Legislation aims to ban critical race theory from classrooms
HOUSTON – Texas teachers could not be forced to take sides on any “currently controversial issues of public policy or social affairs” and would be limited in how they talk about things like systemic racism and white privilege if a new bill becomes law.
The so-called “Critical Race Theory” bill, passed by the Texas House in early May and by the Texas Senate (with some changes) last weekend, was originally authored by Rep. Steve Toth from The Woodlands.
Murray State University historian Brian Clardy says the right-wing wig-out over Critical Race Theory reminds him of the castor oil he took as a kid. “It tasted awful but you knew it was good for you.” A slew of conservatives, almost all of them white, gag at CRT.
