Thanks for the perspective on the negative effects of CRT expanding beyond college level curriculums. I hadn't considered that anti-CRT efforts would expand into Black authors, which is dumb of me because that's exactly what happened in the Virginia gubernatorial elections re: Toni Morrison.

In a CRTA primer for white people I wrote for An Injustice, I pointed out to white whiners that Tucker Carlson and his crew of white nationalists have done more for CRT than its propenents have been able to do in its 40 years of existence.

It's getting into K-12 curriculums because of the publicity. That part is cool, and it's fun to see these jack asses sabotage themselves. But along the way we will see stuff like you describe here.

It's a worthy battle, though. CRT is as important to American history as the Revolutionary War. No. More so.

I'm an optimist. I believe it will be a standard part of the K-12 curriculum as white people my age start to die off, as long as we can shove the younger white nationalists back under the rocks where they belong.
