Should we ban Critical Race Theory from being taught? One would think that to answer that, you need a good definition of what Critical Race Theory is. Not so. What you need is an understanding of what those who are calling for the ban see as Critical Race Training.
Go to a website titled, Criticalrace.org. It advertises itself as, "A free resource for parents and students concerned about the negative impact Critical Race Training has on education. Search our database of over 200 colleges and universities to learn more about Critical Race Training on campuses nationwide."
So, what type of activity does is cite? What thing could end up being banned? Thumb through what it lists as some of the examples of Critical Race Training:
At Linfield University, "For Black History Month, 2021, Linfield hosted a webinar with DelRay McKesson on ending police violence."
At the University of Kentucky, "Administration will be revising its free-speech policies."
At Boise State University, "BSU offers a Language, Race, and Ethnicity Speakers Series."
At the University of Idaho, "President's letter on the death of George Floyd."
At Brigham Young University, "BYU's committee aims to 'understand both the subtle and overt ways that racism may impact individual thought and interactions, organizational units, processes, policies, practices, procedures, and operations."
At the University of Central Florida, "UCF Libraries provided a guide titled, 'Diversity & Education: Ethnicity & Racial Resources.' "
