The lawsuit, backed by the American Civil Liberties Union and the ACLU of Oklahoma, was filed Tuesday. The organizations argue that HB 1775, which took effect in May, interferes with students’ and educators’ First Amendment rights to learn and talk about gender and race issues in school.
This policy also prevents students from discussing in-depth American history that reflects the experiences and viewpoints of “all historically marginalized communities in this country,” the ACLU argues.
Critical Race Theory is not history, it is an interpretation of history. It is Marx’s critical theory translated from economic into cultural terminology. Children do not need to be brainwashed with radical racist ideologies in Oklahoma public schools.
