Thanks to you people sensationalizing it, CRT is being taught more widely. Way to go! And that class at UConn is full, so I guess we’ll see more upper division college classes on CRT, thanks to the conservatives publicizing it. But you still don’t know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?

It’s your fault for being wrong and not owning up to it. You wrote that the SSN’s were released by “Far left libbies in the Jan 6 Committee.” But the truth is that the SSN’s were not released by anyone in the Jan 7 Committee.

Well, dickless, the thing is, everything in law is multidisciplinary. It always involves something like history, technology, society, etc etc. All the CRT classes I could find are taught in law schools, with only one exception. And you still don’t know what it is or why you hate it. You should be asking yourself why it is you hate it.

Just shut up and list single non-graduate class at a single non-graduate school. Look, your heads are all exploding at the mortal danger of teaching CRT to children in public schools, right? So how hard is it to find ONE SINGLE CLASS in CRT being taught in a public elementary or high school? Why can't you do that, unless it's because CRT simply is not taught in elementary schools and high schools? If it's "crapola," how come you can't explain why? It's because you don't know what CRT is, and you've been conned by people you never met into believing it's something very bad. But something is happening here and you don't know what it is, do you, Mr. Jones?

And all of those reporters and the Capitol security cameras were somehow faked into airing the Steven Spielberg footage.

What place have you proven it is taught? Can you name a school and class? I looked. I found classes at UCLA law school, Duke law school, University of Pittsburgh School of Education (teaching how to teach it), Columbia Law School, Vanderbilt Law School, Stanford Law School, University of Mississippi Law.... So, mostly law school. Not grade school. Not high school, although U Conn just added an undergraduate class in CRT.

What "crapola" is that? Nobody falls for this nonsense of yours. You don't actually know what CRT is. You just read somewhere that it's something really bad that you're supposed to hate, so you do. But you never bothered to figure out what it really is, have you? All you do is repeat the same thing. And, by the way, in my original post, I said that I was only summarizing it, so if it falls into graduate Sociology or other programs, great. However, it was developed by law professors and most of it boils down to policies and laws.

Just link to a high school CRT textbook on Amazon.

No. What “kicked off” the rioting was the sitting President of the United States telling his supporters, without evidence, that the election had been “stolen,” and that his followers needed to march to the US Capitol to STOP THE STEAL. They marched to the Capitol peacefully and then erupted in violence. This thing was not “a few dozen people.” We all saw the videos. How could it be that a few dozen people caused 150 police officers to be hospitalized, leading to five officer deaths and several permanent disabilities? 36 or 48 people put 150 in the hospital? No, you are lying. Hundreds have been criminally charged and many have been convicted, although America’s Most Wanted remains at large.

But you don't know.

No, I did not lie. If that is true, then show me the textbook. If you teach a child that there is systemic racism in America, that is not Critical Race Theory.

What graduate class in Critical Race Theory have you taken? Please tell us what books you’ve read on the subject.

You are illiterate. The NEA policy you cite says this: ”"It is reasonable and appropriate for curriculum to be informed by academic frameworks for understanding and interpreting the impact of the past on current society, including critical race theory.” “Informed by CRT,” is not the same thing as CRT itself. Where is the CRT textbook?

Can you show us an elementary or secondary school CRT textbook, and tell us which school district uses it? Going back to the original post in this thread, what is the harm with teaching high school students about the legal history of desegregation and voting rights in the USA?

Now it’s an “attack”?

Evidence is non-existent.

Focus. Pay Attention to what I write: FACT: You do not know whether the person(s) responsible were “far left” or not.

Here’s more liberal news for you: The sky is blue.

I don’t know, why don’t you tell us?

No, I do not know. Can you tell us how many people read 1,000+ pages of material before release?

Again, how do you know the political beliefs of the civil servant(s) who mistakenly failed to redact this information?

You must have missed the part in the video where he smashed in three windows with his bare fists. He then grabbed a riot helmet and further smashed the windows. Ashli Babbit then tried to climb through one of thee shattered windows, and was shot and killed. If he had not smashed these windows, Babbit probably wouldn’t have been shot, but that’s not why he’s charged with multiple felonies. From what I gather, he has not been convicted or sentenced yet. He pleaded not guilty to all charges and in his arraignment, he continually argued with the judge and his own lawyer about an unrelated case (Note that nobody ever wins a case by arguing with their own lawyer and the judge). If he continues to resist a plea deal, he’ll probably spend six years or so in jail, but we’ll see what happens. ALAM, Zachary Jordan Case Number: 1:21-cr-190 Charge(s): Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers; Assaulting, Resisting, or Impeding Certain Officers Using a Dangerous Weapon; Civil Disorder and Aiding and Abetting; Destruction of Government Property Exceeding $1,000; Obstruction of an Official Proceeding and Aiding and Abetting; Entering and Remaining in a Restricted Building with a Deadly or Dangerous Weapon; Engaging in Physical Violence in a Restricted Building with a Deadly or Dangerous Weapon; Disorderly Conduct in a Capitol Building; Act of Physical Violence in the Capitol Building; Parading, Demonstrating, or Picketing in Capitol https://www.justice.gov/usao-dc/defendants/alam-zachary-jordan

Has any peaceful protestor from January 6 been charged with a crime? No, of course not.

I’m not a legal scholar and I can’t give a full lesson in CRT. But my OP is the 50,000 foot view of institutionalized racism in America. The details exist in over a century of policies, actions, state and local laws, judicial rulings, regulations, etc., which ignored, legalized or instituted de jure or de facto discrimination in America. After studying the history of these laws and policies, the student is better able to write new laws which aren’t based on older precedents or language which legalized or permitted discrimination. People widely think discrimination is over and no longer exists, but it does. We can see most clearly that America still has predominantly white and predominantly black public schools and neighborhoods, for example.

No, actually, I think it makes sense to give Congresspeople 72 hours to read a bill before a vote, as long as that doesn’t mean a 72 hour delay for every single amendment.
