"When you look at those who do support a ban on CRT, you'll find the vast majority of those people support an honest teaching and education, including teaching about slavery and racism," said Kathi Griffin, the IEA President, in a presentation last week.

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

So what they’re saying is what I learned about slavery 40 years ago was not accurate. What new history have they uncovered that I wasn’t taught.
PG, that you are personally guilty to this day and must $pay-up$…get with the program!!
“We absolutely know that critical race theory is not taught in K-12 schools,” Griffin said.”
This is a lie. They teach all the elements of CRT without calling it CRT: white people are bad, BIPOC have no control over their lives because of systemic racism, police kill millions of unarmed black men a year, white people enjoy white privilege, white people have unconscious biases, your denial of system racism is evidence of your own racism, Columbus was a bad man, indigenous people are mythical peaceful people….
“… people support an honest teaching and education …”
An honest teaching and education does not include CRT – human beings are not born inherently anything based on the color of their skin. Teaching such nonsense to children should not only be banned, but should be crminalized.
