Apparently, email filters caught the explicit words in our prior email and wouldn't deliver it to some of you. How ironic... it isn't appropriate for our Senators, Representatives, and the Governor to read, but it is okay for our high school students because the Common Core authors put it on their approved list.
We have edited the excerpts even more. You'll have to figure out the adult language on your own.

Thank you to those who replied to our email about the inappropriate Common Core text exemplar, "Dreaming in Cuban." Your shock, disgust, and disbelief mirrors our own that it was included on the official Common Core list of approved literature for students.
You should know that it is not an isolated example. The next book we are about to tell you about is much worse.
Imagine how a pedophile feels as he molests an innocent child...
***WARNING*** (Pornographic information below)
Pages 162-163: “A bolt of desire ran down his ge*****s…and softening the lips of his a***. . . . He wanted to f*** her—tenderly. But the tenderness would not hold. The tightness of her va**** was more than he could bear. His soul seemed to slip down his guts and fly out into her, and the gigantic thrust he made into her then provoked the only sound she made. Removing himself from her was so painful to him he cut it short and snatched his ge****** out of the dry harbor of her va****. She appeared to have fainted.”
Page 174: “He further limited his interests to little girls. They were usually manageable . . . His se*uality was anything but lewd; his patronage of little girls smacked of innocence and was associated in his mind with cleanliness.” And later, this same ped****le notes, “I work only through the Lord. He sometimes uses me to help people.”
Page 181: “The little girls are the only things I’ll miss. Do you know that when I touched their sturdy little t*** and bit them—just a little—I felt I was being friendly?—If I’d been hurting them, would they have come back? . . . they’d eat ice cream with their legs open while I played with them. It was like a party.”
Pages 84-85: “He must enter her surreptitiously, lifting the hem of her nightgown only to her navel. He must rest his weight on his elbows when they make love, to avoid hurting her b*****s…When she senses some spasm about to grip him, she will make rapid movements with her hips, press her fingernails into his back, suck in her breath, and pretend she is having an org***. She might wonder again, for the six hundredth time, what it would be like to have that feeling while her husband’s p***s is inside her.”
The above exerpts are from "The Bluest Eye" by Toni Morrison. It is listed as an approved book on the same Official Common Core Text Exemplars list as "Dreaming in Cuban". (Click HERE to see for yourself that it really is on p.152 of the official Common Core list published by the architects of Common Core)
We know you've been told this by Common Core supporters:
"Common Core isn't curriculum. Common Core is only standards."
Blame the curriculum.
Blame the curriculum.
Blame the curriculum.
Q: Who published this list of inappropriate books?
A: The same people who wrote the Common Core standards.
Q: Who wrote the Common Core standards?
A: Businessmen from textbook and testing companies wrote the standards (they're writing the curriculum, too).
THE BIG QUESTION:
If those people didn't have the common sense not to include these 2 inappropriate books on a list of 19 books recommended as appropriate for high school juniors to read as fictional literature (when there are hundreds of thousands of other wonderful books in the world to select from) how can anyone trust their judgement with writing the standards for every child in our state???
This is what the Common Core architects have to say about their list of appropriate Common Core aligned books (p.2 of their list):
"The following text samples primarily serve to exemplify the level of complexity andquality that the Standards require all students in a given grade band to engage with. Additionally, they are suggestive of the breadth of texts that students should encounter in the text types required by the Standards. The choices should serve as useful guideposts in helping educators select texts of similar complexity, quality, and range for their own classrooms." [emphasis added]
The textbook & testing industry is monopolized by one company: Pearson. Click HERE to read a very informative Momma Bear blog on "Pear$on in the U$A." You'll see how Pearson has used its money to influence politicians and laws. They are making a fortune off of Common Core with our tax dollars.
Sick, yet??? Tennessee parents are.
