We are talking about Critical Race Theory because the Republicans want to

[edhopper]

talk about Critical Race Theory and the media always talks about anything the Republicans want to.
And the Republicans want to talk about CRT because they then don't have to talk about Climate Change or Healthcare or voter suppression or infrastructure or wealth inequity or any of the other actual vital things they have no answers for.

1. Exactly on the money. And they're always looking for wedge issues...

to divide people. And race is the biggest one there is in America, as they know a big percentage of their voters are racists, or at least vulnerable to their racial fear mongering.

2. Just curious. Are any public schools that you know of teaching Critical Race Theory?

I spoke to a couple of teachers and a school board member yesterday, and they all said they had never heard of it until it started hitting the news recently.

One teacher told me it is not in public schools at all, but is presented only at college level. Is that true?

[Eliot Rosewater]

4. Yes, entirely true...mostly taught at law school. Not only law school, but mostly.

[Generic Brad]

5. This true

My daughter is getting her PhD in American history. She confirmed for me that this is a topic only covered in Master's level course work.

7. No

That is why it is a manufactured issue by the GOP

3. CRT is their newest boogeyman. nt

6. Because of the 1960's LIE that journalists are liberals (as in Democrats as in bad)

the media must give the right 100 times more leeway than the left, they always do, they believe they have to.

Are most journalists left leaning as in liberal? Common sense says yes, anyone who looks up the MEANING of the word will understand why...

1. willing to respect or accept behavior or opinions different from one's own; open to new ideas.
2. relating to or denoting a political and social philosophy that promotes individual rights, civil liberties, democracy, and free enterprise.

Your average journalist is EDUCATED at a higher level, has been around to various places, often overseas.

BY DEFINITION it makes sense they would land in the above definition.

8. Yep Dems need to work the rest and tell the media the knock it off

[maxsolomon]

9. They are placing all Social Justice issues under a new umbrella

which they've defined.

It's the same old BS: "the coloreds hate you for your Freedoms."
