Parents and community members protest after a Loudoun County School Board meeting was halted by the school board because the crowd refused to quiet down, in Ashburn, Va., on June 22, 2021.Teachers nationwide said K-12 schools are not requiring or pushing them to teach critical race theory, and most said they were opposed to adding the academic approach to their course instruction, according to a survey obtained by NBC News.
Critical race theory is an academic study at the undergraduate and graduate level that aims to examine the role of racism in the modern era and the ways it has become woven into the social fabric. Academics in the field argue the U.S. has institutionalized a racial caste system. across the country, according to an NBC News analysis of media reports and organizations’ promotional materials.
“We’re asking, ‘Should we promote it or forbid it?’ That’s not even the level to have the discussion on,” Meadows said. “The question is: Are we giving students good literature? Are we giving them great thinkers to interact with so that they themselves can become great thinkers?”
Bullshit
That’s pretty bad when they don’t want to teach the truth
This is not news, this is why parents must do it
Of course it isn't but the GQP needed something to rally against
Fox would make you believe CRT is being taught in all US schools.
Just teach the truth.
Thank God. It’s pure hate America. We have been teaching the evils of slavery for over 100 years. In fact before the Civil War the best selling book was about how evil it was. Best selling
Of course it isn’t, CRT is the latest right wing boogeyman.
How about teach what actually happened and not give it a label
Proves just because you teach, doesn’t mean you’re right, or smart.
Who cares. American public education system sucks anyway. Private schools don't have to worry about this crap.
It’s being used as a political tool to scare people.
There it is & there it is. 🤷🏼
The loud-mouthed, ignorant mob will continue as long as “conservative” media keeps stirring it up.
It’s a non issue … the GOP just needs another faux-outrage issue and excuse for more big-government overreach
Most K-12 teachers are so exhausted from the last 15 months they have little desire to take on anything new, let alone something that is going to get them more criticism…we’ll get back to you after a well deserved rest.
Shocking!!! They weren’t teaching it anyway so nothing to report here…carry on💯
POTUS washingtonpost In partnership with WithHonorAction, LIRSorg, humanrights1st, & IRAP call on the White House to immediately evacuate our Afghan allies. ALL are welcome: democracynow nytimes
“Well… If It’s Not Gonna Happen In The Classrooms… Then Y’all Already Know What’s Gonna Happen On Those Racist Streets… LEFT!?!?!?”☮️❤️🆓🇺🇸🌍✅
It's only offered on the college level, how ignorant are these teachers? You have to seek out electives on Critical Race Theory for an American Studies or race/gender studies major. Not part of any general ed requirements. Why is this so hard for the uneducated to understand?
Oh my fucking god shut up. This is a non issue at K-12 schools.
As usual some made up bullshit to fuel the right wing outrage machine.
No school district was requiring teachers to teach Critical Race Theory, it was Fake White Outrage created by Radical Republicans.
the right REALLY doesn’t want the status quo shaken up. they push that if you address racism, you’re a racist. everything is already equal, they say. you’ll make kids racist by explaining a racist system to them. it’s so transparent
It’s a completely made up problem.
Yet it means nothing to the Faux News evidence free conspiracy victim martyrs screaming at school board meetings
If anything a lot of schools where I’m at (TN) have actively opposed it and placed a lot of restrictions on teachers who originally had a lot of laterality to incorporate topics regarding CRT into curriculums and have limited them to approved curriculums only that don’t teach it
Of course! It’s another fake boogeyman created by the right.
Critical race theory is taught in graduate schools. K-12 just teach history as accurate as can be
I think teachers feel overworked and under appreciated. This extra curriculum might just feel like more burdens with more bull crap from parents.
