Well said. Systematic racism is REAL. I don’t know why this is so hard for white people to accept (I am white, btw). I was well aware of this when I was a young child growing up in the south, and greatly disturbed by it.

Teaching critical race theory in K-12 education could unintentionally perpetuate divisions rather than promote unity. For instance, a focus on racial identity and historical injustices might lead to increased tension among students of different races, instead of fostering understanding and empathy. A potential alternative could be to teach about historical events and their consequences without emphasizing racial divisions. This way, we can educate students about the past without creating new rifts. What do you think about this approach, and how would you address these concerns?
