Present and former members of the Ohio State Board of Education are opposed to the use of a racial lens when teaching education in the state.
Dr. Jenny Shafer Kilgore, Kirsten Hill and Lisa Woods all spoke during multiple hours of testimony at a recent hearing in support of a bill that would eliminate the use of “divisive” subjects that may “promote” certain ideologies over others.
