Leftist California group pushes to add ‘Black English’ to schools’ multilingual education program

July 8, 2026 11:24am EDT / Fox News

BlackECE’s 10-point framework calls for reparations amid its push to expand multilingual program to include Black dialect

By Peter D’Abrosca Fox News

A group of radical left-wing groups in California are pushing for schools to add Black vernacular into a Golden State program that pushes multilingualism for kids.

Black Californians United for Early Care and Education (BlackECE) is a “collaborative partnership of organizations committed to advancing language justice for Black children in early childhood education.” Those groups include Californians Together, Catalyst California and Early Edge.

A co-founder of the umbrella group said she was teased a kid for “talking white” and doesn’t want Black children, like her son, to feel “shame” for the way they speak.

“The workgroup brings together BlackECE, Californians Together, Catalyst California, and Early Edge to challenge harmful language hierarchies and affirm Black English as a legitimate, rule-governed language rooted in Black history, culture, and community,” according to the coalition’s website.

BlackECE’s 10-point policy framework also includes reparations.

Ashley Williams, a co-founder of the BlackECE, spoke with PBS about the importance of the group’s work.

“I don’t want my son to walk into any room and feel like his voice is not valued or his perspective can’t be heard because he’s not saying it in one way or the other,” she told the outlet. “But with that comes a lot of shame and embarrassment because you’re being constantly corrected when you’re still in a moment when you’re just learning language.”

“Black English” is a broad term used to describe the way African Americans speak, according to ScienceDirect.

The most common defined form of “Black English” is African American Vernacular English [AAVE], characterized as a “systematic dialect spoken by many African Americans, characterized by specific phonological, syntactical, and lexical features, including word-final consonant cluster simplification, invariant ‘be’ for habitual meaning, and multiple negation.”

Instead the groups want the board to cut school police funding.(Myung J. Chun / Los Angeles Times via Getty Images)

BlackECE insists that the dialect is not slang or broken English, and provides some real life examples of AAVE.

“She be working,” is one example listed on the website.

“They happy” and “bes’ friend” are among others.

“We talk about multilinguals, but we don’t include Black children who may be African-American English speakers,” Xigrid Soto-Boykin, an early childhood language expert at Arizona State University, told PBS. “We completely miss this subgroup of children that could also benefit from their language backgrounds to be sustained, but also to be leveraged for their own learning.”

NEW YORK TIMES CALLS UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA’S ‘TEST-BLIND’ ADMISSIONS POLICY A ‘TERRIBLE’ MISTAKE

California — a state where more than half of children under the age of five live in homes where another language besides English is spoken — implemented a program called “Promoting Equitable Early Learning and Care For Dual Language Learners” in 2020.

The program “declares biliteracy as a state goal and strongly promotes multilingual proficiency for all children, beginning in early childhood.” It focuses on policies that “reflect a dramatic shift in public sentiment away from a focus on English only and to a focus that values bilingualism as an asset and a strength.”

BlackECE says “Black English” should be added to that California program.

Williams recalled being teased for “talking white” by family members, and complained that her teachers were “adamant about proper English,” which she said made her feel insecure.

“Really at the heart of this, it’s about affirming our identity and our culture and our humanity and not having to perform as something you’re not just to be accepted in a room,” she reportedly said.

“We know that with being deemed multilingual learners, there’s resources, there’s supports, there’s teacher training. And we’re saying, ‘Yes, and we belong in that conversation too.’

‘Squad’ member calls DHS ‘greatest threat to our safety’ after ICE-involved shooting

July 8, 2026 11:02am EDT / Fox News

DHS says Lorenzo Salgado Araujo tried to run over a federal agent before being fatally shot

By Adam Pack, Fox News

NEW You can now listen to Fox News articles!

One leftist lawmaker is ramping up her attacks on the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) after an immigration officer fatally shot an illegal alien during an enforcement operation in Houston on Tuesday.

Rep. Delia Ramirez, D-Ill., declared DHS the “greatest threat to our safety” in a social media post, arguing that Mexican national Lorenzo Salgado Araujo, who allegedly resisted arrest during an attempted traffic stop, was the agency’s latest victim.

DHS said Salgado Araujo was shot in self-defense after he allegedly attempted to run over a federal agent with his vehicle, prompting the officer to open fire.

“The greatest threat to our safety is DHS,” Ramirez, a Chicago-based lawmaker who has called for the abolition of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), wrote Tuesday. “CBP and ICE continue to violently attack our neighbors and trample the rights of our residents.”

ICE SAYS OFFICER SHOT AND KILLED ILLEGAL IMMIGRANT WHO TRIED TO RAM HIM WITH CAR IN HOUSTON

Democrats have recently taken a hard line against DHS — a sprawling agency that oversees everything from the Secret Service to the Coast Guard and TSA — over its immigration enforcement and border security functions.

Top Democrats refused to fund the department earlier this year following the Trump administration’s controversial Minneapolis immigration enforcement surge that led to the killing of two Americans by federal officers.

The party’s hardball tactics led to the longest partial government shutdown in history and later prompted Republicans to pass a second “big beautiful bill” that funded ICE and CBP for the rest of President Donald Trump’s term.

Ramirez did not mention DHS’ statement that Salgado Araujo allegedly evaded arrest while federal authorities attempted to pull him over or that he was not authorized to be in the country.

“From information we are receiving, he rammed an ICE law enforcement vehicle, refused to follow multiple verbal commands, and weaponized his vehicle in an attempt to run over an ICE law enforcement officer, resulting in our officer firing his weapon in self-defense,” DHS wrote in a statement.

“The driver was struck, and emergency services were immediately contacted,” the department continued. “The driver was transported to the hospital where he passed away from his injuries.”

ILLEGAL ALIEN ON THE RUN AFTER ALLEGEDLY RAMMING ICE VEHICLE IN PENNSYLVANIA, PROMPTING AGENT TO FIRE WEAPON

A spokesperson for Ramirez did not immediately respond to a request for comment on DHS’s account.

DHS said the department’s Office of Inspector General is probing the shooting. The FBI’s Houston Office launched a separate investigation into the “potential assault” of the ICE officer, according to DHS’ statement.

Rep. Sylvia Garcia, D-Texas, who represents the Magnolia Park neighborhood where Salgado Araujo was shot, issued a more measured statement.

“ICE has released an initial account, but the facts must be independently and thoroughly investigated, including the circumstances that led to the use of deadly force,” Garcia wrote on social media. “All available footage, communications, and other evidence should be preserved and reviewed as part of a full and impartial investigation.”

Ramirez, who is associated with the far-left cohort known as the “Squad,” also called on the Republican-controlled House to pass her Melt ICE Act, which would effectively defund the agency while laying out a timeline to shutter all immigration detention facilities and releasing detained illegal aliens.

The legislation is sponsored by fellow “Squad” members, Reps. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., Summer Lee, D-Pa., Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., and Ilhan Omar, D-Minn. It has no clear path to passage amid widespread opposition from Republicans and likely from some Democrats.

Ramirez’s ICE abolition advocacy comes as she has not commented on a spate of illegal aliens with criminal backgrounds who were arrested in her home state of Illinois in June.

Federal agents recently arrested Venezuelan national Mercedes Moreno Occhipinti, who allegedly assisted in a 2024 mass shooting involving Tren de Aragua members at a house party in Chicago.

Last month, authorities also detained Noe Moreno-Salazar, an illegal alien from Mexico, in St. Charles, Ill. He was previously convicted of sexual abuse and aggravated unlawful use of a loaded weapon, among other offenses, according to DHS.

Ramirez also did not appear to comment on the March killing of 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman by a Venezuelan illegal alien in Chicago — an incident that sparked outrage over the perpetrator’s previous arrest.

Fox News Digital reached out to DHS for comment.

Nolan Wells’ family demands answers after missing teen found dead on Mississippi island

2026-07-08 11:27:23 EDT / CBS/AP

The family of Nolan Wells, a teenager found dead on an island off Mississippi after he had been missing for days, is seeking answers about the circumstances surrounding his death. They have retained civil rights attorney Ben Crump.

Wells, 18, was last seen on July 4 on Horn Island, where he had taken a boat trip with friends to celebrate the holiday, officials said. His body was discovered Monday off the coast of the island, following a search that involved multiple local, state and federal agencies, including the U.S. Coast Guard, the Mississippi Department of Marine Resources and the National Park Service.

Dental records confirmed the body was Wells, Jackson County coroner Bruce Lynd told CBS News. An autopsy took place Tuesday, Lynd said, but the results were not immediately made public.

In a statement released Tuesday, Crump said the family is searching for answers about the events leading up to Wells’ death.

“Nolan Wells was a beloved son, teammate and friend who went out to celebrate the Fourth of July and never came home. His family deserves answers. They deserve the truth,” Crump said. “We will not rest until every fact about what happened to Nolan on Horn Island is brought into the light, and we call on investigators to pursue this case with the urgency and transparency this family deserves.”

Crump was also recently retained by the family of a Mississippi 1-year-old who was killed when police fired into a moving car.

Jackson County Sheriff John Ledbetter said Wells traveled to Horn Island by boat with his friends on Saturday but did not return to the mainland with them that afternoon. He was last seen on the island at 3 p.m., according to Crump’s office. His mother reported Wells missing later that night.

Ledbetter told The Associated Press that Wells’ friends were cooperating with the investigation.

“From the people we’ve talked to, it sounds like he chose to stay on the island with the assumption that he was going to ride back to the mainland with someone else,” he said.

Wells, who would have turned 19 next month, attended Southwest Mississippi Community College, where he played wide receiver on the football team.

In a social media post, his mother, Christine Wonsley, said the family is seeking videos and other documentation from the island.

“My heart is broken for our sweet son who was always willing to cheer and uplift others,” she said. “Nolan was a special soul, God took his time creating our son.”

The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office also has asked members of the public to come forward if they saw Wells or had any interactions with him on or near Horn Island around the time of his disappearance. The office said investigators are looking for “original, unedited photos and videos taken on the northwest tip of Horn Island,” where Wells’ body was found, “particularly those depicting alleged altercations or containing images of, or believed to include Nolan Wells.”

They asked people who may have “observed or heard an argument, disturbance, or other unusual activity while on the island that day” to contact the office, too.

Ledbetter previously told CBS News that investigators were hoping to identify the original poster of a https://www.instagram.com/reel/Dadt2WrBZVL/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet in which arguing can be heard in the background.

Brian Trascher, the national vice president of the United Cajun Navy, a volunteer organization that assisted with the search for Wells, said he was flying a plane over Horn Island when Wells’ body was found.

“They were setting up a tactical operation center or command post on the beach,” he said. “Shortly after, I started getting texts from my guys on the ground that they recovered who they believed to be Nolan.”

韩国年轻士兵“负债退伍”现象加剧引关注

2026年7月8日 20:41 / 联合早报 姜贵瑛 首尔通讯员

数据显示，韩国官兵债务调整金额已从2021年的56亿韩元（约479万新元）增至去年的102亿韩元（约872万新元），四年间几乎翻倍。 （示意图 / Pixabay）

近年来，随着韩国士兵待遇改善、军营全面开放智能手机使用及线上贷款日益便利，不少20岁出头的青年在服役期间便负债累累，甚至因沉迷网络赌博而债台高筑。现役军人“负债退伍”现象日益普遍，成为军方和金融监管部门关注的新问题。

韩国《朝鲜日报》星期三（7月8日）报道，过去10年间，韩国兵长（义务兵最高军衔）月薪由2017年的21万6000韩元（约184新元）提高至今年的150万韩元（约1280新元），增幅近七倍。工资上涨原本旨在改善官兵待遇、帮助青年积累退伍资金，却意外让军人成为贷款机构重点争取的客户。

数据显示，韩国官兵债务调整金额已从2021年的56亿韩元（约479万新元）增至去年的102亿韩元（约872万新元），四年间几乎翻倍。

截至去年底，韩国前30家贷款公司的军人信用贷款余额达444亿韩元（约3800万新元），其中现役义务兵贷款余额为242亿韩元（约2071万新元），占54.5%，其余则为职业军人贷款。

金融监督院金融教育企划组组长许秀晶指出，稳定发放的军人薪资成为贷款机构评估还款能力的重要依据，使不少士兵能够轻易获得贷款。过去不少青年是背着学费贷款入伍，如今却越来越多人“负债退伍”。

记者向一家贷款公司咨询，对方说，入伍满三个月即可申请最高1000万韩元（约8556新元）贷款，年利率高达20%，已达到韩国法定上限。目前，各类面向军人的贷款产品在手机应用上随处可见，现役军人仅凭工资流水便可申请高息贷款。

网络赌博也成为军人债务恶化的重要推手。数据显示，2020年至2024年，韩国军队共发生4万7357起违反手机使用规定事件，其中涉及网络赌博1612起，占3.4%。

金融监督院院长李粲珍8日前往陆军第二作战司令部，为250名官兵开展金融教育，提醒官兵远离赌博和高息贷款，合理管理薪资。他还警告，类似Netflix韩剧《铁拳教育》中描绘的赌博与非法高利贷交织的现象，如今已开始出现在军队。

一名50多岁母亲告诉《朝鲜日报》，她儿子休假时坦承在服役期间沉迷网络赌博，欠下2500万韩元（约2万1400新元）债务，令她难以接受，“儿子当然有错，但怎么会有人愿意借这么多钱给一个20岁出头的年轻人？”

据了解，目前韩国义务兵的服役期为18个月。为遏制军人过度借贷，韩国金融当局正研究限制贷款公司向现役军人发放信用贷款。

Denmark vows to defend Greenland after Trump reiterates US should control territory

Denmark PM ‘ready to defend every inch of NATO’: Greenland ‘not for sale’

Trump slams allies over Iran, Greenland at NATO summit

During the NATO summit in Turkey, President Donald Trump vocalizes his disappointment with allied NATO countries, stating they haven’t adequately supported the U.S. He discusses the recent air strikes against Iran, clarifying the U.S. didn’t require assistance, and highlights scheduled meetings with various world leaders to address global issues.

Greenland is “not for sale,” Denmark’s prime minister said Wednesday, vowing to defend the Danish territory after President Donald Trump again said the United States should control the Arctic island for NATO defense.

Denmark is “ready to defend every inch of NATO including our own territory,” Denmark’s Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen said at the NATO summit in Ankara, Turkey, adding she would call on NATO allies to honor their commitment to defend each other.

“We hope that all, including all allies, will respect the Greenland people’s right for self-determination,” she continued. “And we are sovereign states and we need everybody to respect our territorial integrity and our sovereignty.

“Greenland is of course not for sale.”

Trump continues to stress that Greenland “is very important” for the U.S. but not for Denmark, declaring, “We need it for protection of the world, not just the United States.”

Also, Denmark is coming up short in its support for Greenland, which remains a strategic target for both Russia and China.

“That’s what hurt my relationship with NATO,” Trump said Tuesday of the refusal to grant his request for annexation of the strategic land.

“Denmark doesn’t spend money to really help Greenland, but it’s an important part for the United States. And it’s surrounded by China ships and Russian ships.”

For global security, Greenland “should be controlled by the United States, not by Denmark,” Trump added.

“They wouldn’t go along with it,” Trump lamented. “And with all the money we spend to help them with Russia. And we don’t have to spend any money, we could remove all of our soldiers out of Europe because, as you probably noticed, Europe is a very different place than it was 20 years ago. A lot different.”

Greenland is a semiautonomous territory of Denmark, a NATO ally. Trump’s push for U.S. control has repeatedly angered Danish and Greenlandic officials, who have insisted the island’s future should be decided by its people.

Icelandic Prime Minister Kristrun Frostadottir also weighed in Wednesday, saying Greenland’s people “do not wish to be a part of the United States” and urging NATO leaders to stay focused on Russia.

TRUMP CALLS OUT NATO AHEAD OF SUMMIT, CALLING IT ‘RIDICULOUS’ FOR US TO PERSIST ON ‘ONE SIDED PATH’

The dispute injected a tense territorial confrontation into a summit already shaped by Trump’s demands that allies spend more on defense and take greater responsibility for Europe’s security as the U.S. shifts its focus.

NATO Secretary-General Mark Rutte sought to emphasize the alliance’s recent defense spending increases, telling Trump that European allies and Canada had made major new commitments.

“I would argue that without you in this chair, this would not have happened,” Rutte told Trump. “Grab the win. It’s there.”

Trump, however, continued criticizing allies over both Greenland and Iran, where he ordered overnight U.S. strikes after attacks on merchant ships in the Strait of Hormuz. Rutte backed the U.S. strikes, telling Trump they were “absolutely necessary.”

The NATO summit is also expected to address Ukraine’s war against Russia, with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy pressing allies for deeper support and renewed consideration of Ukraine’s bid to join the alliance.

But Trump’s comments on Greenland underscored a growing challenge for NATO leaders: projecting unity against outside threats while managing disputes inside the alliance itself.

意大利中部烟花厂发生爆炸 造成两人死亡

2026年7月8日 20:52 / 联合早报

意大利中部一家烟花厂星期三（7月8日）发生爆炸，造成两人死亡。

法新社报道，出事工厂位于罗马东北约70公里处的列蒂省（Rieti）。

Stocks slump, oil surges after Trump says Iran ceasefire is over

July 8, 2026 / 9:54 AM EDT / CBS News

Stocks tumbled in early trading on Wednesday after President Trump said the ceasefire with Iran is “over” and that it is “a waste of time dealing with them.”

Oil prices jumped 6% on concerns that a re-escalation of hostilities would jeopardize the flow of oil through the Strait of Hormuz.

Mr. Trump’s remarks come after attacks by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps on three tankers in the Strait of Hormuz, which were followed by U.S. strikes. Brent crude rose 6.3% to $78.80 a barrel, while West Texas Intermediate, the U.S. benchmark, climbed 6.4% to $75.

Before Wednesday’s spike, West Texas Intermediate had fallen below $70 a barrel, roughly returning to levels seen before the start of the Iran war in late February.

The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 479 points, or 0.9%, to 52,446. The S&P 500 declined 0.4%, and the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite slipped 0.2%.

“The ceasefire between the U.S. and Iran was always fragile, and some flare-ups were inevitable, unfortunately,” Ryan Sweet, chief global economist at investment adviser Oxford Economics, said in a report. “The question is whether this represents a bump in the road or whether we’re emerging from the eye of the storm.”

Higher oil prices could complicate the inflation outlook by raising gasoline and transportation costs, potentially prompting the Federal Reserve to keep interest rates higher for longer.

“If the peace deal breaks, and it’s too early to tell, it won’t just raise oil prices; it would also increase pressure on AI supply chains in Asia, force central banks to be hawkish, tighten financial conditions and could shift the outcome of the U.S. midterms,” Sweet said.

In another sign of renewed tensions, the Trump administration on Tuesday revoked a waiver that permitted Iranian oil sales, a key source of revenue for the regime, after attacks on tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.

The Treasury Department said that “General License X,” which was issued two weeks ago as part of an interim peace deal between the U.S. and Iran and exempted Iranian oil sales from U.S. sanctions, would be superseded by a narrower waiver.

Other Wall Street watchers expect the latest outbreak of violence to recede.

“Stocks took a dive around 4 am ET after Trump declared that the Iran ceasefire was ‘over,’ and while the current détente is certainly under strain, we continue to think the White House is extremely reluctant to escalate militarily and fully return to hostilities and therefore, a deal remains much more likely than not,” Vital Knowledge analyst Adam Crisafulli said Wednesday in a research note.

Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro, a foreign exchange trading firm, also noted that Mr. Trump has recently expressed a commitment to resolving the conflict through diplomatic means, while world energy markets have adapted to the disruption in oil supplies.

“The market has adapted to the reduction in traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, found alternative routes, and global demand has fallen,” Kuptsikevich said.
