    Well, y'see, these two things...

    1) hurting a conservative's feelings by mentioning that people who refuse to acknowledge the role race plays in police-involved shootings are more likely to be Republicans, and

    2) openly fantasizing about the only Black woman on the board getting lynched

    ... are Exactly The Same (TM).

    See. That’s what I thought. But, FF’s post suggested the opposite.

    Well see that's because we all secretly agree with @Federal Farmer on the real definition but are engaged in a conspiracy to make him look like he's just making up definitions as suits him.

    "Parents And Teacher's Guide"
    "Exercises For Educators"

    The third one, I had to back-track it to Amazon and from the description...

    "Collectively, the volume explains how researchers, practitioners, and policymakers can use CRT to examine issues of race, racism, and other forms of oppression in mathematics education for Black children and adults".

    So, again, for teachers, not kids.

    Amazon also recommended "White Fragility". :diacanu:

    So wait, is Federal Farmer upset and clutching his pearls that children might be learning about racism?

    Is that's what's going on here?

    hard to tell because you don't link to anything telling us about the books.

    at a guess, the first doesn't appear to exist in any official useage judging by it's self description. it could be a critique of the concept for all we know.

    the others appear to be more about teaching math than teaching theory. Not unreasonable given the million studies on ethno-cultural disparities in learning the subject. Also, still not indoctrinating the children with white guilt either...

    It'd probably help if you'd provided anything other than a book cover for us to judge by...

    It really must be such a fucking bummer for conservatives that conservatism doesn't have any real intellectuals.
    It's all pseudo-science and conspiracy kooks all the way down.
    If their movement ever had real thinkers, they all goddamned died.
    Or else got run out on a rail for being "RINOs".

    It just must be so frustrating to be dumb like FF, and having no big brains to back you up.
    It must feel like throwing butter-knives at Iron Man.

    I can see why you would think that since you live in a fantasy land where you can just ignore and dismiss any facts that disrupt your world view.

    Oh, what "facts" would these be?
    "Race realism"?
    HBD?

    I just dumped a whole bunch of proof that CRT is being taught in K-12 schools and you just whizzed right past them and said, "nuh uh."

    Why do you appear to be very upset over kids learning about racism?

    Someone who's brighter than both of us is going to have to walk me through how a kindergartener can be a parent or teacher.

    Like, okay, maybe in a rare Sheldon Cooper level savant type deal, I could believe teacher.
    But parent?
    Nope, not likely.

    Absent that explanation, your little book cover collection proves diddly-fuck, and you should be ashamed.

    *Fantasy rep*

    Yes, I know it's a fantasy that you'd ever experience shame.
    You're part of a political tribe that believes cruelty is strength.
    Shame died for you a long time ago.
