While the Washoe County School District says Critical Race Theory isn’t part of its curriculum, educators have proposed to incorporate equity, diversity and racism into its K-5 curriculum. For some, that idea raises concerns that they think need to be monitored closely.

Amid complaints from parents that their children are being “indoctrinated,” a Missouri school district official is advising English teachers to create a fake curriculum and keep the real one hidden.
The real one is focused on “antiracist” activism and issues of “white privilege,” the Daily Wire reported.
The author of the memo is Natalie Fallert, the literacy speech coordinator for grades 6-12 in the Rockwood School District, serving several towns west of St. Louis that are overwhelmingly white.
She told middle and high-school English teachers in the district that parents had been complaining “we are pushing an agenda,” “we are pushing Critical Race Theory (I had to look this one up!),” “we are making white kids feel bad about their privilege,” we are “stereotyping,” “we are teaching kids to be social activists” and “we are teaching kids to be democratic thinkers and activists.”
