Commentary

Politics have seeped into the education system nationwide. Activist educators have sown divisive rhetoric into curricula, confusing and dividing children in the process. The rise of critical race theory, for example, is teaching our children that their immutable characteristics are paramount, thus eroding common humanity at its source.
