>> My point continues to be that they are not teaching kids CRT as you have asserted. Clearly, they're teaching it to teachers. If is absurd to think it doesn't filter into the curriculum. Which is why parents are furious. You don't teach children to hate one another. And you don't teach teachers to hate parents who have a different skin tone. This is insane by any metric. Explain to me why it is you think ANYONE needs to be taught this Howard Zinn bullshit view of slavery?

A couple weeks ago, no one wanting to teach CRT in schools. Then comes this. The National Education Association, which boasts 2.3 millions members, recently passed a resolutionclaiming it is “reasonable and appropriate” to include CRT in curriculum — and pledged to create “a team of staffers” to help teachers “fight back against anti-CRT rhetoric,” according to Fox News. To boost the effort, the NEA will work to publicize “an already-created, in-depth study that critiques white supremacy, anti-Blackness, anti-Indigeneity, racism, patriarchy … capitalism … and other forms of power and oppression,” according to the NEA site. “We oppose attempts to ban critical race theory and/or The 1619 Project,” the NEA said.
