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, but students should not be shielded from learning about racial issues
@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
@8Y6887T3yrs3Y
Critical Race Theory is not taught in K-12 education.
@5GHSCDS4yrs4Y
No, but reform curriculum to give a more honest look at our institutions, laws, and history regarding race relations
@5GHSCDS3yrs3Y
Regardless, the laws that ban "critical race theory" are too vague

This question cannot be answered without first defining what is meant by "Critical Race Theory".
@HestJay3yrs3Y
No, CRT is a legal theory for adults in post-secondary education. Children should be taught that racism is real and harmful, but not CRT.
@8FPZ87M3yrs3Y
CRT has never been taught in k-12 it is a college level concept. Accurate history should be taught to k-12 kids including the darkest parts and lgbtq history
@8G4Q6KZ4yrs4Y
No, kids should be raised to treat all others equally instead of being taught they are inherently racist or disadvantaged based on the color of their skin
