In 2022, 45% of high schoolers polled say they were taught that "America is built on stolen land" in class at school, and another 22% heard it from an adult there.
Students taught all of the "critical social justice" (CSJ) concepts were in fact more likely to agree with them; among those taught "America is built on stolen land" 73% agreed.
Among those students taught 5 CSJ concepts, 75% believed whites are responsible for the inferior social position of black people and 44% support preferential hiring and promotion of blacks.
Among whites, 58% felt guilty for this.
Members of all races felt less comfortable with criticizing a black classmate with more CSJ concepts taught in school.
Anyways, teaching students in public schools that the country is illegitimate is crazy and reminds me of the late Russian Empire.
