Soviet immigrant says critical race theory uses 'the same concepts and language' as Marxism
 [Washington Examiner] An immigrant from the Soviet Union to the United States is warning against critical race theory, saying school curricula drawing from it resemble the Marxism that once flourished in the USSR.Elina Kaplan, who said she's a registered Democrat, said in particular that the state ethnic studies model curriculum in California reflects what she was taught as a child. "All of a sudden, I was reading the same concepts and language, in English this time, in the guiding principles of the California Ethnic Studies model curriculum," Kaplan said Friday. The California Board of Education approved its model curriculum March 18, which defines ethnic studies as a field that "critically grapples with the various power structures and forms of oppression that continue to have social, emotional, cultural, economic, and political impacts."
