There’s a new school board member in town, and he’s taking names. Eighty-year-old Chuck Hockema, elected Tuesday to the Lafayette Community School Board in Lafayette, Indiana won’t brook openly gay teachers, Critical Race Theory for kids, or a “woke” agenda. Hockema ran on a platform supporting the three R’s, and against 'undermining of traditional values and beliefs, promoting gender confusion, encouraging peer-to-peer sex education, violating or undermining parental rights, supporting critical race theory (CRT) or social-emotional learning (SEL) when used as a cover for divisive instruction, and promoting ‘woke’ ideology.' Hockema told the Lafayette Journal & Courier, “My reason for running for school board is because when I talked to the school board members, they would not give me an answer to the questions. And I thought, ‘Now this is some crap.’ If you can’t tell me whether you’re going to vote for CRT or you are not, you’re on my list and I’m going to find out why.” Hockema is also coming for anyone advocating a gay “ideology.” On the topic of LGBTQ+ teachers he said, “If there’s a teacher that wants to be gay, that’s OK. That’s their prerogative. I’ve hired gay people. I’ve had them work for me, but I would not allow a gay person to push his feelings and his ideology off on other employees.” #education
