In reply to the discussion: Pennsylvania School Board Bans Critical Race Theory by Passing 'Patriotism Amendment' [View all]my grad school diversity class had a whole textbook that attempted to assign fault, blame, and I guess attempted to instill guilt on its readers whom the authors apparently assumed were all white, so that stuff is out there. I don't know if it was CRT or not, I had never heard of that in 2006 and that phrase wasn't used, but I hear statements not unlike what could be found in that textbook nowadays. It's better that that stuff not be taught, because it is extremely polarizing and doesn't win many converts.

Nothing new. It's just "in-writing" now... explicit and bare for all to see.
