Our Plan
EDUCATED WE STAND IS A NATIONAL ORGANIZATION SOLELY DEDICATED TO BLUNTING THE PROGRESS OF FAR-RIGHT SCHOOL TAKEOVERS.
School boards and state legislatures are the front lines of the far-right’s attempt of an ideological takeover in the United States. The organized far-right effort is:
The organized far-right effort is:
Recruiting and funding school board candidates
Candidates who pledge to promote conservative curriculums, support book bans, and limit the autonomy of educators who stand up for unbiased education.
Directing orchestrated, national intimidation and misinformation campaigns
Campaigns at parents and educators across the US.
Creating a library of policy language
Language that can be used to introduce far-right bills in state legislatures and messaging campaigns that can be used to secure their passage.
To counter these efforts, EDUCATED WE STAND will:
Establish a national network of independent expenditure campaigns, campaign operatives, and resources
Resources to recruit, elect, and protect school board members who support factual broad based-public education — and defeat those who do not.
Develop regional, state and national messaging
Messaging — rooted in research — to establish training for elected leaders, parents, and local organizations on how to counter extremist arguments and defend unbiased learning environments.
Create policy and legislation libraries for elected leaders and policy makers.
The library will provide officials who support public education with research based, ready-made language to introduce and pass laws and policy directives which support academic freedom and objectivity in our schools.
Operate media and communications to educate communities on the dangers of far-right takeovers of public schools.
EDUCATED WE STAND will counter disinformation and misinformation through engaging social media content and national press campaigns.
