Teach Truth FCPS Campaign

We see everyday that the national movement to shut out historical truth in history and social studies curriculum in schools is gaining ground. The loudest shouts we hear pushing this agenda recently at school board meetings and in the news are from a minority of misinformed parents who are afraid of their children learning about the United States' racist past and present. Right-wing political operatives backed by Koch Brother money are also pushing state laws that seek to sweep the United States' true history under the rug. However, we know that many parents and teachers want their children to learn a genuine history, which includes discussions about race and racism and depicts the perspectives of all groups within US history, thereby promoting development of critical thinking skills.

​
FAM (Free & Antiracist Minds), a local organization based in Fairfax County, is building a network of parents/guardians of FCPS students who want to stay informed about and support efforts to ensure that a genuine United States history is taught in FCPS, so that our students will become global citizens with critical thinking skills. If you are an FCPS parent/guardian that would like to learn more, please sign up below.
