With his signature, the governor of Washington state has officially approved a plan to subject public school staff to Critical Race Theory, which means teachers and principals who are white will be expected to help “dismantle” institutional racism by admitting they are racist oppressors of their minority students.
Gov. Jay Inslee, currently serving a third term, has signed a bill that requires school districts to use a professional learning day to address “cultural competency, diversity, equity and inclusion.”
After flying under the radar for years, Critical Race Theory is taking a beating in the media and in politics after corporate employees, federal workers, and school children have been forced to sit through race-based training that claims white people are inherently racist and oppress minorities. Many whites are unaware of that truth, the training states, hence the need for a program to acknowledge their racism or, in the example of Coca-Cola’s training, to “be less white, less arrogant, less certain, less defensive, less ignorant, and more humble.”
A co-sponsor of the bill has told the media the legislation does not address Critical Race Theory and, in fact, The Spokesman-Review newspaper reported in an April story the words “Critical Race Theory” are nowhere in the bill.
And that appears to be true. Yet knowledgeable critics of CRT can easily spot it despite left-wing denials thanks to familiar buzz words such as “whiteness,” referring to Caucasians’ racist tendencies, and references to “equity,” which relates not to equal opportunities but equal Marxist, classless outcomes.
The bill’s official title states its goal is “dismantling institutional racism” in the public schools, which is a reference to the claim white supremacist beliefs are imbedded in institutions such as capitalism, politics, media, and academia, and therefore hold back minorities.
Laurie Higgins of the Illinois Family Institute knows the history behind CRT, which is that it springs from Critical Theory that was brought to the U.S. from European communists in the 1930s. The premise of Critical Theory, she points outs, is that people are unknowingly the victims of oppressors in economics, law, and politics, and the only way to break free is through a revolution.
“It’s the whole construct of we’re going to divide society up into who are the oppressors and who are the oppressed,” she tells One News Now.
In February, in her own state of Illinois, Higgins says the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Administrative Rules approved a rule for indoctrinating teachers with CRT.
“If you graduate, you have to come out of a program, a teacher training program, that promotes leftist ideas that emerge from Critical Race Theory,” Higgins warns. “So they’re ensuring that all new teachers coming into all Illinois schools will have to be indoctrinated with Critical Race Theory.”

Profiling? “If a Dalmatian has been biting the children in the neighborhood, I think we’re going to look for a black and white dog.”
We the People judge not by the color of one’s skin, but by the contents of their character.
I.A.W. U.S. Census & FBI (Table 43a)
Black males make up about 6% of the U.S. population but every year commit ~53% of all the murders and ~55% of all robberies in the U.S..
Logic is lost on leftists.
Look at the stories on here today regarding race. All of these so-called solutions to a non-existent problem is nothing less than forced compliance. The road everybody wants to go down with the **** is going to make it impossible for Blacks and Whites to get along.
And if you’ve been listening to the news about all the violence/attacks/brawls in public… 99% OF THEM ARE PERPETRATED BY one ethnicity, PERIOD..
The state of Washington should be renamed to “Vladimir Lenin”. How is that for Critical Race Theory? George Washington’s name should not be dishonored.
MORE and more i’d love to see a fault line open up, and Separate Seattlistan, from the rest of washington state..
I’m confidant that Washington State is looking right now for a black criminal named Washington to lionize by attributing the name to him.
They took King County away from the first governor (King) and gave it to Martin King Jr..
Seattle went from “Gateway to Alaska” during the gold rush to “The Jet City” in Boeing’s heyday to “The Emerald City” when the port ceased to be a major functioning seaport and became a tourist hole. Now that the city relies on tourist dollars they allow the bums to poo all of that away.
this is fubar.
Let the teachers quite. Create private schools and break the unions since they are just as evil.
IMO ITS the teachers unions PUSHING this insanity…

Houston (where I live) is considered the most racially diverse large city in the US.
Seattle is one of the least diverse large cities in the US, yet they talk about it more, and want everyone to believe that they are so “Racially Aware”! It’s funny really.
Houston is a city that we blend in and live. Over the past 100 years, Houston has had less racial issues than other large cities, because we just generally get along.
It appears that Other race is Hispanic.
I wonder, how many are ILLEGAL ALIENS!
Lord I was born a racist white. Wrong! I grew up in Florida during the 1950s while Jim Crow laws were still in force. I remember going to Sears with my parents and seeing two sets of bathrooms and water fountains labeled white and colored. I overcame the things I learned and strictly look at content of character in evaluating a person. No child is born hating another race or religion. No Muslim is born hating Christians; no white child is born hating blacks and no black child is born hating whites. It is all taught and what is being done is making it worse. One doesn’t get to choose what color they are born. If they would stop and think about what they are doing, it would help. I fear, however, what they are doing is exactly what they want to create a whole lot more hate between the races and it isn’t going to end well. Thankfully my time left on this earth limited.
And from my POV. MOST, if not all of that hate, is being taught BY THE PARENT(s), and leftist indoctrination unions..
I’m 62 and was in Elementary school went busing started in the south. I was a little white kid bused to the hood. I say side by side with black kids. Same book ,same teacher ,same home work. But They still can’t pass ,so they lower the standards and they again can’t pass. So we lowered the standards. That was over40 years ago. Did you notice the word I used “same” so how is it Institutional racism.??
IT is not.. That’s just a leftist dog whistle..
