Dozens of Schools Found Using Book that Says 'Whiteness' is a 'Contract with the Devil'
Dozens of schools have been caught exposing students to a book that says “whiteness” is a “contract with the devil.”
The book, entitled, “Not My Idea,” by Anastasia Higginbotham, showed up on a list of woke, anti-Christian, anti-white, and anti-American books that schools are forcing on kids.
The list of so-called “anti-racist” books was exposed by activist Chris Rufo:
Here is the full list of public school districts that are teaching "Not My Idea," which traffics in the noxious principles of race essentialism, collective guilt, and anti-whiteness.

Fox News reported on this “contract” with the devil:
The imaginary terms offer “stolen land,” “stolen riches,” and “special favors.” It adds that “WHITENESS gets” “your soul” and “to mess endlessly with the lives of your friends, neighbors, loved ones, and all fellow humans of COLOR.” The end contains a section for signature and notes “[l]and, riches, and favors may be revoked at any time, for any reason.”

“White supremacy has been lying to kids for centuries,” it reads. “White supremacy is pretend. But the consequences are real.”
Part of the book reads: “Skin color makes a difference in how the world sees you and in how you see the world” as well as “your skin color affects the most ordinary daily experiences.” Yet another reads: “Racism is a [W]hite person’s problem and we are all caught up in it.”
The controversial book is now the subject of a lawsuit in Illinois.
