    Democrats are confused as to why white people don't like it when their kids are taught that they are inherently evil...


    Who knew?

    From the foreword of "Not my idea", a book about "whiteness" used by grade schools across the country.

    “White people have a very, very serious problem, and they should start thinking about what they can do about it . ."

    "Racism is a white person's problem"

    Followed with a full page illustration portraying "whiteness" as a contract with the devil in exchange for their souls, to win the privileges of whiteness.

    I see the racial fire between your words. Get used to it, because only "whites" are making themselves the minority.

    What's your source? I'm betting NOT a main-stream Virginia public school or any other States either.

    I'm a white male that votes Democrat; I wouldn't have stood for my children being taught that, not my Grand Children. That's NOT what CRT teaches either.

    No, what I'm saying is that America has always been a country of immigrants. Remove immigrants from the equation and we are no longer America.

    It is all within the realm of discussion. You justify it, you explain. Nice dodge.

    Not dodging, you said:

    "Then perhaps you should point out how focus on racial identity when trying to teach young minds how to think, could possibly be uniting or good."

    And I replied:

    "That has nothing to do with the OP."

    First; "all" isn't within the realm of discussion, that would quickly get unwieldy. Second I disagree that CRT focus's on teaching, any mind, racial identity; that's not what CRT is about. So why should "I" point it out? On the other hand, self understanding, including "racial identity", IS a good thing.

    Well the Democratic parents living and experiencing it in Virgina felt differently about CRT.

    Go take it up with them.

    Even the most passive description of CRT is hogwash divisive nonsense thats nothing but a destruction from learning the more pivotal skills to allow out children to compete with those who are growing up in China.

    That means our kids are worse off for wasting time on this ****.

    If there is Any importance to racial identity......that, like sex education is something parents teach at home. In public run schools the premise that we are all Americans and identify as such is all that needs to be implied. Now of course if you want to start a race war......keep on with the CRT training. I don't believe China has quite the racial diversity we do and if we do not stand united, they will eat our lunch. Actually I believe, there are "globalists" that would like to see China knock us off and American Marxists as well!

    Why do you skip the word "illegal" when you speak of immigrants? Like every other country on the globe, we have laws in place that apply to immigration. Don't try and make it something it isn't! Why do you deny America it's sovereignty over it's own borders? Do you desire some kind of global socialism? Virginia just elected a Lieutenant Governor that is the kind of "legal" immigrant we need. She didn't just "waltz" over our border without any respect for our Nations sovereignty! Don't be deceitful with your words!

    This explains how both sides deal with the issue. One understands it for what it is and the other is using it as a hammer to bludgeon their opponents into submission. And if you don’t agree, you’re just another racist. Equity is NOT equality. And systemically racist societies don’t allow black people to become educated and successful doctors, lawyers, CEOs, politicians and presidents.

    Shapiro as usual makes anyone he debates with look like a child. And this guy is another who knows he’s caught and just keeps doubling down.

    CRT is all about teaching racial identity. The term "Critical Race Theory" beautifully portrays that as such. And you think that including "racial identity" into the teaching of young American kids is a good thing? You think Martin Luther King's famous saying of--and I paraphrase 'The content of one's character should not be judged by the color of one's skin'. Again, I paraphrased that one for I can't remember MLK's exact words, but you should get MLK's message that fully debunks your particular thought or thoughtless take on this thread's message.

    This whole “critical race theory reaction looks from the outside, like a lot of people a) not wanting to acknowledge history b) trying to cry poor in a palace and c) being thin skinned

    Australia in the ‘50s had a “White Australia” policy which would not even allow people of Mediterranean descent into the country. We stole children from the arms of families because they were too “white” to live with a black parent. The list is horrendous. But, we gave a national apology and now start every meeting with a “welcome to country” acknowledging the traditional people and the elders of the land on which we meet. No hu hu. It is a simple greeting. Costs nothing and if it helps heal old wounds then let us continue the practice forever until it becomes part of the nation.

    we should be looking at ways to deal equity for all

    Yes but part of healing is acknowledging hurts of the past. Only then can you move forward

    Yeah. progressives also what reparations (which is what CRT is). Progressives believe racism is around every corner and progressives also believe racism is the main reason why blacks can't make it in America...I say racism isn't even in the top 10 of reasons why blacks can't make it in America...I would say the teaching of CRT is more a hinderance to black students than racism.

    I looked up this group “Educators 4 Equality and Equity” and the inclusion of that 4 should tell you everything because for something that purports to equity it has more than a slight whiff of astroturf. There are tweets purportedly from this site that have a Klanish tinge

    You just tried to sneak in that loaded word, equity. Equity is equal outcome, NOT equal opportunity. We have plenty of opportunity or all. But equity is impossible. Equity is artificial. Equity is not fair because it punishes those who need to be pushed aside to make room for others BASED ON RACE or GENDER and even sexual identity. That is the polar opposite of equality. It’s not based on merit or ability or even worthiness since wealthy black people benefit from the exact same things wealthy white people do, but also benefit from all the programs that don’t account for CLASS. Nothing equitable about that.

    I’ll believe in equity the day the NFL and NBA start making room for short skinny Asians and Jews:) Or when there’s a white caucus or white music awards. Until that day, you’re all hypocrites.

    Maybe instead of looking at white people as a barrier , leaders like Obama need to tell people that the main reason average black people might not be as successful as they deserve to be is due to rampant single parent homes, little marriage and welfare. Look at the root of where lack of success comes from instead of an excuse.

    We get it, people (adults) fully understand the hurts and or the history of our past (at least those who made it as far as high school). But the point(s) by the right here are making is that the CRT being taught in our public schools shouldn't be taught at all, and it shouldn't be making white kids feel like they're somehow responsible for the wrongs of the past slavery days. China now leads in many fields of study including math, science etc., where America has fell to somewhere around 35th worldwide. Don't you think we (America) should be more focused on teaching our young kids the basics before exposing them to a destructive path toward partisan racial-racist identity politics?

    Why would Democrats want a self sufficient informed populace? That goes against their entire platform of essentially bribing and buying votes, since 2008. Govt knows best and can make all decisions for you. They want to breed them young, so demeaning and weakening white children by destroying their self esteem in school is the key to to breeding more Progressive self loathing voters.

    Income disparity, INEQUITY between black and white is GREATER in Australia than it is in the US. But yes, you are much better about virtue signaling.
