Some media outlets and left-leaning activists maintain that harmful Critical Race Theory is not being taught in Washington public schools, but new evidence has emerged showing that CRT will be part of two upcoming teacher-training conferences.
Critical Race Theory (CRT) and Diversity, Inclusion and Equity (DEI) are among the racial concepts mandated in public education under SB 5044, the bill signed by Governor Inslee in May 2021.
Under Critical Race Theory students are told that America was founded in 1619 to promote slavery, that major institutions like local schools and state universities are systematically racist, and that white students in class are “oppressors” while other students are “victims.”
