It is worth reading Blood Brotherhood about three Mafia networks that originated in Italy. Each of these organizations compete with each other but also cooperate, stretching their deadly violence across the world from prison gangs in Sicily, Calabria and Naples into the United States and other nations. Each organization has its own rituals and legends about the founding of these criminal organizations. Nevertheless, a constant theme is banding together to protect poor families from being exploited by the rich and powerful.
Freemason Models. The problem is that the secrecy of the Mafia networks, modeled along the lines of Freemasonry, evolved into complex systems of extortion and political influence that still attract the most powerful politicians and industrialists in Italy, the United States and across Europe and other continents. Operating throughout the global economic system, such organized crime networks have long been adept at shifting allegiances and opportunistically provide support to opposing political movements.
Paulo Freire. Most people will be surprised to learn that there are similar networks infiltrating school districts across America. Schools of education invariably emphasize the work of Brazilian Socialist, Paulo Freire (first name also spelled Paolo). Freire’s most famous book, Pedagogy of the Oppressed, has influenced people working in education more than any other modern work. Freire developed an approach to education that links identification with victimhood and oppression to Progressive change. Freire’s original work was in adult literacy. Many of the most influential educators in the United States have applied Freire’s concept of preparing the young for revolutionary activism to LGBTQ activism, DEI and Social Justice standards.
Dialogue as a Revolutionary Tool. Just as members of various crime families often operate without direct control from any chain of command, teachers and school districts have a great deal of latitude when it comes to employing the “dialogical process” which generates political activism. The method of asking questions that lead students to empathize and identify with those being oppressed is intentionally integrated into all the curriculum (even the study of mathematics) with stories, questions, and discussion based on situations embedded in the narratives.
Revolutionary SEL Dialogue. So how does revolutionary theory come into the classroom and isn’t this just another conspiracy theory? Merrick Garland’s son in law operates a very profitable organization called Panorama Education. Panorama provides online videos used by many schools to promote Social Emotional Learning. SEL is based on methods pioneered by another organization called CASEL (Collaborative Academic Social & Emotional Learning). Teachers and schools collaborate with other teachers and various organizations. SEL methods are communicated from schools of education to the classrooms by seminars, symposiums and the videos which purport to help students deal with feelings and develop empathy.
Panorama Videos. Panorama’s SEL videos may be presented at the start of the school day by illustrating a story about a boy who forgot to do his homework because his parents were in a violent quarrel the night before. There are also supplemental story books that direct attention to issues of empathy and other emotions that need to be identified. The boy is late to school and throws his backpack across the classroom when everyone keeps assuming something is wrong with him. Then the boy has to go see the principal. Nobody ever asks what happened to him. With his parents quarreling at home, and repeated blame and frustration, he might start taking out his frustrations on other students and go from being a victim to being the oppressor.
Age-Appropriate Discussions Left to Teachers’ Discretion. Many teachers become adept at creating a dialogue that raises questions about current events. For example, shouldn’t we ask what happened to Palestinians instead of blaming Hamas for atrocities against Jewish people? Or even issues regarding gender and sex education. Dialogues like this are expected at the university level but not in elementary school. Discussions of White privilege, gender identity and institutional racism have no place in a public elementary school.
Alice Bailey & New Age Politics. As we peel away the layers of the educational onion, another organization exposes the roots of SEL and how the goal of creating empathy closely relates to Freire’s objective, creating political activists. The Fetzer Institute, founded by a very wealthy man who operated many radio stations, was very deeply rooted in the religious teachings of Alice Bailey and the Lucis Trust. The Lucis Trust is a United Nations recognized NGO with a Temple of Understanding ensconced within UN premises. Fetzer was successful at introducing SEL concepts across a very broad spectrum of politically influential organizations, including the United Nations
Theosophical Networks & Political Spiritualism. The teachings of Alice Bailey and the Lucis Trust, in turn, originated with the Theosophical Society, an occult religious organization that spread across Europe and into the United States by means of several networks very much like the three Mafia networks in Italy. Many of the most influential leaders from the political, financial and business worlds signed on as supporters.
Occult Practices & the New Corporate Statism. We simply call Theosophy a New Age religion today. But there has always been a political component to such New Age beliefs. It is very well documented that the Third Reich, early day Socialism and a host of movements related to Fabian Socialism in England and Progressive politics in the U.S. are rooted in New Age. Pantheistic concepts taught in schools of theology such as Union Theological Seminary are closely related to Socialist belief systems. Liberation Theology and the writings of theologians like Reinhold Niebuhr connect many churches with religion, politics and public policy.
Radical Politics Invading Churches. Frieri himself related much of his work to churches. Pope Francis and many other Jesuit leaders and educationists have been extensively invested in so-called Social Justice. Jesuit universities in nations like Argentina, the Philippines and Brazil have experienced violent political activism when Marxist Liberation Theology disguised as the Gospel is the dogma of church representatives.
Why Do Elite Capitalists Promote Anti-Capitalism? So is SEL a scam, a political operation, a religious cult or all of the above? The United Nations allegedly advocates the SEL methods. As does the World Economic Forum, the Rockefeller Foundation and other tax-exempt foundations. Which brings us to the question of why the WEF, Bill and Malinda Gates Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation, Ford Foundation, universities like Yale, Harvard and the University of Illinois all seem to be busy injecting variations of DEI into schools.
Critical Race Theory, Neo-Marxist identity politics & LGBTQ in schools? Notwithstanding the difficulty of proving such allegations, the Law Office of Mark Knapp PLLC is litigating many of these issues in federal court. We expect to post updates as we get further into the discovery process.
The Complaint in James Payne vs Highline School District, references a 2006 SCOTUS decision entitled “Garcetti v. Ceballos,” where Justice Kennedy wrote:
“When public employees make statements pursuant to their official duties, the employees are not speaking as citizens for First Amendment purposes, and the Constitution does not insulate their communications from employer discipline.”

Another big concern is the allegation that Panorama Education is data-mining the psychology of students in order to provide narratives that use feelings of empathy to shape future generations’ perceptions of public policy choices.
When we ask teachers about why they believe posters representing political agenda favored by the WEA and NEA are appropriate in classrooms the teachers say they want to make minorities feel safe by displaying Black Lives Matter & LGBTQ posters. The teacher’s unions actually publish such posters and make them available to teachers. The school districts and the union claim that First Amendment free speech protections apply in the classrooms and there seem to be no administrative policies that provide guidance as to what constitutes political advocacy in the schools.
The Wretched of the Earth. Paolo Friere’s works recognize the Leftist violence against the French colonial regime in Algeria and acknowledge that Franz Fanon’s Wretched of the Earth inspired the Pedagogy of the Oppressed. Perhaps this is why teachers are posting the image of Che Guevara in classrooms right long with Black Lives Matter and LGBTQ? Most teachers to whom we have spoken seem to have little understanding that BLM has an agenda that goes far beyond making Black people feel safe. BLM sees our U.S. free enterprise system as the cause of racism, sexism, genderism and violence against minorities. Local police agencies are perceived as tools of oppressive economic, psychological and physical violence against minority people. None of this is likely to show up in the curriculum but Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) policies exist at the federal, state and local levels in Washington and other states that mandate efforts to inject DEI into school programs and curriculum. Districts looking for a way to introduce Social Justice into the classroom naturally turn to Panorama.
What is the Pritzker Role in Coopting Education? The Pritzker family is allegedly a source of funding for LGBTQ advocacy especially in regard to gender transitions for children. Pritzker pharmaceuticals administered to change a child’s gender attributes cause irrevocable damage to a child’s development. Most people don’t realize, however, that a vast network of clinics have sprung up that perform surgery on children. Many of these clinics are operated by Pritzker controlled interests and produce huge revenues. This phenomenon is reminiscent of how the pharmaceutical industry previously lobbied the American Psychiatric Association to get ADD and ADHD incorporated into the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders. This led to states like Illinois allegedly providing financial incentives to school districts referring students to psychiatrists who prescribe Ritalin and other amphetamine like substances.
Education & Political Activism. Many of Freire’s writings include juxtaposing “banking” education (in which facts are deposited into the minds of passive students) and the notion of consciousness raising. This may account for the fact that school districts that invest in SEL and endorse DEI educate students that tend to perform dismally on standardized academic tests. The Progressive definition of education focuses on the process of critical thinking, empathy and recognizing that students should be actively engaged and affirmed in creating the person each individual student wants to be.
Davos: Where the Mafias Meet. This high sounding rhetoric begs the question of why the denizens of Davos, the international bankers that manage the International Monetary Fund and include the highest echelons of the most elite capitalists in the world are spending vast sums of money to commandeer our schools. These are the same people who have historically endorsed Eugenics (engineering the gene pool by controlling reproduction), “Anglo-Saxon” values (White Supremacy), and colonial economic policies under the guise of shouldering the White Man’s burden.
The Usual Suspects. The fact that the Rockefeller Foundation and all the usual suspects think kindergartners need to feel safe in their supposed Queer, Lesbian, Bisexual or Transgender identities raises the issue of whether the oppressors are using the rhetoric of Liberation to foster a Brave New World belief system. The WEF has made it clear that the goal is to replace traditional family life with a tyranny that divides populations by race and class and undermines the sovereignty of nation states by environmental activism, dumbing down education, encouraging unrestricted immigration and undermining traditional morality
Become An Activist. Find out what is happening in your children’s school. Attend School Board meetings and ask questions. As Freire himself would say, “Don’t be a passive object on whom others exercise power.” You can see through vague, high sounding phrases like empathy and equity and assert you rights as a parent, a grandparent or as a concerned citizen. During the process you can become a true activist and stand against people like Julian Huxley.
Julian Huxley. Huxley was an advocate of Eugenics who headed up the religious department at UNESCO. He advocated on behalf of the United Nations’ religious outreach. The UN’s creed is still to usher in a new world religion that rejects the Theistic premise of Judeo-Christian morality revealed on Mount Sinai. Our schools and educational systems are now the High Places where Huxley’s “Religion Without Revelation” prevails. Most of the methods and concepts discussed above fly under the radar and rarely are proclaimed publicly. The process of recognizing oppression occurs over time as you get involved in the struggle.
