Where, exactly, is this happening? I think it's been noted that CRT is not really being taught anywhere at the K-12 level.
CRT is being conflated with anything that has to do with race.

What a clusterfuck.

As I said, I expected the right to come after teachers, which they are doing, but the left caught me by surprise.

There is a lot of money in education that is perceived as easy pickings by the right and left wing'd carpet baggers.

I don't know that/if it is happening at the K-12 level, but if David Lawyer, professor at Santa Barbara City College (US 90s, now retired i think), ended up teaching his "Racism in America" class at a high school I'd have no problem with my kid taking the class. Odd that this was taught in Santa Barbara, where there are no black people nor racism. Could have used it in Fresno.

It's even more important in Santa Barbara.

A lot of people who live sheltered lives are still unaware of the adversity some people face in this country.

I mean, just look at erBB and the amount of energy some people are putting into arguing that racism is not an issue in this country.
All white men who never faced adversity of any kind, nor they witnessed it.
Completely detached from reality.

Not even close.

The museums do exactly what is right when it comes to past horrors which is
Do we acknowledge its existence and just move on?
Do we learn about it, so we can learn from it?


The problem, with modern "antiracist" thought and CRT in general is we reach these two scenarios
Do we dwell on it, and talk about the bad parts more than the good parts?
Do we accuse the descendants of the perps of these acts of being morally inferior because of it?


But nuance is a problem with you all so why shouldn't we be surprised
look at ifallalot literally making stuff up

so scared

so in to his feelz

Neither of those is happening where CRT is being taught [hard stop]
did you guys know that TRANSGENDERS ARE TEACHING CRT TO OUR WHITE BABIES?!?!?!

Neither of those is happening where CRT is being taught correctly.
And how often is it taught "correctly?" As often as socialism is enacted "correctly?"

It doesn't matter if it is "taught" when the theory has moved out of the academy into popular thought. "Antiracism" is teaching hatred and racism. Full stop

Both teams are playing the race card.

To go after the left while ignoring the right is a sign of a bias.

None of the teachers I work with are teaching Anti racism.

We got our hands full with the subject matter.

And, the OC trump kids are looking for anything you say to assert. You start talking race in a comp class the kids will be sprinting to the Dept to complain.

CRT crybabies is a real thing.

The admins are pushing it but they are pushing other crazier sh!t than wokeness.

Why do you only see one hand from each one?


And btw, it never fails to make me laugh that D&D terminology is being bandied about the way it is all of a sudden, especially from the people who worshipped Sessions the Snaga and Barr the Bile Demon.

that's a nice straw man you've built there

it'd be great if you actually had a clue wtf you were talking about at any given time

there seems to be an inverse relationship between your emotional outbursts and your grasp of the subject at hand

You actually think this is emotional.

That's cute

I just have more fun pointing out how the "antiracists" are the most racist of all; just like the "antifascists" are the most fascist

So all the passionate opposition to banning the instruction to kids of a political worldview - in part or in whole - that is supposedly not being instructed is based on what? Why oppose the non-occurence of something you swear is not occurring? Unless you're blatantly lying about it non occurring and you believe it should occur. In which case you can GFY.

I don't care what labels are or aren't being used or which semantics are applicable. All that's important is who is doing what.

I propose banning the advocacy instruction of pedo-values in our elementary schools. You will, of course, proceed to oppose that ban on that non-event on same basis that you oppose this ban on this "non-event".
