Marc Cox joins the show to give his assessment of the School Board Elections that took place across Missouri yesterday. Cox shares what he believes to be the best part of the elections, even if the results weren't all that he hoped for. 

Over the last two years, parents of public school kids across America woke up and had the time to pull back the curtain and actually see what was going on in their kids' classrooms.  Many of these parents knew something was 'off'.  The more they dug into these issues, the uglier things were.  Sleeping parents finally decided to get involved, took action, demanded accountability from their local schools and their boards and have now stepped up to bring conservative, common-sense values back to public education.  Daryn and Randy interview Jessica Clark, a no nonsense conservative school-board candidate in the Rockwood School District in Eureka Missouri bring the heat.  She's one strong momma bear fighting for your kids!  Keep up with Jessica at https://www.jessica4rockwood.comhttps://www.facebook.com/jessicafromstlhttps://instagram.com/sheisjessicalaurent...Also tune into her show on Real Talk 93.3-------------------------------------SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS FOR THIS SHOWGet accurate, honest and true news by reading The Epoch Times.   Visit: www.IReadEpoch.comEnter promo code GRIT and get your first month for just $1.-------------------------------------STAY IN THE LOOP AND UP TO DATEVisit Website https://patriotswithgrit.com/Help Support Patriots With Grit https://patriotswithgrit.com/donate/Recommend Patriots To Interview https://patriotswithgrit.com/recommend/Grab Some Fun Merch https://patriotswithgrit.com/shop/-------------------------------------SUBSCRIBE TO PODCASThttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/patriots-with-grit/id1615813244-------------------------------------HANG OUT WITH US ON THESE SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMSRUMBLE: https://rumble.com/c/c-1011237YOUTUBE: https://youtube.com/channel/UCPq8tmHN8_Mn1M_wHs8xYiQFACEBOOK Page: https://www.facebook.com/patriotswithgritCLOUT HUB: https://app.clouthub.com/#/users/u/PatriotsWithGrit/postsTELEGRAM: https://t.me/PatriotsWithGritLINKS TO ALL SOCIAL MEDIA: http://patriotswithgrit.com/links/-------------------------------------

For the last year, we have been surrounded by debates on Critical Race Theory spurred by the Right's organized, widespread campaign to stifle anti-racist education. For all of this debate, though, we hardly ever get to hear from the teachers, administrators, and students who are the subjects of these vicious attacks, and who are risking it all in defense of educational integrity and truth-telling.  On today's episode, Kimberlé presents a conversation from the African American Policy Forum's Under the Blacklight series, where an incredible line up of brave educators, students, advocates and activists gathered to share their stories from the frontlines. Moderated by Sumi Cho, the roundtable conversation shines a spotlight on the experiences of educators who have been victimized by the draconian legislative campaigns to prevent K-12 teachings about the realities of race and gender based oppression in the United States, past and present.

He now works in mental health and diversity within his community and is here to talk about unity and the true you.   KEY TAKEAWAYS I help people unlock the aspects of their potential that's within them to then express it to the world. There are no coincidences in life, there's only one big difference between illness and wellness: When we remove the ‘I' from illness and replace it with ‘we' we remove illness and replace it with wellness. Internal unity is D.R.I.V.E. – Drive, Relationships (Rapport), Insight, Volition, Engagement. External unity is what love looks like in public. That's the ‘U' in unity. That helps communities become vibrant. We all are given problems in life, and they can sometimes be our greatest gifts because they build our character and forge who we are. And, if we can master that, we can flourish.   BEST MOMENTS ‘I've dedicated my life to seeing souls first and staff/students/stakeholders second.' ‘The community helped make me and shape me into who I am.' ‘External equity is meeting the need at the speed of the need.' ‘The longest journey most people will ever make is the 16 inches between their brain and their heart.'   VALUABLE RESOURCES Paul's Story: Emerging From The Forest (UK): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Emerging-Forest-Pain-Purpose-Mastering/dp/1719373272 Paul's Story: Emerging From The Forest (USA): https://www.amazon.com/Emerging-Forest-Pain-Purpose-Mastering/dp/1719373272 Mastering The Game Of Life Book (UK): https://www.amazon.co.uk/Mastering-Game-Life-Paul-Lowe/dp/1782227679 Mastering The Game Of Life Book (USA): https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Game-Life-Paul-Lowe/dp/1782227679 Speaking From Our Hearts Books: Volumes 1-3 (Available on Amazon) World Game-Changers Group   ABOUT THE GUEST Art McCoy, Ph.D., began his career as a trailblazing mathematics teacher in the Rockwood School District after graduating Magna Cum Laude with a bachelors at age 19, reportedly as the youngest certified teacher in Missouri.  After earning his Master's in Education, he served as a principal from age 22 to 25.
