The School District of Philadelphia’s social studies curriculum contains no mention of Israel, a Palestinian state, or even the broader Middle East, but this hasn’t stopped a cohort of local educational professionals from inserting the topic into classrooms anyway.

In June, the Free Press obtained a copy of Philadelphia’s history and social studies curriculum. While the document contained reams of left-wing content, such as an assignment asking students to “replace” the national anthem after “critically examining race and racism,” mentions of the Palestinian conflict were conspicuously absent.
