  • In January 2016, a photograph purportedly showing a group of American students being forced to pray to Allah at mosque as required by their Common Core was widely circulated via social media. The picture was not taken in the United States, however, and has nothing to do with the Common Core curriculum. This photograph was snapped at the Ghulzar-e-Madina mosque in Zwolle, the Netherlands, and according to a news article published by The Dalfser Marskramer on 31 October 2014 depicts a group of students from OBS Vinkenbuurt visiting the mosque on a field trip as part of the other cultures project: Same Fake Story, Different Video In May 2019, a nearly identical version of this claim started to circulate on social media. This time, the rumor was centered around a video supposedly showing children praying to Allah at an American school: Again, however, this video was not taken recently, nor was it taken at a school in America. This video has been on social media since November 2018 and also shows a group of Flemish children during a visit to a mosque. (en)
