This so much reminds me of the story of guy who was caught up in a flood and first someone came to help him and he said no that the Lord will rescue him, then a boat came, and again he said no saying that the Lord will save him, then when the man is on the roof of his house staying just above the flood waters a helicopter comes by to rescue him and again he says no that the Lord will save him, and eventually he drowns. Goes to heaven and says Lord why did you not save me - the Lord says - what do you mean I sent a person, a boat and a helicopter and you did not let yourself use anyone of them.

My point is that even when you present the facts of the foundation of CRT and the creator of it, the blind and delusional teachers still cling to it as they believe it will save them...

One of the most insightful and intelligent takes on our modern, insane, culturally profane, political religion.

Your "Teach them. . . " list is perfect. I have been angry about this for several years now, as this blame game started to creep into my grandson's relationship with his best friend when they were only in the 5th grade. The grandson is white; friend is black, and at home, the friend was hearing that white people are racists--even though the boys had spent many nights in each other's homes since the boys were in kindergarten! The families were friendly. But the friendship suffered because Aidan was not allowed to simply declare himself "not a racist."

We're not doing that nasty thing you accuse us of but it would be a good thing if we were!

For sure the debate and reformation is needed --- are there enough of us to make it happen?

Governor Cox (R-UT) should ban funding for DEI programs as antithetical to what is good for students and what taxpayers expect. Without funding, DEI programs at all levels will DIE.

I am troubled by ascribing apparently high appreciation of Martin Luther who became a virulent anti-Semite in his later years because if his failure to convert European Jews to Christianity.

We are all highly complex creatures with dynamic forces working inside us at all times. I don't think it is appropriate to condemn Martin Luther for what he did in his later life. At this point in history, the Sierra Club is trying to divest itself of any connection to John Muir and the USA is desperately trying to get us to forget about Stonewall Jackson, Nathan Bedford Forrest, Robert E. Lee, the traitorous behavior of Kamala Harris, and the criminality and incompetence of Joe Biden's entire administration.

I'm pointing out a Martin Luther characteristic that most don't know of that fills out his life. Some might say that it makes Luther somewhat less of a hero than the parents of MLK Jr. might have known. He's famous for the letters on the door but not hateful thoughts and behavior.
