If CRT is only taught at the graduate level why did Delgado and Stefancic write Critical Race Theory: An Introduction with classroom exercises?
A better question is what did Crenshaw mean when she wrote this in 2002?
Quote:
Today, by contrast, we are in the throes of a powerful, tightly organized, almost evangelical movement. It is well-organized and highly visible, and it boasts a string of impressive victories to call its own. It has friends in high places: the media, Congress, the White House, and the Supreme Court. It has a political strategy, a research agenda, and a grassroots and propaganda campaign that are among the most sophisticated and efficient in today's cyberbolic society. It has no known rival, and its resources seem to be endless. Unfortunately, this movement is not ours.

What do you suppose Gloria Steinem (the CIA change agent) meant when she told Angela Davis “ Black Lives Matter, this is what we've been waiting for?”
What do you think the Collegium International meant in 2004 when it wrote this:
Quote:
We believe that the realities of interdependence require that the promise of its benefits be realized in affirmative ways through an architecture of interdependence that assures full equality in the distribution of economic, social and human resources. This condition requires the United States to recognize four crucial principles and needs, that define the central concerns of the Collegium:
** the need to establish democracy at a global level, where it can regulate and offer popular sovereignty over global anarchic forces that have escaped the sovereignty of individual nations, and at the same time secure diversity and equality among diverse democratic cultures and civilizations
Angela Davis was one of herbet mercuse student. Mind you. Angela Davis was later great friends and a supporter of Jim Jones a Christian Marxist and his project in guyana south America. Most of the people who drank the Kool aid were from Oakland California. From the very same community in which one of the founders of BLM is from (Oakland). All of this stuff is connected.
More importantly, when Angela Davis went on trial guess who headed up her defense team? Why the father of CRT, Derrick Bell. Isn’t it amazing how all these people are tied together? Did you know Herbert Marcuse worked for the OSS during World War II? Did you know when the OSS was shut down Marcuse went to the State Dept. Bureau Intelligence and Research where, guess what, he was over the intel of communist regimes. This puts Marcuse in the position to be seeing Mao’s writings as they were being published, something that made Mao one of if not the richest people in China. Funny how that works what with them being for liberation and equity and all. I wrote all that to point out that Mao’s ‘On the People’s Democratic Dictatorship’ lays out the way in which a one party state would come to power in China. It’s remarkable how similar the ideas in that piece of work from Mao and Marcuse’s Repressive Tolerance is. You can read both:
Even more interesting is what Nixon & Kissinger told Mao when they met in 1972:
Quote:
Chairman Mao: Do you have anything to say, Doctor?
Dr. Kissinger: Mr. Chairman, the world situation has also changed dramatically during that period. We’ve had to learn a great deal. We thought all socialist/communist states were the same phenomenon. We didn’t understand until the President came into office the different nature of revolution in China and the way revolution had developed in other socialist states.
President Nixon: Mr. Chairman, I am aware of the fact that over a period of years my position with regard to the People’s Republic was one that the Chairman and Prime Minister totally disagreed with. What brings us together is a recognition of a new situation in the world and a recognition on our part that what is important is not a nation’s internal political philosophy. What is important is its policy toward the rest of the world and toward us.
What Nixon is referring to is what Robert Lifton wrote about in a book published in 1961 called Thought Reform and the Psychology of Totalism: A Study of Brainwashing in China. All of it from the revolutionary colleges to the techniques used to change the way people believe by overwhelming them with social pressure and gaslighting them into submission.
Funny how all that works out. 1972 being a fulcrum point for so many things from Limits to Growth, dissolution of Breton Woods, the formation of the World Economic Forum, Angela Davis’ trial, Gloria Steinem creating Ms. magazine, and so much more. It’s like an exciting puzzle or something.

Ah, so now we get to the bottom of the contrived reason people claim CRT is being taught in schools, fear of diversity. The demographics in these school districts are becoming more diverse and they dreamed up some phony reason to galvanize whites.
I am white but have no issue with the changing demographics, I don't live in fear of change while you want to stop the world in it's tracks and make it 1950 again.
CRT and its relatives are taught in schools.
It's extremely arrogant to think you know what 4 million teachers in the US are all doing. A teacher in my school has a unit on, my school superintendent has said he supports us if we teach it, the dean of academics has told us there is no such thing as "curriculum police."

The entire curriculum and Ideals were created by openly Marxist and Communist Proffesors Derrick Bell, Kimberly Crenshaw, Richard Delgado, Angela Davis, and many other anti American Fools. They are highly indoctrinated in Soviet inspired Communism. Why these Freaks are actually hired by American Universities is beyond me. You could just as well hire someone like Mao or Stalin to indoctrinate your children
Certainly not as a mandatory class. Even as an elective I don't like it but at least then parents would be able to opt their children out of it. Typically these classes are required to pass the grade though and I'm a flat out no on that one.
People who are against anti-CRT bills in various states often say they are against it for free speech reasons but is it really a matter of free speech when A) it's coming from a mouthpiece of the state and B) it is being presented to a captive audience?
No, if a school must offer it parents should be required to opt in, not the other way around.

Take it up with your school board or the administration if you have an issue.
I keep hearing anecdotes, how about posting a factual story in a district so we can have a debate.

I saw a post on here in a thread not to long ago about with a link to the actual curriculum from the Los Angeles Unified School District. I can spend the time to dig it up if you want to eat your words.
Yes, teach it.
It should get 5 minutes in civics class, and goes like this:
There is a theory called "Critical Race Theory". It basically says that our society has a legacy of built in traditions and restrictions that make life more difficult for minority peoples.
Next topic is the Civil Rights Movement.
