Parents, analysts push back as media question and generalize critical race theory opponents: 'Go pound sand'

While left-leaning media continue to aggressively promote critical race theory, parents are pushing back on it as divisive and damaging to students.

"Equity policy is the same as critical race theory and the reason why it’s so damaging is it divides students into groups. It is not the same as equality or equal opportunity, which is what every parent is for and what the civil rights movement was for," Colorado mother Deborah Flora told "America’s Newsroom." Flora brought her concerns to the Colorado Douglas County School District board, calling CRT training a "nightmare."  The New York Times, NPR, and The Intercept have recently published pieces that appeared to promote aspects of critical race theory, criticizing Republican efforts against it, and taking occasional swipes at parents in the process.
