I do agree with this statement. I believe a lot of politics/what is being taught in school is dividing the American people. The majority of people (at least the ones I have spoken to) Do not care about critical race theory. All it is doing is dividing our people and causing more issues than there needs to be.

 @9GSZ44P from Colorado agreed…6mos6MO

I agree with the comment. Its 2023, black and white people are treated the same. Nobody treats black people bad, statistics show black and colored people commit more crimes then white people. So from a police standpoint, of course cops are going to be more concered with colored people. They cause more issues.

statistics show black and colored people commit more crimes then white people

I don't even have time to get into everything about this comment, but here is a loose summary: This is (1) incorrect and even if it was correct it would be (2) an oversimplification. Do you mean crime in general? Violent crime? Blue-collar crime? (3) If we are speaking generally, statistics show that white people commit more crimes than people of color (though I'll give it to you that it is only slightly more) mostly because it's a numbers game: white people are the majority. Think about how likely it is that the group representing the majority of the U.S. population (white people) would for some reason be the minorityRead more

In absolute terms, more crimes are committed by whites, but the rates are higher among blacks, at least when it comes to violent crime. This is the main reason why blacks have higher incarceration rates and why they're more likely to get shot by police.

 @9GR5M5S from Maryland agreed…6mos6MO

i agree with this, schools should not be teaching this to kids since especially in k-8 kids are very impressionable and will belive everything they hear even if its not true

 @9GTFPKV from Colorado agreed…6mos6MO

I support local schools choosing to teach kids what they want in respect to race however I would oppose a local battle against schools to fight critical race theory.

 @9GRDWTF from Nevada agreed…6mos6MO

I strongly disagree with the Critical Race Theory, because it is teaching children to be and think racist.

 @9GWDTHH from California agreed…6mos6MO

I believe that critical race theory is destructive because it divides Americans against each other on the basis of race, turns children against America, and teaches white people to hate themselves for something their ancestors did hundreds of years ago. While it makes sense to address racism in our history that has been previously covered up, this is not the way to do it. Critical race theorists are malicious “cultural Marxists” who seek to destroy patriotism and faith in the American Dream.

 @9GRPB8LRepublican from South Carolina agreed…6mos6MO

i agree wih this statement CRT is an anti-american theory that is degrading the united states society

 @9GRML48 from New York agreed…6mos6MO

Critical Race Theory is inherently racist in nature against the white people in the nation. It is fine to tell history in its good and bad context but it’s terrible to brainwash kids into thinking they are less than due to their ancestors actions.

 @9GR6K8X from Texas agreed…6mos6MO

I just believe CRT is just wrong to at least teach in school. Some people support the belief in CRT but I do not. Parents should teach their children political views and right vs wrong instead of the Schools. The school's teaching CRT is just the same as schools teaching specific religious beliefs which is already ruled out of the school systems.

 @9GR5B5N from Arkansas agreed…6mos6MO

I feel that this statement is accurate to the current state of affairs in the U.S. Critical race theory only makes the differences between races more apparent, perpetuating the ideas of racism rather than working to eliminate the differences between races through integration or critical thinking.

 @9GR6BKC from Idaho agreed…6mos6MO

I strongly disagree with the Critical Race Theory. I disagree with it because it is utterly trying to turn children against the United States of America by saying that the United States is racist and should not be taught in the educational system.

 @9GR5TNMagreed…6mos6MO

I agree with the comment. I disagree with critical race theory because it is teaching children to hate others especially those of white descent. White people now did not contribute at all to slavery from 200 years ago.

 @9GVX2Z5 from Ohio agreed…6mos6MO

I strongly agree with this comment. It's not my fault that my ancestors were just doing what they thought was a normal thing to do back then.

 @9GSRHXY from Texas disagreed…6mos6MO

Firstly, this stance implies that it is more important that one remains loyal to the United States than it is that they are educated. This is a very concerning conviction. Secondly, the United States is racist.

 @9GRWGN2Democrat from Washington disagreed…6mos6MO

I strongly agree with the Critical Race Theory, because it is showing children how the US has acted in the past, and how we are trying to improve now.

 @9GRVXGF from New Hampshire disagreed…6mos6MO

History is history and learning from the past to prevent the same mistakes and learn empathy towards people who may have been harmed in the past is important

 @9GRJ83W from Tennessee disagreed…6mos6MO

Critical Race Theory isn’t about turning children against the U.S. or saying that the country is racist. Its a more accurate look at history where race has been a factor for various reasons. The U.S. and our society here have racist ideologies and behaviors ingrained in us from the inaccurate history we’ve been teaching in schools.

 @9GRCBDQWorkersfrom Maine disagreed…6mos6MO

I strongly agree with the critical race theory because it shows the u.s. is racist and maybe someday we can all make a change

 @9GRBGBT from Massachusetts disagreed…6mos6MO

It isn't saying that the U.S. is racist, it's only pointing out injustices in the past. We must know the mistakes of our past to correct them in the future.

 @9GR99VHDemocrat from California disagreed…6mos6MO

the US was built on foundations that relied on slavery, so the country's systems are literally fundamentally racist

 @9GR5XVF from Arizona disagreed…6mos6MO

Critical Race Theory gives students access to the knowledge necessary for them to draw their own informed opinion.

 @9GR5CHDdisagreed…6mos6MO

It is not saying the US is racist,it is educating students from a young age not to judge or treat someone differently based on there skin tone.

 @9GR4ZHVdisagreed…6mos6MO

Critical Race Theory is a vital part of showing and helping students understand the devastating effects of past and present racism and discrimination in the United States, and the impact it has on minority communities today both socially and economically.

 @9GR4WT7 from Wyoming disagreed…6mos6MO

Historically, people of color have been underrepresented and oppressed. By teaching Critical Race Theory we teach children the importance of learning from past mistakes and not making them again.

 @9GVHDVMWomen’s Equality from Arizona disagreed…6mos6MO

I strongly disagree with the Critical Race Theory, because it is turning children against the U.S. and saying that the U.S. is racist.

 @9GR5K6G from North Carolina agreed…6mos6MO

I strongly disagree with the Critical Race Theory, because it is turning children against the U.S. and saying that the U.S. is racist.

 @9GRTGG2 from Texas agreed…6mos6MO
