Teachers across the U.S. have continued efforts to fight against
critical race theory being taught in their schools. Reports on
Thursday cited a recent survey showing 55 percent of teachers said the
option to teach CRT in K-12 education should not exist.

Parents across the country have also publicly opposed the teachings be
added to the curriculum of their children’s education. Almost half of
U.S. states have proposed legislation against the indoctrination of
children through CRT in public schools.

#CriticalRaceTheory is a Marxist ideology that sees the world as a
battle, not between the classes – as classical Marxism does – but
between the races. It’s inherently bigoted. pic.twitter.com/7jhyzbTPnP

The survey was conducted by the Association of American Educators and
over 1,000 responses from teachers across the country were collected.
Results showed 96 percent of schools were not requiring curriculum to
include CRT. This suggests the recent frenzy that has been projected
by the media does not accurately depict what has been happening in
classrooms.

The majority of teachers reported no changes were made to their
curriculums regarding race amidst the past year’s CRT movement. In
fact, many teachers who submitted to the survey shared concerns the
CRT debate was interfering with more constructive discussions
addressing race.

Five states have signed bills banning critical race theory from being
taught in public schools. Lawmakers in 17 other states have proposed
legislation to limit these teachings.
