Oh man, this is where it’s starting to get good!

“While speaking outside of a middle school where anti-critical race theory demonstrators were, NAACP Vice President Michelle Leete said: "Let's deny this off-key band of people that are anti-education, anti-teacher, anti-equity, anti-history, anti-racial … anti-opportunities, anti-help people, anti-diversity, [inaudible], anti-science, anti-change agent, anti-social justice, anti-health care, anti-worker, anti-LGBTQ+, anti-children, anti-health care, anti-worker, anti-environment, anti-admissions policy change, anti-inclusion, anti-live and let live – let them die!"”
Here’s the thing… I know a Jewish couple that attended. They are generally progressive and consider themselves LGBTQ friendly, pro-science (hell, he’s an environmental scientist), pro-education (she’s an administrator in the district), pro-Obamacare, etc… They just disagree with CRT, vehemently. Their daughters will be attending the elementary school where this took place. They are livid right now. The identity politics that have been at the center of Democratic policy for the last how many decades are about to come home to roost. 2022 might be a bloodbath.
How do the feminists respond if a trans wins a gold in a women’s event at this Olympics?

The Democrats are not stupid. They're realizing that "Defund the Police" is a non-starter for most people.
In 15 months, they'll come around to realize that many of the other things they're promoting are stupid as well.
15 months ago, who heard of CRT?
No one.
Now it's on the front burner. It'll die (the death it deserves).

Dunno. The NEA and a lot of the teachers have really bought into this one...

The NEA
Defund the NEA.
I'm serious. Completely dismantle it, and replace it with anything else.

I'm a little surprised CRT is well defined enough to even be discussed.
it's not. I often make the point that we should 'taboo' (as in the game) the word 'CRT' and discuss component ideas.
