The more our legislators get involved in education, the worst the results. If you want to change how schools work, quit being a legislator and run for school board in a local school district.
If that’s too much work for you, pull your kids and send them to a charter school with your tax vouchers. Let the public school system fail with no students in it.
“Chalkbeat” is funded by the likes of Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Ford Foundation and other leftist globalists… no wonder they lionize the liberal teachers, interviewing several of them, with no interviews of concerned parents and making parents out to be the “bad guy”.
Fear of teacher shortage? Ha ha ha, if Indiana doesn’t get CRT / 1619 / DEI out of public schools then parents are going to pull their kids out and there will be a shortage of students in public schools, which will lead to a shortage of teachers jobs.
This is the most one-sided article I have read recently. Protecting our schools from bad ideas like CRT does not equal “white-washing”. Just because there is opposition to the narrative does not mean those that oppose it are at the opposite extreme.
Bingo.
As a 50 year old conservative white guy I cannot understand the fear of teaching American and World History based on facts. I believe that America is the greatest country throughout world history, but it does not mean we are perfect. Nobody and no country is or ever can be perfect. I think we all agree that slavery was wrong and so was (is) the way we have treated the American Indians. Do we erase this history from our school curriculum? Yes if we are Russia or China, but not if we are the United States of America (the greatest country of all time)!
Thank you, conservative white guy! You are absolutely correct, teaching our kids about our country’s imperfections is not a threat, and in fact, addressing problems and shortcomings is the only way a great country can get better. And, NO ONE is teaching CRT in our schools; that is a bogeyman created on purpose to stir up conservatives for political gain, thanks to Christopher Rufo, who is pretty upfront about his dishonest intentions. (https://www.newyorker.com/news/annals-of-inquiry/how-a-conservative-activist-invented-the-conflict-over-critical-race-theory). So, let’s see, spreading dishonest propaganda to mislead the masses, preventing the teaching of actual fact and history, you’re right–that is what they do in Russia and China. And apparently also in Indiana and other states dominated by this backward thinking disguised as conservatism.

Fascinating that the Republicans are pushing this on the premise of making sure people don’t feel uncomfortable. I thought making sure that nobody ever felt uncomfortable was the realm of snowflakes.
Not THAT’S funny, Matthew B.! Bravo!
Why such a slanted article? This is a straightforward propaganda piece and does nothing to contextualize the issue. And in the IBJ? What in the world is going on with our business community?
As soon as young students 3rd grade start learning history, up to that point all kids play together. But after the beginings of the teaching of past slavery, black parents make sure their kids share their parent’s view on race. By 4th grade, the black kids hung together, separate from others. It happened naturally
Gosh, Doug. You have it backwards there. Well before 3rd grade, Black kids learn that plenty of white people look down on them with hatred or contempt. If you were their parent, you’d tell them how it is so they can begin to cope with a lifetime of discrimination. That and how to act when stopped by the police for BS reasons to avoid being shot and killed for a broken taillight.
A “ Chalkbeat” regurgitation recognizable just by the headline. This is garbage content, IBJ
I wonder if CRT teaches that Margaret Sanger founded Planned Parenthood as a tool of eugenics to suppress the births of African Americans to remove them from the general population.
Don’t bet on it, D.H.
Time to start funding my savings account for private school if we don’t get this ideology out of public schools.
Slavery happened. Teach it. It was bad!
Now onto math, science, and some good old fashion values and ethics to live by. Like hard work, respect, and kindness.
Enough of the resent-filled propaganda.
Nah, Donnie; that’s too boring and useful. Better to teach everyone that they are either the oppressed or the oppressors. That way, we’ll all get along better…albeit ignorant and/or stupid and easily led astray be our would be masters.
I’m old enough to remember my teachers teaching me history based on facts, the good, the bad, and the ugly, without inserting their own opinions. They encouraged us students to form our own opinions. And they never placed blame on any of us or made us feel that we were somehow responsible for past events.
