Critical race theory is the claim that American institutions, laws, and history are inherently racist. It argues that white people have put up social, economic, and legal barriers between the races in order to maintain their elite status, both economically and politically and that the source of poverty and criminal behavior in minority communities is due exclusively to these barriers.

No, students should be taught the facts and be allowed to determine their own meanings from the facts.
@53KSMMS3yrs3Y
Critical Race Theory is not taught at the K-12 level
@8RBQDDP4yrs4Y
No, but we should make sure to reach our children to tolerate others regardless of what they look like and instead judge others based on their character and to simply treat others the way we want to be treated
@7WRSTHW3yrs3Y
They can be, but we avoid incendiary language and speak accurately about what CRT is when doing so. For example, this website uses an incorrect definition of Critical Race Theory.
@4RBRKLY4yrs4Y
No. Color blindness isn't a thing. We should be teaching equality and backing it up with our actions by breaking down the barriers that have been erected. We should teach how "white" isn't an actual race and how it came to be and why.
@5Z8DMCG3yrs3Y
This question cannot be answered without first defining what is meant by "Critical Race Theory".
@6WP5FSY3yrs3Y
Critical Race Theory is an advanced legal theory. Nobody is teaching it. Shut up.
@75ZWQW24yrs4Y
I am very mixed on this issue. Blaming all white people for these issues is not the answer. I feel as if it would cause more of a divide.
@Landon-Dillard3yrs3Y
yes, but not until they are teenagers and add 1619 project to the curriculum
@8R7BSBZ4yrs4Y
Yes and no, i wouldn't say K-12 maybe just 6-12 because that's when things start to change.
