    It's not obvious to me (probably because I'm not "the left"). What does the left think of African Americans?

    So... parents that openly threaten school board members should not be investigated? Please answer in words, not far right cartoons.

    This is from a school board member in Florida

    Jenkins said protesters came to her home brandishing weapons, and noted that one woman coughed in her face intentionally when she confronted them. That story is backed up by a police reports from local authorities. She also had one of her trees chopped down and the letters "F U" burned into her lawn with grass killer.

    But you just go ahead and keep minimizing it...

    Please explain to us what CRT is and which 'children' are subject to its teaching.

    Also, what LGBT 'propaganda' is being taught to children?

    Also, please show the 'Socialism' curriculum.

    I want my kids to learn about the shame of slavery and how it was integral to the founding of the US and after the civil war how white America refused to see black America as equals.

    I want my kids to learn about how American exceptionalism was at the cost of the indigenous people. And that Mexicans were in the American southwest before Anglo Americans came in and that telling people to go back to their own country is both hateful and ignorant.

    Germany teaches its youth about the horrors of the Nazis. Either you accept racism against Black Americans is wrong or you oppose teaching their history and attempt to turn it into a slur.

    So you can't answer my questions? Because your response is no where near an answer.

    So, explain CRT and show me school districts where it is being taught to children. Because, I don't think you know what CRT is.

    I don’t want my kids learning about critical race theory about more than I want them to learn about Krebs. Because the concepts are not for elementary schools. But for some reason, conservative struck gold associating black history to collegiate critical race race theory and now every thing they don’t like is either socialism or CRT.

    I think the fact you didn't/can't answer his questions is a clear answer to his questions.

    I have yet to find a person who complains about CRT actually know what CRT is. I have yet to find a person who complains about children being taught CRT in school show me an actual example of a CRT lesson.

    They continue to be Trump Republicans and say stuff yet when pressed on the issues they are unable to show proof. Because that is what they learned from their cult leader.

    You aren't understanding what the issue is. They don't care what the technical definition of Critical Race Theory is, they don't like what is being taught in schools, someone labeled it CRT, so now they oppose CRT in schools. They don't want their kids taught that white people are collectively guilty, that people should be treated differently based on group identity, that they should apologize for things they had nothing to do with, that they are on "stolen" land, that they are benefitting from slavery, etc. Call it whatever you want. Those things and similar are what the parents oppose. Is that Critical Race Theory? No, not really. It is informed by CRT and filtered through multiple layers and broadened for a more general audience.
