Oklahoma attorney general sues to stop US's first public religious school_我的网站

杨澜访谈录

一 | Oklahoma's Republican Attorney General Gentner Drummond on Friday sued to stop a state board from establishing and funding what would be the nation's first religious public charter school after the board ignored Drummond's warning that it would violate both the state and U.S. constitutions.Drummond filed the lawsuit with the Oklahoma Supreme Court against the Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board after three of the board's members this week signed a contract for the St. Isidore of Seville Catholic Virtual Charter School, which is sponsored by the Archdiocese of Oklahoma City.“Make no mistake, if the Catholic Church were permitted to have a public virtual charter school, a reckoning will follow in which this state will be faced with the unprecedented quandary of processing requests to directly fund all petitioning sectarian groups,” the lawsuit states.The school board voted 3-2 in June to approve the Catholic Archdiocese's application to establish the online public charter school, which would be open to students across the state in kindergarten through grade 12. In its application, the Archdiocese said its vision is that the school “participates in the evangelizing mission of the Church and is the privileged environment in which Christian education is carried out.”The approval of a publicly funded religious school is the latest in a series of actions taken by conservative-led states that include efforts to teach the Bible in public schools, and to ban books and lessons about race, sexual orientation and gender identity.Oklahoma's Constitution specifically prohibits the use of public money or property from being used, directly or indirectly, for the use or benefit of any church or system of religion. Nearly 60% of Oklahoma voters rejected a proposal in 2016 to remove that language from the Constitution.A message left Friday with Rebecca Wilkinson, the executive director of the Oklahoma Statewide Virtual Charter School Board, was not immediately returned, although Wilkinson has said previously she wouldn't comment on pending litigation.A group of Oklahoma parents, faith leaders and a public education nonprofit already filed a lawsuit in district court in July seeking to stop St. Isidore from operating as a charter school in Oklahoma. That case is pending.Oklahoma's Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, who earlier this year signed a bill that would give parents public funds to send their children to private schools, including religious schools, criticized Drummond's lawsuit as a “political stunt.”“AG Drummond seems to lack any firm grasp on the constitutional principle of religious freedom and masks his disdain for the Catholics’ pursuit by obsessing over non-existent schools that don’t neatly align with his religious preference," Stitt said in a statement.Drummond defeated Stitt's hand-picked attorney general in last year's GOP primary and the two Republicans have clashed over Stitt's hostile position toward many Native American tribes in the state.The AG's lawsuit also suggests that the board's vote could put at risk more than $1 billion in federal education dollars that Oklahoma receives that require the state to comply with federal laws that prohibit a publicly funded religious school.“Not only is this an irreparable violation of our individual religious liberty, but it is an unthinkable waste of our tax dollars,” Drummond said in a statement.The National Alliance for Public Charter Schools, a nonprofit organization that supports the public charter school movement, released a statement Friday in support of Drummond's challenge.。

7月29日晚间，2026世界斯诺克上海大师赛1/8决赛上演中国德比。赵心童以6比2击败丁俊晖，再度赢下“丁赵决”挺进八强，下一轮他将迎战澳大利亚名将尼尔·罗伯逊。硝烟散尽，比分定格的背后，丁俊晖一番坦诚的心声，裹挟着岁月的感伤，令人动容。赵心童（左）与丁俊晖本场比赛节奏完全掌握在赵心童手中。前5局，年轻的后辈火力全开，接连打出三杆50+，随后送上连续两杆破百，建立起5比0的巨大优势。陷入被动的丁俊晖没有就此沉寂，及时找回进攻手感连续反击。第6局、第7局他接连轰出破百，并尝试向着147满分杆发起冲击，可惜未能如愿。

二 | 随着赵心童凭借单杆101分拿下第8局，比赛尘埃落定。

三 | 赛后新闻发布会，冲击满分杆的遗憾，成为第一个话题。面对记者提问，丁俊晖复盘这杆进攻，“非常想打出一杆147。从上手拿到第一杆机会开始，球形其实很理想，我全程都朝着147的方向去进攻。今天进入状态起步偏晚，但客观来讲，小童发挥得更好。

四 | ”丁俊晖在比赛中当话题转向不断崛起的中国新生代力量，作为中国斯诺克拓荒者，丁俊晖的语气平和而欣慰，“确实感受不一样。无论是本土赛事还是国际赛场，能看到多场中国德比出现，意味着我们整体实力正在提升。像赵心童、吴宜泽连续斩获世锦赛冠军，还有常冰玉发挥亮眼，雷佩凡拿下苏格兰公开赛冠军，这批年轻人正在稳步成长。未来大家会见到更多中国的世界冠军、更多的中国德比对决。

五 | ”现场一位小记者的提问，戳中丁俊晖最柔软的地方。上海大师赛走过二十年，丁俊晖是唯一全程参与的中国球员，跨越二十载赛场征程，如今的自己和当年最大的变化是什么？丁俊晖的回答带着一丝难以言说的怅然，“可能在场上打不过之前的自己，相比从前，我的想法更加成熟。如今参加赛事，不会再把全部情绪都倾注在自身胜负上，会更多关注其他球员的训练与赛场表现。我不单单只想打好自己的比赛，也希望把多年积累的赛场经验分享出去，给想要提升实力的年轻选手提供力所能及的帮助。

六 | ”赵心童在比赛中这番话，道尽老将与时间博弈的无奈。曾经，胜利是球台之上唯一的追求；如今，胜负的重量慢慢减轻，传承成为他新的期许。连续两年上海大师赛上演丁俊晖与赵心童的中国德比，球迷热议不断。被问及在众多年轻选手当中最期待与谁交手，丁俊晖淡然一笑，“我们都快打成全国比赛了，任何对阵都有看点，最重要的是每名选手自身的竞技水准。能看到赵心童这样的球员打出精彩的比赛，也是球迷乐于见到的画面。”展望新赛季后续赛程与个人状态，丁俊晖没有回避现实，“最佳状态，肯定达不到巅峰时期的水准。我一直在努力调整，争取发挥更加稳定。我尝试各种办法，力求在比赛当中打得更加稳健。但有时候身体状态不受自己掌控，一些失误球，我自己都想不到偏差会这么大，这也是我和年轻时最大的区别。只要报名参加的赛事，我都会全力以赴，至于最终能打出怎样的水准，顺其自然。”丁俊晖在比赛中没有人永远站在巅峰，竞技体育最动人也最残酷的命题，便是与岁月对抗。
