er, ethan, that wasn't a criticism -- it's a fact that you like to go searching for racist and/or generally politically dubious comments.

In a perfect world, race would not be an issue. If a white cop was involved in an incident with a person of color, whatever that color might be, the facts of the matter would be based on details, color not being one of the factors. But this isn't a perfect world. We all hold some prejudicial elements in our thought process, when skin tone is a factor. I don't care who you are, or how open minded you claim to be. >>I don't care if you are black, white, brown or mauve,<< somewhere in your psyche, perhaps right at the surface or buried deep, we all make judgements at times that are racially biased. The person of color who automatically feels they are being targeted based on race has a long historical reference to bolster their feeling. Likewise the average suburban white person who has been inundated with news of black on white crime, or reports of gang violence , will invariably recoil if approached by anyone remotely fitting that description.

I have put a lot of thought into this and done a bit of research. He claims to be Church of Christ... CLAIMS... we don't really know for sure. I don't think people are stopping to think about his roots. But either way, he is half black and to a lot of people, especially around here, that's still black. I'm not a racist, but i do tend to over think things I guess. There are groups of people who gather and talk that are racist (ie KKK). Do you honestly think that if he was elected to be the next president that there would be no assasination attempts? Kennedy was assassinated and he had A LOT to do with the civil rights. Lincoln was assasinated and he helped free the slaves. Is our country really ready for a black president? I mean Lincoln was a long time ago, but Kennedy was less than 50 years ago. My mom still remembers the day he was shot. I have a friend who is black and fully supports O'Bama. His reasoning: He's black. He has no idea what the man stands for and what he wants to accomplish in office... just that he's black... I myself would have to meet a genuine person to even vote for a democrat...

When he did it, it was kind of street theater. I mean, he could bring people together. He was black, needless to say, but he was colorblind as an artist. In other words, his theory of art, of American art-making, was: you steal from everybody. I don’t care if you’re white, black, purple, or blue, if you make a sound that I like, I’m going to steal it, and then I’m going to acknowledge where I got it from. But I’m going to do everything I can to steal, borrow, it doesn’t really matter what word he used, I’m going to listen hard, take what I need from the various places in the culture that it happens to dwell.

There was a man in line ahead of me at the store one time who was being kind of a pain to the cashier. The store was busy and she was getting a bit exasperated. Suddenly the guy says, "She don't like Mexicans! That girl don't like Mexicans!" Um, no. Your being Mexican hasn't a thing to do with it. She's annoyed because you're being a pain in the ass! I knew a woman who was like that, too. One time when we were having lunch together she confronted another woman who was there whom I didn't get along with and caused a big scene. Afterwards, when I asked her why she did that she immediately said, "it's because I'm black, isn't it? You're mad because I'm black!" I told her, "I don't care if you're black, white or purple with green spots, I'm upset because that was an uncomfortable and embarrassing public situation back there--OK? If I was the kind of person that wouldn't like you just because you're black, would I even be here with you?" She was sort of taken aback but then understood where I was coming from. Being of a minority race doesn't mean you have free license to screw up and/or act like a jerk and not get called on it, by anybody whether of your race or not.

CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — Republican Gov. Chris Sununu on Thursday denounced a conservative group’s offer to pay $500 to the first person who “catches” a public school teacher violating New Hampshire’s new limits on the discussion of systemic racism and other topics.Sununu had opposed an earlier version of the legislation that echoed a Trump administration order and sought to ban discussion of “divisive concepts” in schools. But he later backed language inserted into the state budget ’that would prohibit teaching children that they are inferior, racist, sexist or oppressive by virtue of their race, gender or other characteristics.

While the article touches on the deeper issues somewhat, in a typical AP loaded 'both sides' framework, it seems like the law as stated doesn't clearly forbid CRT at all. My understanding is that CRT deals with systemic racism specifically, and because the law specifically forbids teaching individuals that they are racist, it would still allow discussion of systemic issues which do not necessarily reflect on individual children. Although "oppressive by virtue of race" is basically wide open to interpretation.

https://fox2now.com/news/missouri/lawmakers-continue-probe-of-critical-race-theory-in-missouri-schools-despite-results-of-district-survey/
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. – Monday was the first day of school for many districts in Missouri. Over the summer, the state’s education department asked school districts if they taught critical race theory in a survey.
Last month, members of the Missouri House and Senate heard testimony on why critical race theory (CRT) should be banned in the state, but on Monday, they heard why schools should teach it. Of the 554 districts in the state, only one said it teaches CRT.
“I don’t think that people actually know what critical race theory is at one moment in time,” Former director of the Anti-Defamation League Karen Aroesty told the committee. “Learning about the history of race and racism is important.”

Over the summer, the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education (DESE) gave the 500 plus school districts a survey about CRT and the “1619 Project.” The first question read:Question: Does your LEA’s board-approved curriculum include lessons about CRT?The only school to answer yes was Kansas City Public Schools, explaining their answer by saying:“We offer an African Centered College prep magnet school that services both elementary and secondary students. The board also approved the 1619 Project service learning and community activism grant to be taught during summer school. The curriculum is fully aligned with the Missouri Learning Standards.”Five schools left the answer blank and 419 districts said no.The second question read:Question: Does your LEA’s board-approved curriculum include The New York Times 1619 Project?Three schools answered yes: Hazelwood School District, Kansas City Public Schools, and the School District of University City. Hazelwood explains its answer by saying:“4th Grade Social Studies – The 1619 Project is listed as one of the teacher resources about the arrival of enslaved Africans in Jamestown.8th Grade Social Studies – Students are given a reading of two paragraphs from the 1619 Project describing the arrival of enslaved Africans in Jamestown.US History (9th Grade) – The 1619 Project is mentioned in a suggested learning activity where President Trump discusses the 1619 Project and the 1776 project.”University City explained its answer by saying:“Our board did not approve the 1619 Project. One of our teachers used the resource during one unit of study with students.”
