MSNBC Lies About CRT in School While Debating Rep. Byron Donalds
/Congressman Byron Donalds sparred with MSNBC host Joy Reid over several topics, including critical race theory and whether it was being taught in schools or not.
“Critical race theory comes from critical theory. And, essentially, what it does at the graduate level, it talks about the implications of racial politics in the past, and in American history, their impact on society today.”
Reid continuously interrupted Rep. Donalds, who co-authored two pieces of legislation to ban critical race theory from schools. But Donalds was able to explain if CRT is distilled down into classrooms for younger kids, you can’t have the detailed and nuanced conversations necessary that take place at the graduate level.
Reid then accused Donalds of not wanting to teach children about racial history in America and claimed, “Critical race theory is not taught in a single K-12 school.”
This is a claim Reid continuously makes. She’s one of the media’s biggest cheerleaders on critical race theory. During the Kyle Rittenhouse trial, she even once said, “We need critical race theory in this country!”
Reid once even brought CRT cofounder Kimberle Crenshaw on her show to debunk that critical race theory was in schools. Crenshaw denied it, but she’s participated in events that highlight infusing “insights” of CRT into K-12 schools.
In 2021, the National Education Association adopted an agenda to combat anti-CRT rhetoric. The Mississippi Bend Area Education Agency had a training with CRT, with teaching from Critical Race Theory: An Introduction. In one training slide, it listed “Make America Great Again” as an example of “covert white supremacy.” In Loudon County, a teacher tearfully resigned after airing out her grievances with the school district, which included being told in an equity training that “white, Christian, abled-bodied females currently have the power in our schools and this has to change.”
The Superintendent of Detroit Public Schools, Nikolai Vitti, also admitted to intentionally embedding critical race theory into their school subjects.
Not all schools are as obvious as Detroit, but critical race theory “insights” are being funneled through schools as equity training or DEI, which stands for diversity, equity, and inclusion. The reason why they push equity and not equality is that race-neutral policies are not the desirable agenda of critical race theorists. Even the Democrat Party’s official platform rejects race-neutral policies, which means they’re openly promoting racism to fight so-called racism.
People are too diverse. Even if you have people starting all at the same level, you can’t produce an equal outcome without enforcing injustice.
Critical race theorists are “avowedly political,” (Words That Wound: Critical Race Theory, Assaultive Speech, and the First Amendment). There’s a level of activism in CRT, and if you were trying to change the world, tear down the system, and rebuild it, why would you wait for the chance that children graduate high school, college, and then go to law school?
You wouldn’t. You would indoctrinate early, and that’s what’s happening in our schools.
