I'm okay with teaching about communism, but not okay with teachers pressured to teach it in a biased way. You see the difference and why I'm not okay with the CRT crap in today's political environment?

No not really. You don’t see bias with capitalism?

These are college students they need to learn, hear and question everything.

There is bias in English class and communications class. But you are okay with that?

You know history is biased now, right?

“To an extent, the term “critical race theory” is now cited as the basis of all diversity and inclusion efforts regardless of how much it’s actually informed those programs.”

So some people use the term CRT for things that are not based on CRT.

There is idiosyncratic bias and there is systematic bias. People aren't stupid and can tell. Playing the game of words won't get you anywhere.

Translation: I’m okay with bias that is good for me like we were friends with “Indians” and the civil war was not about slavery.

An informed person would know about all of those systems. They might not be an expert but they would not be ignorant or clueless as to the basics of the different systems and some places that had tried them.. successfully or not, currently and in the past.

I'll be okay with the "bad" bias when it's not the radical leftists pushing it.

I can actually see viewing history as class struggle as Marx did. I can't see it as being about race. It's just a flawed theory. Like Martin Bernal's Black Athena. Greece was not very much influenced by Africans, but try criticizing it and see what names you get called.

Virginians Who Watched Schools Taken Over By Sharia Law Refuse To Make Same Mistake With Critical Race Theory

Now that the Virginia governorship has been won, I expect this hot button issue to go back onto the shelf with satanic panic and other nonsense.[/quote ]

We can only hope!

Oh, dear. Just what I thought. The "red wave" in VA was pushed by racist suburban moms afraid their little kids would learn that their grandparents were racist people who approved of segregation and their great grandparents might have approved of lynching.

There is no running way from history. Your kids will eventually learn the truth you try to deny.

See the names people get called for their interest in studying crt. If you can't survive some name calling, do something else besides work in an educational field.

Take a long scholarly look at all of these ideas and stop banning books and theories etc. because they make you uncomfortable.
