According to a Breitbart story, the African American Policy Forum conducted an online conference July 18-22 that featured speakers and sessions with names such as “Developing the Next Generation of CRT Activists.”
Derryck Green of Project 21 suspects the “Summer School" had little to do with improving students' education.
"I think what the so-called ‘Summer School’ with respect to critical race theory is trying to do,” he says, “is simply create more critical-race, anti-racist activists."
The term “anti-racist” sounds like a noble goal, since fighting racism is a good cause, but the term is a part of Critical Race Theory and thus not what is sounds like. That’s because a central argument of the theory is that white people are naturally and inherently racist. So the so-called anti-racism training, much like a “struggle session” in communist China, demands that an innocent person admit their guilt and commit to change.
Green says the conference was nothing more than a recruitment event for angry minorities.
"Students, or teachers, or administrators in government schools, should be more focused on teaching children what they actually need to know,” Green warns, “so that they can lay the foundation for them to be successful if and when they go on to college or if they decide to go into the economy."
