Clare Foran has either deleted all history of the article or had never written it. Claiming that she has written something she has not is an act of libel.

While Conservatives are complaining about "Critical Race Theory", this bill is being passed under our noses. This is absurd, and an affront to our alleged "democracy".

I completely missed this while reading through your post the first time, apologies! CRT is a super hot topic amongst our teaching circle right now. I don't....really understand why? I've had people on both sides of the fence explain the "conflict" to me, and it always devolves into migraine inducing arguments.

I looked into it myself (not CRT - that's a given - but the arguments as to why it should or shouldn't be taught), and it seems like a no-brainer to me? We are (supposed) to "teach" on facts and the conversations that arise from them. We can talk about the "facts" about CRT (many of which are kind of horrifying to be honest) without the need to involve "parties" - just like with any other topic.

At least, we're supposed to be able to do that. Two of my colleagues from another district got into a fist fight over whether or not the January 6th movement on the Capitol was an "insurrection" or not. Wasn't pretty.

Just like with religion, I've no issues with teaching CRT. But I try to be as impartial as possible, and I do realize that it's a lot to ask of someone. I doubt that many of my colleagues could teach on religion or CRT without personal feelings or opinions getting involved. But is leaving those topics out of education better than teaching them?

I'm genuinely interested in what others think about that.

edit
For clarification, I rarely "take sides" in the topics that we discuss teaching. If we're talking about teaching religion, for example, I'd insist we teach on multiple religions, and not that one is right or wrong, but from the anthropological point of view. Which I've stated continually to my district....which is why I don't think it'll happen.

She's being censored by the conservative media elites

No thanks, keep archaic values out of modern day teaching.

Maybe propose a bill that teaches kids practical things they'll need to know about the real world after they graduate.

That has nothing to do with what I was saying but okay, I'm ignoring your profile now.

This seems to be a fake article? It's dated June 30th, 2021, which means it would be from this current Congress. However, HR 369 is not at all what is being purported in the unsourced article.

Furthermore, the last action involving HR 369 was on February 4th, 2021, and HR 369's sponsors are all Democrats.

I must confess, this is a fake post. I wanted to see if I could start a legit discussion over something I totally made up but clearly it wasn't convincing enough lol.

Feel free to lock this thread or delete it or whatever
