Should we be teaching Critical Race Theory in our military universities and perhaps in our leadership courses?

SPC John Tacetta Sorry to disappoint but it is in Elementary School … it has different names and it is well camouflaged … but it is there teaching separation and division because if skin color … it may not be called CRT because the teachers unions have figured it out … got to go underground or parents just might get really pissed… but it’s there.

LTC Marc King -I'm pretty sure that CRT presents a course of study that is well beyond the grasp of any elementary student, except perhaps for those prodigies that go off to college when they're 7, but then... they're in college. Perhaps you're conflating CRT with having the children learn about plantation slavery, Jim Crow or how the Indians were pushed off their lands, but that's just history. Not really sure how graphic anything is in elementary school, anyway. I mean I don't remember anything traumatic (in elementary school) regarding the Revolutionary or Civil wars, just dates and places. I don't think I heard of the triangular trade until middle or high school.

But, hey, I'm not in elementary school, so I suppose I'd have to review the lesson plans before committing.

SPC John Tacetta To late you already commented … I said they don’t call it CRT it’s called lots of other things. I’m not really interested in an esoteric discussion. You read what I wrote if you disagree I accept that … but if you don’t pay attention to the issue it will jump up and bite you in the behind.

LTC Marc King - ;)

Being injured then kicked to the curb without appropriate medical care by the Obama Regime, they are more than welcome to apply the UCMJ on me, as I will apply it upon them. Spot on with your reasoning. CRT is set to divide us, not heal us for past sins, which we already have done.

PO1 Sam Deel - Don't feel special, The service has a reputation for fucking verterans that goes back to the Revolutionary War. Obama never started that fire.

Teaching history without critical thinkers is pretty much useless. It is equivalent to learning facts without understanding.

Same and came or close in spelling, but not in definition. Typos happen and I acknowledge them. What the hell is "woke"? It used to mean "I woke up at 5 A.M." My English in that sentence structure may be archaic (or not), but I definitely am not going to be defined by someone else's attempts to intimidate by rhetoric. My son lived in a Double wide trailer, no sign. I can't stand Tobacco smoking, chewing, and spitting. My Grandmother dipped Snuff and I tolerated her spitting as did all her grandchildren on Car rides where her position in the front passenger seat meant some strong gymnastics to sit far from the same side rear seat and window. No air-conditioning in the 1940s and 50s made the chance of being sprayed pretty much 100%. I don't care which or whose sign you erect in your yard or on your property. I did get pretty upset in 2020 when a small white foreign made pickup drove past my residential home with a loudspeaker blaring "Trumpisms", flying four Confederate Battle Flags, and one United States of America flag and parked at the end of the dead-end street for 10 to 20 minutes. Haven't seen the little SOB since the election. I wish he could return before the mid-terms. I may exercise my 2nd Amendment rights if he does and give him the confrontation he isn't expecting. I hope and wish he is now under arrest from joining the "Insurrectionists" at Our Capitol on January 6, 2022. I couldn't be lucky enough to be granted that wish. Don't try to define yourself to me, because I don't think negatively of persons I don't know until they exhibit and express ideas that are meant to intimidate others, not illuminate or open sane discussions. Trumpism does not qualify as sane in any way of which I am familiar.

You need to listen I am not racist I train Soldiers of all races, all I saw was a human. Right now you should open your mind and eyes and see that the party in power right now are coming after you and our freedoms. We are in early NAZI in this country and anyone speaks up is wrong. Free speech is censor if it doesn't meet the left thinking. As for Jan 6 there's to many open questions that are not being ask. By the way read USA history and you well learn the US Government was and still the biggest Racist, and southern Democrat's where slave owners and started the KKK. Jim Crow laws where southern Democrat's also. Look up the 13, 14, and 15 amendments.

SFC Jerry Alexander - Who is this comment addressed to?

GySgt Kenneth Pepper, the question you asked, "Who is this comment addressed to?" cannot be answered by the posting person. He lives in fantasy and dreams of being "right" without any comprehension of the real world and we humans in it! He cannot stand to be a "loser" as his hero Ex, Former, used to be President tried to apply to all who live outside his world of fantasy. Well, I've sometimes been a loser (Agent Orange=Prostate cancer, Diabetes Type I, Thyroid cancerous lymph nodes, Peripheral neuropathy, and other ailments too numerous to post). I've also been a Winner (A beautiful, loving, caring, faithful wife who gave me a son that I am so proud of and enjoy being with when I can). I don't enjoy being on this website, and am disgusted with many of the postings I've read and sometimes participated in. I have been afflicted in the past by the type of Officers and Senior Enlisted persons who are posting nonsensical ideas and theories on this website now and during my active service days. Several were hidden Drunkards and blowhards. Some were just raised with garbage and didn't know when to quit eating it and regurgitating it! Pardon this rant and forgive my directness!
