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.

@8Z6PZKW3yrs3Y
No, unless it’s as an elective
@5GHSCDS4yrs4Y
No, but students should not be shielded from learning about racial issues
@93DHP4B3yrs3Y
CRT is inherently racist, dividing the population into oppressed and oppressor.
@4KL4PZC3yrs3Y
Yes, but not by force of government. Schools can decide.
@25RD7S23yrs3Y
No, students should be taught the facts and be allowed to determine their own meanings from the facts.
@4VXDGTF4yrs4Y
No, but they should be taught about racial and cultural struggles in society to acknowledge the plight of minorities in America.
@92MDVFR3yrs3Y
Should it be taught as truth? No. Should it be proposed as a potential cause for social tension? Yes.
@8QVRZNP4yrs4Y
No, but teach that being of certain races have more chance of certain outcomes.
@88T9RGX4yrs4Y
No, critical race theory is false.
@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

@528HJMS4yrs4Y
No, we should not be teaching lies in school
@Ovrwatch223yrs3Y
No, but do not ban it from discussions in class when the subject is relevant to the theory.
@6WP5FSY3yrs3Y
Critical Race Theory is an advanced legal theory. Nobody is teaching it. Shut up.
@7PWS6KC3yrs3Y
Critical Race Theory isn't actually taught in schools and CRT isn't actually taught until law school.
@kaparker4yrs4Y
No, kids should be allowed to develop their own opinions on their own, and other races based on their own life experiences
@8PRKY7Q4yrs4Y
No, everybody has equal rights nowdays. And we shouldn’t be taught to treat someone different because of the color of their skin.
@8R7N6V44yrs4Y
Leave it up to the teachers and parents.
@8RBFHYK4yrs4Y
No, but privatise education
@8RXJ4YR4yrs4Y
It should be the parents decision and job to address this issue.
@8S6JHGR4yrs4Y
yes and no a little bit of both
@8SDSJ924yrs4Y
Kids should be taught to be racially color blind, but should also understand the unequal number of opportunities regarding subjects like employment and education in certain areas in the United States, where certain races are more prominent than others.
@8SJW8494yrs4Y
All schools should be private organizations that make their own decisions on what to teach and not teach.
@8V2C9ZY4yrs4Y
No criminal, race, nor other differences should be taught in K-12
@8WC3QKP3yrs3Y
I think that kids should be raised to be racially color blind and treat everyone equal. But still be taught about the past and the racism in history, learning that it is bad.
@8X3LCNH3yrs3Y
Children should be taught about different cultures, different races, and different religions. They should learn about different ways of living. Being color blind is ridiculous. There is no such thing. How about being color and race educated. Learn about each other's differences and cultures and celebrate them!!! Don't pretend that they do not exist, because they do. The reason we have racism is that all races tend to stick with their own, due to that is what they recognize and know. It's comfortable for them. Make it comfortable for children at an early age...to be accepting of each other.
@8Z4TXWG3yrs3Y
Taught in schools as mandatory but also highlight the fact some are trying to reverse some of the affects to this day.
@8Z6PZKW3yrs3Y
Yes, but only as an elective
