This a local Indivisible event! On December 2, 2025, U.S. Secretary of Education Linda McMahon announced the kickoff of the national “History Rocks!” tour. Her first three stops were at schools in Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware. The New Jersey stop took place at Cedar Drive Middle School in Colts Neck. According to the Department of Education, “The History Rocks! initiative is a key component of the U.S. Department of Education’s America 250 celebrations, coordinated with the America 250 Civics Education Coalition, a national partnership with the America First Policy Institute, Turning Point USA, Hillsdale College, and more than 50 national and state organizations.” Additional organizations involved include Moms for Liberty and PragerU. One of the stated goals of the coalition is to advance a “shared understanding of America’s founding principles in schools across the nation.” In practice, this means groups like Turning Point USA, Moms for Liberty, and Hillsdale College will be shaping history curriculum in ways that will whitewash the past and politically indoctrinate our students—not only in Colts Neck and New Jersey, but nationwide. As promoters of democracy and believers in teaching children the full American story—its triumphs and its struggles—while encouraging students to ask tough questions, we will be protesting outside the next Colts Neck Board of Education meeting. The CN BOE invited the Secretary and her partners into one of New Jersey’s middle schools, and the Secretary along with her partners is promoting a God-centered, whitewashed nationwide curriculum. This will not be tolerated. COME STAND WITH US! Some sign ideas- 1. No right-wing indoctrination of our kids 2. Historical Facts Matter 3. No rewriting of US History 4. TPUSA (or Heritage Foundation, Prager U, Hillsdale College)=Indoctrination (or Racism, Homophobia, Anti-semitism) Bring a flashlight or other way to illuminate your signs if possible. Wear sturdy footwear as there may not be sidewalks throughout this location. A core principle behind all Indivisible events is a commitment to nonviolent action. We expect all participants to seek to de-escalate any potential confrontation with those who disagree with our values.
