How a diverse coalition in a red state shut down anti-CRT legislation
CNN
Parents and teachers were shocked after an Indiana state senator introduced a bill requiring that teachers remain neutral when teaching about Nazism. And in less than two days, a coalition to defeat the bill was born.
"Within 36 hours, we had organized over a dozen community members and partners to testify against the bill," Jennifer Smith-Margraf, the vice president of the Indiana State Teachers Association, told CNN in March.
Members of the Indiana community spoke at hearings, met with legislators and posted on social media to speak out against Sen. Scott Baldwin's support of Senate Bill 167.

Days after Eric Adams won the New York City mayoral primary four years ago, he was invited to Washington by then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi to speak to the House Democratic caucus, touted by the chair of the House Democrats’ campaign arm as a model for campaigns around the country, and welcomed at Joe Biden’s White House.
