In September 2020 the Trump administration issued an executive order which prohibited federal agencies, companies with federal contracts and recipients of federal grants from participating in training that “promotes race or sex-stereotyping or scapegoating.” Prohhibted topics include “divisive concepts” in which one race or sex is inherently superior to another; the U.S. is fundamentally racist or sexist and a person should feel some form of psychological distress on account of their race or sex. In January 2021 President Biden revoked the executive order and issued a new order which affirmed that “equal opportunity is the bedrock of American democracy, and our diversity in one of our country’s greatest strengths.”

No, and it shouldn't exist. These programs tend to be very one sided and hypocritical.
@8HXBYDJ5yrs5Y
Only if it includes insensitivity towards white people too
@HelcovichEmireRepublican5mos5MO
I'd still rather no sensitivity training at all, as sensitivity makes people weak
@HelcovichEmireRepublican 7mos7MO
No, no one should be forced to learn about something that has nothing to do with their job, forcing people to be sensitive to the feelings of those who are overly sensitive is violating freedom of speech and expression of that person, it is not the speaker's fault if someone is so easily offended by something that they say
@9W3FGXC 12mos12MO
No, it is a violation of the 1st amendment & they can suck it up, the world doesn't revolve around these mentally insane psychos who have no life most likely because of parenting & the education system.
@9JNM34RLibertarian2yrs2Y
No, mandating such training can be counterproductive and potentially infringe upon the principles of free speech and individual thought.
@9JB9TZCRepublican2yrs2Y
No, everyone has their own opinions and they should not be forced to do something based off their opinions
@9FK5JNS2yrs2Y
No, this will only exacerbate racism
@8N59JTT5yrs5Y
no because if we are all about equality then we should all be treated the same.
@9BXY3FJ2yrs2Y
No, just ensure there are clear guidelines, action, and accountability for acts of discrimination and TREAT EVERYONE EQUALLY under MORAL, ETHICAL and Constitutionally COMPLIANT LAWS!
@925TCZ44yrs4Y
Yes, as long as it covers all protected groups (age, sex, race, disability, sexual orientation, religion) and is not based on critical race theory and extend the requirement to private companies as well.
@8Z63X624yrs4Y
No. Let’s stop being so sensitive.
@8Z63X624yrs4Y
No, and limit big government.
@8Z63X624yrs4Y
No, limit government interference.
@8Z63X624yrs4Y
No, this only protects race opposite of Caucasian and enables abuse of drug traffickers.
@8YQBCV64yrs4Y
There is only 1 race, the human race.
@8VMZ7J34yrs4Y
No. This is just another way for the government to divide us and make us hate each other.
@8S8KM7X4yrs4Y
We need to say that everyone is equal, and we need to treat everyone the same.
@8PY55BJRepublican5yrs5Y
No, it is ridiculous to force employees to do racial sensitivity training
@8PLYFN9Constitution5yrs5Y
CRT is NOT racial sensitivity training, it's racist, vile, disgusting cult meetings where you're forced to condemn your own whiteness.
@8PJRPK75yrs5Y
No, and abolish racial sensitivity training programs.

@8K2JWK85yrs5Y
No, most racial sensitivity training have ulterior motives and created a greater divide.

No, unless there is demonstrable harm being done, there should never be any considerations regarding discrimination since it is abused more often than beneficial.
@97Y75BL3yrs3Y
No, and ban all racial sensitivity training.

No, and abolish all racial sensitivity training programs.

@593F7MN5yrs5Y
The more we continue to focus on our racial differences the longer the issue will continue
@8HT6RL45yrs5Y
No, not until critical theory is no longer involved with modern sociology practices
