South Dakota governor pens bill to block race theory in schools, colleges Republican Gov. Kristi Noem has drafted a bill that would block teaching critical race theory in South Dakota schools, public universities and technical colleges. The Sioux Falls Argus Leader reports Noem announced the legislation on Monday. Critical race theory is an academic concept that originated in the 1970s. It focuses on how racism is embedded in legal systems in the United States. South Dakota education officials say critical race theory isn't part of state curriculum in schools or colleges. But Noem said the theory teaches a false and divisive message.
Swing District Dem Calls Opposition to Critical Race Theory a ‘Racist Dog Whistle’ Still, Luria claims that attacks on critical race theory have always "clearly had overtones of being a racist dog whistle." Luria’s district, which President Joe Biden narrowly won in 2020, voted for Youngkin by an 8-point margin.
Not getting into it: How critical race theory laws are cutting short classroom conversations Eight states now have laws restricting how schools can teach about racism and sexism, though they vary widely. All were passed in the wake of the protests for racial justice that defined 2020 — a year that also saw a range of institutions acknowledge the ways they have been shaped by racism. Iowa’s law says teachers can’t describe the U.S. or the state as “systemically racist or sexist,” though schools can teach about racist or sexist policies. In Texas, teachers who discuss a “widely debated and currently controversial issue” must do so “objectively and in a manner free from political bias.” And in Tennessee, the law bans 14 concepts, including the idea that individuals should feel “discomfort, guilt, or anguish” because of their race. The stakes are high: Tennessee teachers who cross the line could lose their teaching licenses, and school systems that look the other way risk losing some state funding.
Yep. You are what you consume and I've had a dogshit sandwich from the Heritage Foundation before, not having seconds.
