On Tuesday, December 17th, the NC General Assembly Common Core Study Committee held its first public hearing to address Common Core. I attended, as well as other activists and Tea Party leaders all across the state. Opponents of Common Core who attended were advised to dress in red to make a visual statement to the NC General Assembly of the growing movement against North Carolina’s adoption and implementation of the controversial education standards. I proudly wore an oversized red sweater and a sticker that announced my opposition to Common Core – as did so many others. Indeed, the public arena was a sea of red and opposition was palpable.
