Is your kid going to a university that engages in Critical Race Theory propaganda?

There are likely very few, as in single digits, four year universities that are not exposing their students to critical race theory, or some form of it, that includes the military service academies which are now “woke”.

Has Trump's EO on this been "overturned" by another EO? If a school receives federal money I think it applies (or did).

We'll be down to a small handful of schools to choose from by the time our 2yo and 7mo old are college age. Hillsdale. And some Christian schools, and there are only a few of those I would want my kid to attend. Covenant College in Lookout Mountain and Reformation Bible College.

I realize we equip our kids to deal with this BS, but I have a feeling it's going to be all there is by then, outside of math (racist) and hard sciences (same + already tainted with nonscience in a lot of places).

I guess we'll go back to farming.

Very similar to Hillsdale

Not to hijack, but Hillsdale has some good free online courses for anyone interested. Currently doing one on WWII and Victor Davis Hanson is the lecturer.

Is this actually a real problem or something that’s exaggerated by Ben Shapiro? I’m not denying it exists or that large schools employ some crank in the women’s studies department who teaches it, but the suggestion that most students are taught it or otherwise indoctrinated by it doesn’t seem real. My brother graduated from a school in New England within the past 5 years and he has never even heard of it, nor was he taught it by another name.

1. I don't see Ben Shapiro's name anywhere on the website I linked to.

2. IF you take a few moments to look at the long list of colleges, you will see that there are small schools, large schools and everything in between. There are state schools and private schools. And the schools are in every part of the country.

3. IF you take a few moments to look at the long list, you will be able to see what form the indoctrination is taking, and what actions are being taken on campus by administration, student organizations, etc.

4. We have personally seen it in the past year through textbooks used in courses, faculty selection, messages from the university president, etc.

So yes, educate yourself before accusing conservatives in ignorance!

As an aside, a good counter to crt is that black people actually were economically better off to also include higher rates of marriage 50-70 years ago compared to today.

Moynihan Report

quote:

---

The Negro Family: The Case For National Action, commonly known as the Moynihan Report, was a 1965 report on black poverty in the United States written by Daniel Patrick Moynihan, an American sociologist serving as Assistant Secretary of Labor under President Lyndon B. Johnson. Moynihan argued that the rise in black single-mother families was caused not by a lack of jobs, but by a destructive vein in ghetto culture, which could be traced to slavery times and continued discrimination in the American South under Jim Crow. Black sociologist E. Franklin Frazier had introduced that idea in the 1930s, but Moynihan was considered one of the first academics to defy conventional social-science wisdom about the structure of poverty.

---

The report concluded that the high rate of families headed by single mothers would greatly hinder progress of blacks toward economic and political equality. The Moynihan Report was criticized by liberals at the time of publication, and its conclusions remain controversial.

I was surprised to see Auburn on there. I assumed that was a pretty conservative place.

This whole ordeal makes the prospect of sending kids to college somewhere very risky.

Oh it not only exists - it has become pervasive. It is why there is so much marxist discourse and support.

It has been infiltrating the American education system since the late 1970s and fully entrenched since the late 1980s, pervasive since the last 10 years or so. So a generation is blind to truth, hindered in terms of REAL thinking.. and promptly on to the next bitchfest over a subject invariably misstated and even less understood.

Disaster from marxists
