Americans Who Practice Yoga Contribute to White Supremacy, MSU Professor Claims

So this type of attitude is what happens when a person is subjected to the indoctrination happening in colleges?

What she is saying is that if you won't improve your own self, try to bring others down to your level.

It no longer exists here.
This place was taken over a long time ago by Communists.

This is what your children are being taught in public school systems across the country. When are parents going to get involved to the point of turning the system around?
