I actually think they’re a few years late in objecting to such nonsense as the 1619 Project being used in the schools. While “CRT” is often unfairly used as a catch-all term for a wide spectrum of ideological piffle, I think there is a high level of falsity in claiming that these laws make it illegal to teach the history of slavery, Jim Crow, or civil rights. Most of them that explicitly clear. They are aimed at indoctrinating children with a particular political slant.
