California School District Moves to Ban Critical Race Theory from Curriculum

The Paso Robles, California, school district will consider banning Critical Race Theory (CRT) lessons at its Tuesday board meeting.

“Critical race theory is a divisive ideology that assigns moral fault to individuals solely on the basis of an individual’s race and, therefore, is itself a racist ideology,” the Paso Robles Joint Unified School District board’s resolution reads, CalCoastNews.com reported.

“Critical race theory views social problems primarily as racial problems and, thus, detracts from analysis of underlying socio-economic causes of social problems,” the resolution continued.

The proposed resolution, authored by board president Christopher Arend, lays out several CRT tenets that would be banned from being taught, including:

• Racism is ordinary, the usual way society does business.
• “Differential racialization”, according to which the “dominant society racializes different minority groups at different times, in response to different needs such as the labor market”
• An individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, is inherently racist and/or sexist, whether consciously or unconsciously.
• Individuals are either a member of the oppressor class or the oppressed class because of race or sex.
• An individual is inherently morally or otherwise superior to another individual because of race or sex.
• An individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, bears responsibility for actions committed in the past or present by other members of the same race or sex.
• The advent of slavery in the territory that is now the United States constituted the true founding of the United States, or the preservation of slavery was a material motive for independence from England….
