Is that what they are doing? Forcing children to take a pledge is reasonable? Assuming that all white people are racists is reasonable? The big lie is that America is systemically racist. If that is true then the current President is a racist. All the Left wing Democrat run states and cities must be racist. Hollywood, big tech industries, pro sports, media etc. must be racist. Of course none of that is true. It is a big lie pushed for purely political reasons. If America is not systemically racist the Democrat party loses one of its main talking points. And its ability to brand every Republican they don't like as a racist.

One of the main concepts of Critical Race Theory is "First, that white supremacy (societal racism) exists and maintains power through the law" There are no laws at any level of government in the USA that discriminates against any racial group. That would be illegal and easily reversed if so.

From the Wiki article on CRT. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critic...ial%20justice.

Quote:
-Critique of liberalism: CRT scholars question foundational liberal concepts such as Enlightenment rationality, legal equality, and Constitutional neutrality, and challenge the incrementalist, step-by-step approach of traditional civil-rights discourse; they favor a race-conscious approach to social transformation, rejecting liberal embrace of affirmative action, color blindness, role modeling, or the merit principle; and an approach that relies more on political organizing, in contrast to liberalism's reliance on rights-based remedies.
If anyone is a Liberal that should be very disturbing.
