    Thank you for the information. I’m from Los Angeles, and i’m 60, when I was young I had a friend who would now be over 100 years old, he went to Garfield High School. He would tell me that he didn’t notice racism in the Los Angeles culture ‘till Southern whites and and blacks brought it with them. He would say that the original westward movement was by Northern progressive whites and blacks, he was the descendant of Northern free slaves.

    Wonderful. The only thing I disagree with is that it isn't useful for undergraduates. I think it is absolutely useful for undergraduates (and those who do not seek a college degree) so they can understand the world they live in.

    In our postmodernist society, especially in educational channels, the definitions can change rapidly.
    Schools can and should teach about the history of racism, but they should not indoctrinate children into the cult of race essentialism, collective guilt, and racial superiority theory.
    After 20 years of government service, I am so distraught at the inability of government to enhance the lives of our young people. Black children in our country have been downgraded to societal victims who are incapable of learning. The notion that we have to make classes less rigorous while subjects such as mathematics are labeled as racist leave me heartbroken.
    I see no problem with parents and children attempting to save themselves from toxic far-left propaganda with its origins in Marxism.

    CRT is a way to divide the people. It seems that people who support such courses are not seeing the bigger picture here: racism cannot be eliminated. It can only be lessened if we all take the time to learn from each other and see that racism is a very modern term tracing back after the end of the European Renaissance.

      What could we possibly learn that will help us lessen racism!? You're basically saying "you can't stop racism, so stop talking about it because it makes the bigots get mad. You're saying "there is not that much racism anymore, so take what we give you and gtfo! What you're saying is you comfortable in life with what you ancestors stole after massacring millions and then you were able to profit from their sins

      There are plenty of studies that show disparities today. Disparities from health care, housing, education, to criminal justice. There are studies that disparities in every major aspect of life for poc. Don't take my word for it, look it up.
      Racism isn't as bad as it was. But that's not good enough! It's still alive and well. There are still millions (and I mean millions) of bigots out there. I'm sure you know first hand of some of it

    It’s so interesting how folks want to stay stuck where they are; they never want to “think critically,” but rather hold on to hate because it is seemingly less challenging and far less scary. I can’t believe, know, think differently than I do right now. How very sad for you and more importantly, our country.

    I wasn't alive in the 1950's. Teaching someone to feel bad for something their ancestors did/experienced is another translation or original sin. If the prof. doesn't think CRT should be taught in k-12 or undergrads- she should advocate for BA/BS programs to discontinue using it and advocate for K-12 teachers to stop using it.

      This lady literally said ppl who oppose CRT are trying to say just what you said and you still said it😢
      She clearly said "CRT" is not to blame or shame! It's to explain the disparities. Because amerikkk tried to say blacks were genetically inferior. CRT says it's not about genetics, it's about racist systems. Now if you listen "and comprehend" you know exactly what she's saying. Now if some ppl get offended while the disparities are explained by systemic racism then you must feel guilty. Any person with a good heart would not feel bad because they know racism is real. Black or white.
      So why are you saying she made white ppl feel bad again?

    Where were they when you were reading Huck Finn and other books that made you feel bad? I don't know, maybe in kindergarten... Does that make it ok for white kids to be encouraged to feel bad about themselves today? It almost sounds like revenge. Why not take a forgiving approach - as Nelson Mandella did in S.A.?
    By the way, in Huck Finn, Huck decides he'd rather go to Hell than return Jim to his owner. "Huckleberry Finn" was decidedly anti-slavery... Twain did his best to demonstrate to America that Afro-Americans have souls and are deserving of fair treatment. Reading it makes me cry too - for the inhumanity dealt to Black people... not for Twain's use of the N word. Twain's audience was turn-of-the-century white America. He was showing how things were - not how they should be.
    It's tragic that you were not instructed that Twain was a champion for liberating black people, and that his use of 1900 vernacular was simply to state things as they were, rather than apply polite corrections and substitutions, and misrepresent the racial climate of his time.
    God bless you. I applaud you work.
