CRT myths 2

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Critical race theory and its principles are definitely being taught in school rooms, says Dr. Deborah DeSouza Owens, CEO of Coalition of Americans for Action and Principle. If you or your friends are confused about this, it's not surprising at all. Myths and mis-direction abound.

Myth #1 - CRT simply gives some attention to the experiences of minority races in America. But -- no, CRT goes much further to claim that American government, institutions, and economy are all "rigged" to favor whiteness and therefore must all be deconstructed and re-invented.

Myth #2 - CRT is right and just to judge all white people as inherently racist. But -- no, shaming a whole race of people based on their race is itself racism. People are responsible for their own conduct and motives, not that of everyone of their color.

Myth #3 - CRT is not in schools. But -- no, it is often an unspoken/unlabeled assumption that underlies curriculum and classroom discussion.

Parents of every race are giving schools and government a message: "don't do this to my kids."
