Sorry to be so blunt since CRT is once again being misrepresented again in our community again today.
White “kids” are not being taught to feel guilty.
I mean, really?
I saw a meme from a R friend of mine which implied exactly this. She got an earful including the fact that some of my ancestors owned slaves. I am not responsible for that. However, being caucasian has given me a leg up. This is the same person who told me she was glad she wasn't as educated as I am. I told her that while my education helps me understand the history, it has nothing to do with my aversion to racism which was awakened in Chicago when i was seven and saw racism in action. It was wrong then; it is wrong now.
Hmm David. That provides no evidence for your generalization. And here’s some news. White kids and really, most kids, are programmed by their families and environments before they ever hit pre-k. And to be frank with you, the common good of public education blurs the lines of many child prejudices and most soft bias by cooperative approaches teachers take in creating a community in their classrooms.
The simple truth of it is that the Trumplicans have demonized CRT so they can demonize public schools and teachers who apparently are teaching dangerous race theories. It has nothing to do with what their true aim is. They want to be I control of schools and funnel money to private schools where proper discourse and time will be given to Aryan White philosophy and keep those black and brown and poor white kids in the public schools with reduced funding. Sounds conspiratorial? It is.
