Disturbing Quotes:
From Tom DeWeese:
"The International Baccalaureate Program (IB) created by the United Nations Economic, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) in now in more than 500 American public schools and the federal Department of Education is helping to fund it. UNESCO says, "the program remains committed to changing children’s values so they think globally, rather than in parochial national terms from their own country’s viewpoint."
The IB curriculum achieves that goal, says UNESCO, by promoting human rights, social justice, sustainable development, population, health, environmental, and immigration concerns. This is not education, rather it’s propaganda for a certain political agenda."
A little over a year ago, the U.S. Department of Education awarded $1.2 million in grants to expand the International Baccalaureate (IB) Program in middle schools in Arizona, Massachusetts and New York. And according to Henry Lamb (chairman of Sovereignty International), the IB's director-general in Geneva, Switzerland, George Walker, has indicated that "the program remains committed to changing children's values so they can think globally, rather than in parochial national terms from their own country's viewpoint." Interestingly, the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) has been promoted by World Goodwill (a service activity of Lucis Trust, formerly Lucifer Publishing) in its 1999, no.4, newsletter headlined "The Heart of Education."
