There is a lot of problems in the USA right now. It feels overwhelming. The pendulum is swinging wildly and differently around the country. With that said, I also believe that if this country is to become a better place there needs to be space for voices and theories that one would consider to be BS. Again, I am open to at least listening to the conversation. Eventually, I believe the country will land in a different place with a different overall consensus. This excites me.
I do think we have the right leader to lead us to a better place. We really lucked out, between getting rid of Delirium J. Tremens, getting both Houses, and getting the Democrat who is probably most prepared to deal effectively with the country's problems by dint of his experience. But critical race theory is very harmful, and stupid. Far better students should be taught empathy, beginning in elementary school.
I like that and I would add that I would like to see “compassion” as part of more school experiences. For me the word compassion adds the component of action; doing things to contribute to community and the country.
If you had actually studied critical race theory (I had to in order to write something accurate about it) you would find that it is actually very useful in learning how complicit we all can be, and what we need to do to get to where we claim we want to go.
Maybe so, and maybe not, but in practice it often results in harm, as evidenced by the NYT article on Smith College that I posted, and numerous other articles I've read. I think teaching empathy would do everything people want critical race theory to do without the harm.
Empathy, compassion and respect. Truth, justice and The American Way. Parents, school, religion. Throw them all in a melting pot and build back better.

Sounds good to me!
