Our school district put together a plan for CRT. They wanted to spend millions of dollars on hiring a Diversity Administrator, and Equity Audits. They put teachers through training last summer where they were taught that they are racists because they are white. We had our school board election this weekend and the candidates who ran against CRT won with 70% of the record turnout vote. Pay attention to what your school boards are doing. CRT isn’t just teaching kids to be nice to people of all races. There is a big emphasis on “equity”, which results in eliminating Honors courses (see the state of Virginia). The plan also called for keeping a record of “micro aggressions”, which are any perceived slights against POC by whites people, whether intentional or not.
If you see the word “equity” anywhere you should be on alert.
Now that it’s on my radar....Virginia has began to imply CRT and at the same time eliminate advanced classes, eliminate entrance exams for top schools. No more pledge of allegiance. Interesting.
People don’t understand what CRT actually is. Its goal is EQUITY not EQUALITY. CRT aims to bring everything down to the lowest common denominator and presumes POC can’t actually compete with white people because of institutional racism-that, in itself is a racist and preposterous argument. Soon our children will be sitting with drool buckets beside them in class out of fear of offending any one group.
I read into it more. Seems like one of the schools that is eliminating the entrance exam is 70% Asian and this is actually benefiting white students. Curious to see if it still ok.
It is interesting to see it such a hot topic with school board elections. It’s the question everyone is asking the candidates and some refuse to answer.
