didn’t identify her sons’ school on the podcast. But she recently spoke about the COVID-19 death of her son’s music teacher, Don Sorel — who taught at the Collegiate School, a $55,900-a-year, K-12, all-boys school just off Riverside Boulevard between West 61st and 62nd streets.
On her program, she explained the school wanted Nahliah’s racial read distributed “to all the faculty.”
Megyn’s sum-up:
“They’ve gone around the bend. They have gone off the deep end.”
Over the course of this year, the attorney and journalist’s reminded us she’s not afraid to call-out those she believes have traveled beyond the edge.
In August, she pushed back on claims by Black Lives Matter:
Won what? A visual display that is based on misinformation re: police & the USA, past & present? Americans will figure out that BLM is an org that wants to dismantle the nuclear family, the justice system & the police syst so critical to protecting Black lives, esp women & kids. https://t.co/OrfgNnUx2D

And just last month, she grabbed at the Girl Scouts:
This is pathetic @girlscouts. It’s not “partisan” to generically congratulate the 5th woman ever to join the High Court. It’s patriotic. Taking your tweet down *is* partisan, however, and a real disappointment. https://t.co/ecct6oU8O4

Back to the school situation, Megyn’s withdrawing all three youngsters (she has a daughter as well) on account of a lack of faith:
“Which boy in my kid’s school is the future killer cop? Is it my boy? Which boy is it? Because I don’t happen to believe that they’re in there.”
Or maybe that’s just her privilege talking. Good Housekeeping made clear the distinct possibility this June:
If you are white, you might be surprised that your “normal” way of life is a privilege that Black people don’t get to enjoy.
