CRT — What Can I Do?
Most Americans hope that the dream of Martin Luther King Jr. will be fulfilled and children will grow up in a nation where they would “not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” Recently, a Loudoun County, Virginia, mother pulled her children from public school after her six-year-old asked if she was “born evil” because she’s white. King’s dream may not be possible if we allow this new CRT racism to grow.
The New Racism
Until recently, most Americans believed that we were moving beyond racism. We hoped that the dream of Martin Luther King Jr., would be fulfilled, his children would grow up in a nation where they would “not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.” But that may not be possible. A new racism is spreading across America.
Racism in Everything
Stamped (For Kids) is an adaptation of Stamped: Racism, Antiracism, and You. This book makes Critical Race Theory (CRT) accessible for children. That alone would be troublesome, but this book generalizes, glosses over inconvenient facts, and in other places is factually incorrect.
