Criticism of race theory has recently made headlines because state legislatures are considering banning it.
In April, Idaho became the first No CRT in the classroom.
Governor Ron DeSantis looks at it 86 years old last month.
I saw it in June Introduce a bill in Washington, D.C.
To remind you what to offer in the CRT field, please consider The concept that measures will prevent:
- Individuals are responsible for the actions of other members of the same race or gender in the past because of their race or gender
- One race or gender is inherently superior to another race or gender.
- A person, whether consciously or unconsciously, due to his race or gender, is essentially a racist, sexist, or oppressor.
- Members of one race or gender cannot and should not try to treat others without respect for race or gender.
- Individuals should be discriminated against or receive unfavorable treatment on the basis of their race or gender in whole or in part.
- The United States is fundamentally racist or sexist.
- A person’s moral quality must be determined by his or her race or gender.
- Features such as elite politics or hardworking morality are racism or sexism, or are created by a particular race to oppress another race.
The CRT has strong supporters; among them is Kevin Cokley.
Kevin is a professor at the University of Texas at Austin. USA Today On Tuesday, he defended dogma.
In Kevin’s view, opposing the CRT means approving dishonest assessments:
[The] The ultimate goal of the anti-CRT effort is to prevent any discussion of racism that sees the United States as imperfect.
According to the professor, the doctrine has nothing to do with division:
Critical race theory is not hostile, divisive, or anti-American. This description is a politicized distortion of the theory, which prevents and punishes any discussion of the view of systemic racism. Unfortunately, it still exists in large numbers in American society.
Kevin defines CRT as “it believes that racism is not just an act of personal prejudice or prejudice, but is rooted in institutions, policies, and legal systems.”
“Critics of critical racial theory,” he exclaimed, “use it as a general term to describe any censorship of systemic racism.”
If we cannot agree on its content, how do we determine whether we should teach it Yes?
Recently on CNN, the host Don Lemon Seems to imply The CRT is merely a recognition of American slavery:
“[H]People are beginning to realize-especially the ancestors of slaves-they are enslaved, they are beaten, they are sold, they cannot accumulate wealth, they cannot go to school, they cannot vote, do you think it makes them feel good? “
And Professor of Air Force Academy Lynn Chandler Garcia thinks it’s inflated ——This is why she taught it.
As Lynn explained recently Washington post, “The United States is built on duality: on the one hand liberalism and equal rights; on the other hand, inequality, inequality, and second-class citizens….Racism has been deeply ingrained in the system from the beginning…”
As for slavery, it needs to be clear that Longhorn Niuzhou will still teach a history that is not perfect.
As pointed out Campus reform, Texas House of Representatives Act No. 3979-Prohibition of CRT-requires teaching “the history of white supremacy, including but not limited to slavery, the eugenics movement, and the Ku Klux Klan, and it is morally wrong “
Nonetheless, Kevin hopes to use CRT in the classroom—in his words, this is part of an “urgently needed” conversation about “racial and systemic racism in this country.”
I don’t think he needs to worry—I bet there will be no progress in such words.
A long, long time.
