What CRT is.
Critical race theory is a cross-disciplinary intellectual and social movement of civil-rights scholars and activists who seek to examine the intersection of race, society, and law in the United States and to challenge mainstream American liberal approaches to racial justice.

What some people think it is.
Critical race theory is a radical ideology asserting that races can be put into different categories: That white people are the oppressor and black people and minorities are the oppressed. Critical race theory is Postmodernist that pins races against each other.

I keep hearing from "concerned parents" that we can't teach our children that slavery was bad. Why would any white parent worry that their children would hate themselves for being white if they are taught that white people owned slaves?
Did it ever occur to racist white parents that their children could identify with the abolitionists instead of the slavers?

They also link their sources as heavily biased, right-leaning provocative 'news' stories that fail to show anything substantial.

Slavery was bad. Telling American Jews, Asians, and light skinned Hispanics they are white, and thus racist, is also bad.

Who is telling them that?

CRT groups and education if one believes the news articles. Not just Fox News and American right-wing spin sites reporting it either.
