[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please don't use religion to support critical race theory. They aren't close to being the same thing. CRT is the exact opposite of "inclusivity." It's shrouded in buzzwords that sound good, but it divides people and teaches them that they're victims or that they're guilty based on the colour of their skin.

I bet you're a really nice person who is trying to do the right thing for everyone. But if you dug down into the details of what CRT is actually about, you might rethink your support of what SR is doing.

+1   DP here . . . I have worked in the D&I space for decades  faced different forms of personal discrimination, have family members who have dedicated their lives to working towards inclusion, and unfortunately had an older child that faced discrimination comments from staff at a Sacred Heart School.    However, posters are confusing wanting inclusion, embracing diversity, fighting racism as automatically meaning you should then support CRT as an approach.  Agree with this poster - I assume that people come with good intentions, but dig deeper from different sources on CRT.  And even after a deep dive, if you agree with the principles, realize that its still relatively new and how the messaging is delivered - particularly to young kids, is a big testing ground. [/quote]

If someone faces discrimination from a teacher, that teacher should be fired. And I have to assume that any Sacred Heart School would fire a teacher today that exhibited any kind of discrimination.

Nobody would put up with discrimination. Nobody is uncomfortable talking about inclusivity. Nobody is "pushing back" against building a culture free of racism and discrimination of any kind.

This is why I'm confused about CRT. The proponents of CRT tell us they want a society where people don't discriminate. Honestly, I don't believe there is a single example of discrimination at SR. By all means, let us examine our culture, our history, and our society's shameful episodes of discrimination in the past. But do we really need to assume that there is a level of systemic discrimination at SR that truthfully doesn't exist?
