NEW YORK — Recent attacks on race education, via the targeting of"critical race theory" in schools, have put Black educators -- and the lessons they teach on racial inequality -- under scrutiny.
To some, like Houston social studies teacher Nelva Williamson, the attacks on race education are personal. Some parents and Republican legislators argue that educators are"indoctrinating" students with certain lessons on race that make students feel"discomfort" or"shame." The theory isn't being taught in K-12 classrooms, according to educators opposing the legislative efforts against critical race theory.
Bonner said that when a student told her that some people believed she taught too much Black history, she held a classroom discussion about the importance of listening to other people's stories.
