Critical Race Theory Proponent Ibram X. Kendi to Speak at Teachers' Union Conference
2021-07-08
[BREITBART] The American Federation of Teachers (AFT) will feature Critical Race Theory

...teaches that skin color is the most important characteristic of any person, which translates to separate but equal with a different bunch in charge. All whites are born racist and racism permeates every aspect of society, which should be dismantled and the remains turned over to the kind of dipshit who pushes this nonsense...
champion Ibram X. Kendi Wednesday during its biennial TEACH (Together Educating America’s Children) professional development conference.

Kendi, the author of Antiracist Baby, has received the backing of the Biden Education Department.

In April, Education Secretary Miguel Cardona’s office proposed a rule that called for the development of "culturally responsive teaching" in American History and Civics and held up the widely discredited "1619 Project" as a model for schools to teach these subjects.

The rule intends to establish priorities for grants in American History and Civics Education programs that incorporate Critical Race Theory-based curricula, such as the "1619 Project."

The department elaborated on its proposal, with a reference to Kendi:

Accordingly, schools across the country are working to incorporate anti-racist practices into teaching and learning. As the scholar Ibram X. Kendi has expressed, "[a]n antiracist idea is any idea that suggests the racial groups are equals in all their apparent differences—that there is nothing right or wrong with any racial group. Antiracist ideas argue that racist policies are the cause of racial inequities." ... It is critical that the teaching of American history and civics creates learning experiences that validate and reflect the diversity, identities, histories, contributions, and experiences of all students.

#3  Were it not for his name, Ibram Xolani Kendi (born Ibram Henry Rogers) his bio reads like one of those privileged academic white people with a head full of mush.
