The $64k question is: what are liberals trying to accomplish with this damaging brain washing?
The left's ultimate goal here is to create a populace that will keep them in power long enough to sufficiently erode the constitutional rights that would allow the populace to remove them from power later.
Should we not teach our children about some of the darker periods of American history? As far as I'm aware CRT is teaching the history of enslavement and colonialism. These things happened, why should children not learn about it?

wow. you truly know nothing about CRT.
bans on CRT would in no way prevent teaching about American history.

I think that they should be taught. The concept that they should be taught in a way that says "America bad" or "America sinful and without redeeming qualities" is quite wrong. When you edge out the teaching of Lexington and Concord and Bunker Hill and replace it with a gruesome, dystopian rendering of the slave ships, slave beatings and separation of families that overdoes it. Both the underside and sunny side of history need to be taught.

In times past we could be accused of concentrating too heavily on the positive and now the modern left has us focusing too heavily on the negative. Balance is needed. America can still be a great country even with our flaws. It's important not to ignore them and also important not to let them solely define us. Except of course for someone who is actively seeking to undermine the fabric of our nation.
