I used to watch Fox News all the time. Tonight for instance, with the elections in Virigina and New Jersey, I would have watched Fox News tonight to follow the results. But after what they pulled last year, I have no use them. Juan Williams is a perfect example why. You see, according to the race hustler, if you dare defend parents’ rights, then you are using a racist dog whistler, ‘Code for white race politics’. Fuck you Juan.
Fox News political analyst Juan Williams claimed in a new essay that defending parents’ rights is meant to sow racial division while masquerading “as a defense of little children.”
Parents’ rights have become a prominent issue in recent months as parents nationwide dispute a number of issues impacting schools, including COVID-related restrictions, radical LGBT policies, and certain teachings on race.
But according to Williams, defending parents’ rights — which became a prominent issue in the Virginia gubernatorial race — is a racist dog whistle, or as the headline of his recent essay at The Hill claims, “code for white race politics.”
“It is a campaign to stop classroom discussion of Black Lives Matter protests or slavery because it could upset some children, especially white children who might feel guilt,” Williams wrote.
By making parents’ rights a prominent issues, Williams charged that “Trump-imitating Republican” have struck “political gold.”
Without evidence, Williams directly connected concerns over parents’ rights to defending Confederate monuments, the 2017 Charlottesville riots, the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol, and segregation.

“There is a long history behind the latest racist political appeals. It is not long ago that racist southern politicians rallied against integration with an argument for ‘states’ rights,’ a call to be free of federal laws seeking to end segregation,” Williams wrote. “Now the message is that white parents are being ignored when they complain that their children are uncomfortable learning about racism.”
