See my example #309.

It's called social emotional learning now.

History is full of white males oppressing others. Due to history all whites are racist whether they realize it or not. Denying your racism means you are especially racist (Notice the Kafka trapping logic, which opposes the scientific method). Other races can't be racist, only prejudiced. It is important to then atone for racism, which is still structural in society with equity that promotes certain groups ahead based on the pigment of their skin.

It exists. It is taught. We need to be honest about this.

I am on the left politically, Trump is horrible and gave me anxiety every day, but this CRT stuff is divisive, discriminatory, and needs to end.

My 2 grands graduated 3 yrs ago, n one is in her Jr yr never heard of it. That is in Orlando fl schools- not some tiny school in the woods. I do have one grad from one of those small schools in north Fl.

CRT was just introduced- how you take it several years ago ??? They fighting now to keep it of the curriculum. Explain?

I thought those on the right were big on preserving history.

No?

If it were only true, it would be fine. But be honest, you know it's not true, that it is a mass of fabricated lies aimed at raising hatred against white Americans, to pit Americans against each other and to ensure that we are all fighting-rather than paying any attention to the actual sources of violence in this nation. To ignore the political class. To be taught that the terror attacks by BLM and Pantifa against normal, law abiding Americans weren't, well, terrorism, but some disturbed faux outrage over some past, imagined slight.

The left should just stop pretending. They aren't trying to help minorities or the poor, they are simply trying to tear this country apart and pit Americans against Americans. Sadly, both the Democratic party and most of the MSM are doing the best they can to make that happen. And they don't care how much they have to lie, how many stories they have to fabricate, to do so.
