DeKalb County School District is currently hosting the BLM at School Week of Action, a controversial activist curriculum that, in part, calls for the "disruption of Western nuclear family dynamics."

The case is still pending and has not been heard at trial yet.

"While it is important to celebrate and inspire all children, Black Lives Matter at School is an inappropriate partnership for public school systems, like DeKalb County School District, with a political activist enterprise that is connected to the Black Lives Matter global nonprofit machine riddled with financial and political controversy," she continued.
One of the lessons offered by the DeKalb County School District was one for kids as young as kindergarten titled "Looking at Race and Racial Identity in Children’s Books," while another, titled "The Truth About Voting," was geared to teach students "some common myths about voting today" and have students think "through who these myths might benefit."

"While schools today are not segregated by law, segregated housing patterns and unequal funding systems have concentrated students of color into underfunded, under-equipped institutions that some critics call ‘apartheid schools,’" it continued.
A lesson for third through fifth graders titled "Discovering My Identity" says "students will describe aspects of their identity such as race, gender, ability, religion and more."
"Then after exploring Marley Dias’ Black Girls Book campaign, students will analyze book illustrations and write their own book review noting how characters are similar and different from them," it says.
