CRT

The talk is about CRT in schools but we have the same thing in society. If you look at the past you can make a good argument that there is systemic racism in the country but if you look at the progress that has been made you see a different America. Teaching CRT in school means covering in detail the bane of slavery, the poor black schools, discrimination in jobs and housing and the Jim Crow laws. If all the history of the past 75 years is added then the picture looks different and that is teaching history. It is telling about the problems and following up with the attempts to solve the problems. Brown v Board of Education and the civil rights laws are two good examples. Having mixed marriage become more acceptable along with affirmative action are steps toward changing attitudes. When you look at how America stands today you see a country that has taken positive measures to right some of the past mistakes. You won't see systemic racism but a country moving away from racism. It is still there but much less so. There are groups who gain power by using racism but they are a small minority. It's time to remove CRT from the schools and from society.
