yep. the absolute last thing they want is for people to be judged by the content of their character rather than the color of their skin.

Ironic thing is the CRTish stuff the left pushes makes a diverse and prosperous nation impossible. Diversity can't be a good thing when each group refuses to merge into one culture and fights viciously over every little thing. Looks at the huge rift that has formed in the coastal cities between Blacks and Asians, from brawls at school board meetings to huge numbers of graphically violent attacks. The USA could do just fine becoming more diverse if colorblindness and tolerance had remained core values. Now we're heading in South Africa's direction.

There have been so many great Americans, and I would put industrialists like Thomas Edison and Elon Musk in that bucket along with people like MLK and Lincoln.

But there is no legitimate dispute, George Washington will always be #1, literally and practically.

These are not blind children, Ugga.

Really, is that a serious question?



Of course a Black kid is going to realize that his ancestors might have been slaves. Of course that all depends on IF his ancestors lived in America during the time of slavery and IF they lived in the North or the South. These little details are ignored by the Left because they really want to cast ALL Black people as victims of oppression and discrimination at the hands of the WHITE DEVIL.



As for that kid in school that might be feeling sad that his people were once held as slaves should NEVER be made to feel less than because of his skin tone but instead he should be taught as to just how incredible it is to trace how far his people have come in this country since those dark days. The kid should be built up to be a proud American not torn down.

The Democrats are at the root of all this nonsense, the brain washing in order to make the younger generation question themselves and their place in America due to their skin tone.



It wasn't that long ago we had a Black President. He should have served as an example to everyone as to just how far you can go if you are well educated but no. Obama must have been a fluke because today the Left doesn't do anything to promote and encourage the kids but instead they label everything as racist while they dumb down the school classes so everyone can get a good grade.



I think the story of Black people in America is an incredible one and the sky is the limit but the Dems just want to keep them down.

So, this biracial kid said that his white mother, who is single-handedly raising him, is racist. What does he have to say about his black father, who apparently couldn't be bothered to stick around and help raise him?

if he's had enough crt exposure, he probably blames his 'racist' mom for driving dad away.

Is this not just the age old divide and conquer tactic Dems are using?
