"Parents Defending Education (PDE) presents itself as 'a national grassroots organization working to reclaim our schools from activists imposing harmful agendas'—namely 'ideologically driven curriculum with a concerning and often divisive emphasis on students’ group identities: race, ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation and gender.' But the group took hundreds of thousands of dollars from dark money groups and funds associated with influential conservatives who advocate for the privatization of public education."
