Ariz. lawmakers target ethnic studies program
By JONATHAN J. COOPER (AP) – 22 hours agohttp://www.google.com/hostednews…
PHOENIX — A week after signing an immigration bill that has drawn ire and praise from people around the country, Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer has another bill on her desk targeting classes that the state schools chief says promote "ethnic chauvinism."
The measure targets an ethnic studies program from a Tucson school district. It would prohibit classes that advocate ethnic solidarity, that are designed primarily for students of a particular race or that promote resentment toward a certain ethnic group.
