Republicans in Texas are bringing propaganda and white nationalist indoctrination to our public schools.

Yesterday, the far-right propaganda outlet announced they were now an approved vendor for the State of Texas. The announcement included a short video featuring white supremacy advocate and January 6th insurrectionist, SBOE member Julie Pickren.
Fascist movements in history have always targeted education as a means to control and manipulate public perception, molding the minds of the younger generation to align with their ideological agenda.
PragerU, if you’ve been fortunate enough not to see them, promote white supremacist and fascist ideas, and package them into short videos with cartoons and right-wing commentators. One recent video featuring an animated Frederick Douglas calling slavery a “compromise.” The same video claimed that believing the lives of Black people held value would lead to higher crime.
PragerU’s videos contain widely considered misleading and false content promoting climate change denial. Historians and political scientists have also criticized PragerU’s videos for containing deceptive and inaccurate claims about topics such as slavery and racism in the United States, immigration, and the history of fascism. PragerU has been accused of promoting anti-LGBT politics.
