Ignoring the impact of race and racism in history doesn't make it go away; it just makes you ignorant.

I believe today's high school students can handle the information and, hopefully, it will affect their leadership for the future.

Todays high school students are the weakest, most self centered, most brain washed students ever. Most can't maintain a thought for more than ten seconds.

If you had a history class, you know how terrible the US treated other races and ethnicities. The only difference is a lot of things were left out, like the Oklahoma massacre. Of course it affected our laws & institutions. This is not a new concept.

Teachers have been teaching US History without the use of Critical Race Theory and they can continue to teach without it.

This continual focus on race is taking us back to a segregated, dark, racist place. It needs to stop.

It's part of the Democratic plan to maintain hate and racism, thereby keeping the slaves on the welfare plantation. They don't mind putting white people on the plantation either, as long as they have a plantation, where hate and discontent can be maintained.

They are teaching children to hate one another.

Max

Harry is being sarcastic. He agrees with you. Lighten up.

Russ Burton

its promoting racism

Marisa Hagler

We are teaching children they are oppressed or oppressors based solely on skin color. That is the definition of racism. This country is going backwards with CRT and promoting hate and racism against white people mind blowing madness!
