Fox News contributor Leo Terrell discusses critical race theory, 1619 Project, and teachers’ unions' influence over the CDC.
The Oregon Department of Education (ODE) is sponsoring a teacher-designated event where the author of the controversial "1619 Project" will speak.
Scheduled for Friday night, the event is co-sponsored by the ODE and Oregon Alliance of Black School Educators.
According to the Portland Association of Teachers, it will focus "on how the inclusion of 1619 historical events into our educational system will further Oregon’s efforts at breaking down systems of oppression."
Titled "An Evening with Nikole Hannah Jones," it's framed as a way to help teachers "center our work in equity throughout the state."
