I can go on and on.
AND ON
but dont feel like looking for more things I remember hearing but cannot locate quickly.

Is it in the majority of schools? No. But advocates are trying. Varies greatly from place to place.

The choice is to apologize to whites and Asians for blaming them for black failings or to continue finding new ways to blame whites and Asians for black failings.
I'm willing to forego the apology if they'd just stop randomly attacking us.

When progressive ideologies burst into flames, they always have the racism card to pull.
And don't forget, at one time, it had the highest per capita income in the country.

Um, are you sure you want to do tit-for-tat racially based assaults? Because the perpetrator-victim flow is much more prominent in the direction opposite of the one you've mentioned here.

Um don't try to make it out to more than it is, an example provided in a response to what a poster said.

Absolutely, but CRT as practiced in academia is far more than that. It teaches that only whites have done bad things by leaving out all of the bad things that every nation and tribe around the world has done. It’s literal purpose is to teach students that white people bad, no one else is. They also leave out the fact that white people ….it’s worse than that….white, Christian, men started the abolitionist movement at great sacrifice to themselves and families.

Bottom line, CRT proponents pick and choose the history they tell to target white people with racism. It’s goal is to take down democracy and instill some brand of Marxism/socialism/communism. It has no place in modern society.

Teach about slavery and the war fought by millions of soldiers that ended slavery.

Teach about segregation and the Civil Rights movement that ended segregation more than 50 years ago.

So discussing race, systematic racism and white privilege is teaching CRT, seems like a healthy debate.
