Nobody has been hiding our history, although there are plenty that wish to hide it or destroy it by renaming, destroying statues, burning the flag, etc. CRT is theory NOT fact. And theory is someone's opinion, NOT fact. How many times do these children need to be told about slavery? How many times is MLK taught to a student throughout his travels from one grade to another. Black history MONTH gives teaching and lecturing for a dedicated month. Explain why a theory that divides is good for children. It's not about teaching history. It's about demeaning both white and children of color. Anyone that thinks that is good for children, either does not have any children or they hate their own lives and wish to make every child miserable. Like I said before, if you want theory, then teach it in a college philosophy course. CRT sounds great to the naive, but is mentally dangerous for ALL children. Like the man said on Drag Net "just the facts ma'am, just the facts."
