Re: “Holocaust schooling requirement fails in WA Legislature” [Feb. 24, Local News]:
I respect the thorough reporting on the failure of the Holocaust schooling invoice. Nevertheless, the article downplays the function of Washington Ethnic Research Now, as I’ve reported in The Cholent, Seattle’s solely Jewish information outlet. WAESN mobilized the opposition with misinformation in regards to the invoice and its funding. Extra regarding, WAESN has a documented historical past of making an attempt to exclude Jewish neighborhood issues from public schooling, arguing that native Jewish organizations are white and highly effective.
Their efforts to marginalize the Holocaust Middle for Humanity are proof that Holocaust schooling is a good suggestion.
