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

Thomas Jefferson when he was writing the Constitution wanted to abolish slavery right then but they knew if they tried to do it then they would lose the southern states that had slaves. If you are going to teach anything then teach the truth regardless how it hurts, we have had slavery since almost the man started in this world to include up to today. The sex slavery that goes on today is such a sad thing especially with kids between age 3 to 17 year old, did you know that in this type of slavery that 60% of the sex slavery in the world happens right here in the United States, look what happens around a Super Bowl event. So if you are going to teach something then teach the truth not CRT or 1619 project junk.

Yes definitely some people really do need it.

Critical Race Theory is a device used to divide our country, race and way of life.
It is an essential part of communist doctrine with one result only, the destruction from within of our country.

Absolutely not!

No. I think 'CRT' (and what that is depends who you ask) is a divisive distraction. Leadership courses need to be focused directly on leadership, and universities should be focusing on teaching history, facts, skills, and the critical thinking techniques needed to apply those facts and skills in a dynamic environment. Teach HOW to think, not WHAT to think.

Yes!

Prejudice is based on experiences with a person. Race, color etc. aren't the issues, the little Korean kid who kicked your butt in the sixth grade is. Maybe the [blank] who stole your lunch money or robbed you on the way to work. How about the guy who shot your brother [was he a robber or a cop]. Today, the big prejudices are against law enforcement.

To throw another rock into the pond - Jean-Paul Sarte come up with the novel idea that all societies should be judged based on the treatment of the least favored groups in a society - this idea made him more radical than the Communists.
OT of interest to this group, Sarte's Military Unit was a Weather Station Unit ( he had bad eyes)

Just beware who you bring in to teach it. We used to have Equal Opportunity & Human Relations classes back in the day. For a guest speaker, they invited in a black retired US Army general. As soon as he opened his mouth, it was obvious he was a full blown racist & sexist. This was at a very small Army post near DC. He's a general so we better just sit here & take it. He made eye contact with a black female E-5 in our company & he asked if she had anything to ask him. He used a sexist slur when asking. She asked to speak frankly & he allowed it. Wow, did she give in an earful. His response was very condescending & the more he explained his mindset, he dug himself deeper. Then other women & minority men stood up to rip him a new one. "We are all green, how dare you come in try to separate us". Then the entire company started booing him. He walked right out of the auditorium. Everybody in our company was high-fiving & giving each other hugs. So if CRT is not open to discussion & the troops must sit there & listen to someone's views then it will not have positive outcomes. We never got in trouble for chasing that general out of our midst. A few months later, we had a local white man & woman from some business group try to give us presentation that was also racist & sexist. They were lucky to leave with their lives. We are all green. Period. Will CRT have positive outcomes or will it divide?

Yes
