Course Overview

We’ll discuss the politicization of the teaching the history of race in America. The GOP made gains in the election of 2021, in part, by scaring the white suburban populations with claims that the Democrats will introduce Critical Race Theory into the teaching of American history in the public schools. Are these claims true? Is there a history of persistent structural racism in the US and how should be taught? What is Critical Race Theory and how does “woke consciousness” contribute to this dispute.
