So let the racists decide what can be taught?

Sure, call parents racists. See how far that CRT technique gets you.

It’s not CRT, it’s logic. Parents attacking a black teacher for racist reasons are racists.

Put that on a banner and shout it to passer-bys. Petition your local Democratic candidates to use that as part of their platform. It's going to generate great results!

What is CRT? Has it ever been taught in American K-12 schools?

DP. You know the answers.

Can’t she sue these people, the schools?

Maybe for wrongful termination.

So parents attack a Black teacher for imaginary grievances and get the teacher fired twice and you think the victims are the poor misunderstood parents?

I havent finished the longform article yet, but she wasnt fired from the first job. She withdrew before starting, after the schoolboard passed a resolution banning CRT.

No and CRT is not being taught in any k-12 schools in America. Unfortunately the racist history of the US is also being ignored in many schools.

I don't think most anti-CRT parents know what CRT even really is. Just another bogeyman the Rs like to use to rile up their base. And so many idiots fall for it.

Kind of like glutens. Gluten and CRT are vague terms used to categorize things that are bad.

Honest questions:

Would white parents have chased out this teacher if, say, she had taught Algebra instead of what she was teaching?
Would white parents have chased out this teacher if they were white teaching the same thing?

The subject line reads as if the white parents chased out the educator on account of the educator’s race. I’m not sure that’s the case.

Im pretty sure they would not have chased out the educator if she were white. Since they had no idea what she was "teaching" the first question is irrelevent. She wasn't teaching critical race theory. In fact that wasnt even on her radar.

They chased her out of a neighboring district when she got a job in the social studies department. So yeah, I’m guessing They’d have chased her out of the second spot if she’d taken a job as custodian or crossing guard.

So it’s ok to be racist but being called what you are is offensive? Can you explain further?

I think it's a salient point that she never actually started, so it's tough to say she was fired or chased or that she was teaching anything. She isnt even a teacher, for that matter. It would be good to hear this story from the perspective of the parents, and how this lady ever landed on their radar.

As for Cobb County, I think some facts are in order. Here is the demographics of the student body:

Student Demographics*

Caucasian - 34.9%Black - 30.6%Hispanic - 23.8%Asian - 6.0%Other - 4.7%

This is a diverse community. I'm struggling with the narrative of the evil white supremacists in Cobb.

Probably not. The anti-CRT folks tend to be fine with Black people in roles like custodians and crossing guards. Perhaps a less fraught and less stereotyped comparison might be something like IT support consultant or, as the PP suggested: Algebra teacher.
