Bill Maher, liberal professor clash on CRT in schools: It's 'disingenuous' to say parents oppose Black history

“Real Time” host Bill Maher had a tense exchange with Vanderbuilt University Professor Michael Eric Dyson about critical race theory in schools.

Dyson argued that parents were "spooked" by CRT even though "none of them can define it" and suggested that they were outraged only because Black history was now being "centered" in the school curriculum.  "There are children coming home who feel traumatized by this. That's what parents are objecting to."

Maher disagreed.

"But I find that a disingenuous argument because I don't think that is what people are objecting to," the host reacted. "They are not objecting to Black history being taught. There are other things going on in the schools."
