Should critical race theory be taught in primary and secondary school?
Critical race theory is the claim that institutions, laws, and history are inherently racist. It argues that white people have put up social, economic, and legal barriers between the races in order to maintain their elite status, both economically and politically and that the source of poverty and criminal behavior in minority communities is due exclusively to these barriers.

Critical race theory isn’t being taught in schools, the history of slavery within the British empire is, critical race theory is a high level legal theory learned in universities and similar institutions not in primary or secondary schools.

Yes, but only if taught using factual evidence to back up claims, and only if anti semitism training is included

@8M74R8H3yrs3Y
Yes as long as it educates from both sides and not just from one perspective. This then avoids racism on both sides within the teaching of it
@8SN66Y73yrs3Y
