    At the core of the defense by Democrats and their pundit class in the controversy over critical race theory and other forms of the same basic ideology in Virginia schools is denial that any such thing has anything to do with public schooling in Virginia. Yet here we are, the night before Election Day, and the Virginia Department of Education’s “EdEquityVA” website is still live, and it is a treasure trove of precisely this sort of thing. There’s a page on “Anti-racism in Education”:

    Anti-racism requires acknowledging that racist beliefs and structures are pervasive in education and then actively doing work to tear down those beliefs and structures. Strategic planning around racial equity that does not include systemic analysis of racism helps to maintain systems of oppression…In classroom practice, anti-racist pedagogy acknowledges the importance of racial and cultural identities, honors voices and experiences of people of color, teaches through collaboration and dialogue, examines power and oppression, examines discrimination as systemic, critiques traditions of schooling, and advocates for social action…Drawing from critical race theory, the term “white supremacy” also refers to a political or socio-economic system where white people enjoy structural advantage and rights that other racial and ethnic groups do not, both at a collective and an individual level…..

    It is a flat out lie to claim CRT is not being taught to kids, particularly in Virginia. The democrats there and other places are perpetuating this lie. The rest of the article linked above goes into great detail about how it’s being done and what is being emphasized. I’m glad that parents are calling it out.

    I really have no idea why people get upset about this but then again I was educated to have a healthy academic skepticism about anything that is official government-approved dogma.

    The article beyond what I shared here goes into great detail how CRT is real and is being taught to our kids. Even the excerpt above from a school board in Virginia mentions Critical Race Theory principles.

    Only on the Left do you have them feeding the hate. In my long life I have never seen a Party so determined to make Whites a minority and fuel the racial fire of hate between the races. Biden now sees minorities as the coming power for the Democratic Party and is willing to rush it along with his immigration policies and CRT.

    some racists are using Critical Race Theory principles in a racist way, doesn't mean the left supports it

    some on the right are racist too, does that mean the entire Republican Party supports racism?

    Trump did not fire Stephen Miller after racist emails came out, does that mean the entire right support racism?

    Your own post admits CRT is not being taught to our kids, what is happening is some teachers are applying the knowledge they learned from CRT in a bad way in the classroom, they are using it to justify racism against whites - racism is always wrong, regardless of the race of the racist (or the party of the racist)

    Same thing here.. The left is refueling a fire that was all but out. They have gone as far as compensate and encourage racial tension once again.. People are not going to stand by and watch as people are paid large amounts simply because of historic wrongs and fabricated unrealistic nonsense of the day.. The DNC are deliberately creating violence and racial tensions...

    From here on out it will be a suckers game, stupid people will overreact and the Overseers will strip us all of our freedom and we will live like the rest of the poor bastards that risk life and limb to get to this country and away from the ones we are becoming..

    That is it seems a universal tactic and talking point of the progressive left. Clearly CRT is being taught in more school districts than the left wants to admit to.

    The topic is education and 1619/CRT being taught in our schools. Trump tried to fight this with his 1776 commission which Biden canceled in favor of CRT. Fortunately the 1776 commission voted to stay in existence and secured private funding to continue.

    The left swears up and down they’re not teaching CRT only to go insane when you tell them to stop teaching something they say they’re not teaching.

    Because you did and I’ve learned long ago that liberals never ever stay on topic and troll/derail when on conservatives articles so I took it head on.

    CRT is not being taught in public schools. My goodness it’s post graduate curriculum which might explain why so many are having difficulty grasping it.

    The notion that it is being taught in public schools is a pure unadulterated deception courtesy of the Republican culture war variety. It’s explicit intent is to instill fear: Gin up the unwitting.

    If you’ve wondering why the country is going to hell in a hand basket look no farther than this purposeful fear campaign for an illustration. The product of “adults” that should know better. “Adults” behaving badly who’d a thunk?

    Exactly.

    Here is their argument:

    i) CRT is not being taught in schools, claiming otherwise is trafficking in conspiracy theories.
    ii) If you object to CRT being taught in schools, you are a racist that doesn't want history taught.

    Yes, it is being taught.

    Do you think the actual curriculum of college level material is what is being claimed as being taught? Of course it isn't. Everyone knows this. However what IS being taught is tied into CRT. CRT is about in its most simplest forms, racist laws. It was supposed to be meant to help new lawyers wishing to go into politics avoid making the mistakes of past generations. Leftists however are using it a different way. They are using it as a foundation for how and what to teach children. They took something that they didn't understand and have used it to create and push their own preconceived agenda's. Since CRT is the foundation upon which they build their case it can rightly be said that they are teaching CRT.

    For example they allow books such as "How To Be Antiracist For Kids" in schools. In some schools it is recommended reading on school websites. That book was written by the same people who wrote the original "How to be Antiracist".

    LINK: How to Be an Antiracist: Kendi, Ibram X.: 9780525509288: Amazon.com: Books
    LINK: How to be an anti-racist - for kids | Quail Ridge Books

    Both books are admitted to by the authors as being based on CRT.

    And that is just one example that I can give you. Another is the NEA, The National Education Association. They straight up said "We oppose attempts to ban critical race theory and/or The 1619 Project,” the NEA said." and that it was reasonable and appropriate to teach it. LINK: Teachers union vows to 'fight back' against Critical Race Theory critics (nypost.com)

    And another example that I can give you, which the above link actually mentions...is the 1619 Project. It was admitted that it was based on CRT by the author of it. It is now being taught in over 4500 schools around the country. Yet is disputed by actual scholars. Even some of the scholars that helped the 1619 Project said that the information that they provided was taken out of context. Some of those same scholars are now working on the 1776 Project to counter the 1619 Project.

    Those are just a few examples. I can still provide more.

    You are right about the left feeding the hate for a purpose, but wrong about what that purpose is. The last thing the left wants is for a white population minority. If they did, they would be backing anti-abortion legislation. Think about it; why are planned parenthood abortion mills located in areas with a heavy minority concentration? Answer, ask their founder. She believed that certain people should not be allowed to procreate. And the DNC goes out of their way to fund the PP. No, they do not want to make whites a minority. Their spreading of hate is to divide the population. That is the only way their agenda can become reality. Divide the population on the issue of race, and then that population will be too distracted to notice when they attempt the fundamentally change the framework of this country. No, this is not about population control. It is about power of socialist/communist reform.

    A married couple has a baby, but cannot agree on the name. The father wants to name the child Michael after his father. The wife wants to name the child George after her father. Neither would give ground in the argument. So, the child was raised with the father calling the child Mike, and the mother calling him George.

    Now, the question is; is Mike and George two separate individuals, or one person with two names?

    Whether you call it CRT or EdEquityVA it doesn't matter. It is the same lame racist theory that is being rejected by the majority of Americans including by minorities. As a matter of fact, I think they should call it IRT. It could stand for the Irrelevant Race Theory or the Idiotic Race Theory. Or how about the IRTTHBRBTMOA - the Idiotic Racial Theory That Has Been Rejected By The Majority Of Americans!!!

    Good post. The problem is that 99% of GOP voters couldn't explain what CRT actually is, but they know that they don't like it and that it will destroy America. That's how you tap into white resentment to win elections. Fear mongering ALWAYS works.
