| | | CRT, as I understand it, is just making sure that the "critical" part of our history as it pertains to the structural racism that is so obvious today, gets included in the history classes. We could, of course, pretend America isn't racist and ignore the bloody, violent and racist parts of our past- but that way lies more racism, more division and much more pain and anger for POC.
Perhaps this is another area where the name is problematic for idiots. Perhaps they should have just said, "REAL history, without the red, white and really WHITE, glasses". Not that republicans would have liked real history any better as a term. They can't even look at current events and get them anywhere near correct- no wonder they can't bear to look at the past. |
