Critical Race Theory: National Parents’ Group Publishes Guide on How to Fight It

U.S. Parents Involved in Education (USPIE) published a resource guide Monday for parents who are waging battles against Critical Race Theory (CRT) in their local school districts.

The national parents’ organization, which grew out of the battle against the Common Core State Standards, has been urging state lawmakers to ban CRT in K-12 schools.

CRT is a Marxist-based philosophy that embraces the concept that all social and cultural issues should be viewed through the lens of race and ethnicity.

Left-wing school boards often now deny they train in or teach “Critical Race Theory” because the phrase has grown toxic, as CRT researcher Christopher Rufo tweeted above. USPIE recommends:

Look for classes like Global Learners Initiative, Global Social Theory and Diversity Clubs. Then look for words like equity (not equality), racial justice, anti-racism, and social or political activism or action. These are words from the racist, divisive, unproven theory that asserts all Blacks are oppressed and all Whites are oppressors and goes by the name of “Critical Race Theory.”

The organization recommends parents gather their facts about what exactly is being taught in schools, not only by reviewing their children’s assignments and checking papers brought home, but also by searching their school district’s website for information about teacher trainings, departments or committees that focus on “diversity, equity, and inclusion,” and reading minutes of school board meetings if they have not attended in person.
