      And Kendi is not the source of CRT, which has long & winding academic roots, but he is very much where the movement is today on campuses, in schools, & in workplaces. https://twitter.com/Heminator/status/1405939495573278721 …

      When you're talking about government schools, there is no middle ground between government forcing kids to learn something & government refusing to do so. https://www.nationalreview.com/2021/06/what-david-french-gets-wrong-about-critical-race-theory-and-public-schools/ …https://twitter.com/ijbailey/status/1405940765633753090 …

      The question isn't should he be taught. It is should he and others be banned from schools by law. https://twitter.com/baseballcrank/status/1405940143937163272 …

      What does this mean? You are in favor of banning Kendi, what people have referred to as CRT (though it isn't CRT), the 1619 Project and the like?

      Kendi & the 1619 project should not be taught by the government to public K-12 students.

      You're dodging my question. Whether they should or shouldn't be taught is a legit academic question we should grapple with. I'm asking if you believe such ideas should be banned from public schools, by law or other means? Should they?

      The government gets to decide what is taught in government schools by government employees. The people get to run the government. So yes, the governments that run the schools should ban those rather than mandating them, and officials elected by the people should decide.

          Thanks for answering. You are in favor of banning ideas from public schools. Should teaching black kids to revere enslavers also be banned? If not, why?

          The government should not be banning teachers from assigning or neutrally discussing a concept just because it might promote feelings of resentment by one group toward another.

          Ah yes, I remember a teacher neutrally discussing whether Jews had horns or not and assigning the class an essay on the subject. They were just asking questions, the Jewish Question

          The government sets the standards but the curriculum is determined at multiple levels, often down to the individual teacher.

          It is not correct that state legislatures are free to decide what cannot be taught by school districts. The schools can decide for their specific schools, but that is the only governmental level involved. The first amendment’s guarantee of free speech overrides censorship.

          You have just admitted that government should not be in charge of schools. Well done. I agree.
