CRT, Trans-Tyranny, and the Crisis in Public School EducationHow did we get here? Recent educational overreaches have finally awakened parents across the country to the ongoing transformation of education that has occurred right under our noses. Dr. Duke explains how we've moved from emphasizing knowledge-based mastery of subject matter to a politicized approach that diminishes academic achievement in favor of social justice indoctrination. From Critical Race Theory, to Social Emotional Learning, to LGTBQ propaganda, public schools are usurping the rights of parents while forcing leftist and socialistic dogma on America’s children. The talk also explains how parents can take control of their kids’ education and reject public school indoctrination.
