Critical Race theory teaches about industrilaized racism. When teaching history chronologically, these factors get lost in the details but it should be taught at some point that the U.S. has a history of legislative racism.

 @B9V8PQ9 from Missouri  agreed…5mos5MO

Correct. Often times children who aren't taught proper Critical Race Theory at a younger age who grow up with parents who don't share these views are more inclined to act racist.

CRT is important to teach in schools because racism is taught and acknowledging systemic indifference is a way to curve past wrongdoings and provide minorities with understanding and empathy.

 @B9W4CK7 from Mississippi  disagreed…5mos5MO

I strongly believe that teacher should teach students about the right way on treating a person regardless on them race, gender, nor skin color.

 @B9VL2XH from North Carolina  disagreed…5mos5MO

There is no such thing as "white privilege" nor is there anything saying that one race is better than anther. So the fact that teaching it is an option is not ethically right.

Kids learning not to be racist is one of those things in life that they learn on their own. The last things that kids are worried about is the color of another person's skin.

 @B9V4R52Republican from Pennsylvania  disagreed…5mos5MO

Children have no reason to be learning critical race theory in school given the fact that most schools side with the left views on racism and their teachings provide more reason for younger generations to act like their victims

Yes, History will repeat itself if people don’t learn about it and I understand your intention. However, when you take a topic like this by flipping history on its head and make sweeping generalizations about anything (in this case, a certain group of people), the argument is invalid because CRT is based on a logical fallacy- just like the racists of yesteryear.

Race theory and social structures that have resulted in systemic racism, slavery, etc., are issues far too complex to teach to children. Perhaps offering optional courses for 10-12th would be beneficial, but generally schools should instead pivot focus to foster greater civic responsibility, empathy, and kindness to build stronger moral bases in children.
