BREAKING: The nation's largest teachers union has approved a plan to promote critical race theory in all 50 states and 14,000 local school districts.
The argument that "critical race theory isn't in K-12 schools" is officially dead.
The union has also approved funding for "increasing the implementation" of CRT in K-12 curricula and for attacking conservative groups who oppose CRT indoctrination.
The teachers union has made critical race theory its #1 priority—and want to implement it nationwide.
According to a recent YouGov survey, 58 percent of Americans oppose critical race theory, including 72 percent of independents who believe teaching it in schools is "bad for America."
But the teachers union wants to double-down and impose this divisive ideology on your children.
The NEA represents 3 million public school employees in all 50 states. They have a $350 million annual budget and an army of operatives in 14,000 local communities.
They have now declared war on parents who oppose critical race theory—and parents must fight back!

NEWS: Our legal partner @kimmiehermann has filed a lawsuit to stop critical race theory indoctrination in the Evanston/Skokie School District, which segregated teachers by race, compared "whiteness" to the devil, and claimed "to be less white is to be less oppressive."
Thread🧵
Last year, the Evanston/Skokie School District began forcing teachers to commit to "antiracism" and separating them into racially-segregating "affinity groups." Superintendent Devon Horton told teachers: "If you're not anti-racist, we can't have you in front of our students."
The district told teachers they must investigate their "whiteness," accept that white individuals are "loud" and "controlling," acknowledge that "white identity is inherently racist," and believe that "to be less white is to be less racially oppressive."
She claimed that critical race theory isn't taught in schools and that intersectionality, critical whiteness studies, ethnic studies, and critical pedagogy have nothing to do with CRT.
Let's deconstruct her language games.🧵
1. Reid claimed that critical race theory isn't taught in schools. This is a supreme gaslight. I've personally documented more than a dozen school districts that teach the principles of critical race theory, from "intersectionality" to "spirit murder." city-journal.org/christopher-ru….
2. Reid claimed that intersectionality is not related to critical race theory. That would be a surprise to Kimberlé Crenshaw, who coined the term "critical race theory" and invented the concept of "intersectionality."
Even Vox knows the truth:
It all makes sense now: the Washington Post published a 3,000-word fake hitpiece against me because they really want to defend race essentialism and "White racial identity."
I'm fighting against race supremacy; the Washington Post wants to install it everywhere.
The game is that they want to create an essentialized racial category ("whiteness"), load it with negative connotations, then impose it on individuals through guilt, shame, and school indoctrination.
This approach is reductive, manipulative, and malicious. Don't fall for it.
The way out of this Kafka trap is to reject the framework of race essentialism, refuse to allow your enemies to impose a hostile identity onto you, and define yourself as an individual with a specific heritage that is meaningful to you.
The Washington Post's @laurameckler spent three weeks preparing a hitpiece against me.
In this thread, I will expose five flat-out lies, from the fabrication of a timeline to multiple smears that are easily disproven by documentary evidence.
This is how the media lies.🧵
Lie #1. The Washington Post presents critical race theory as a benign academic concept, obscuring the divisive nature of the ideology and refusing to address the huge amount of evidence on abusive CRT programs in K-12 classrooms.
Lie #2. The Washington Post fabricates the timeline of events surrounding my involvement in President Trump's executive order on critical race theory in the federal government.
SCOOP: @LockheedMartin, the nation’s largest defense contractor, sent key executives to a three-day white male reeducation camp in order to deconstruct their “white male culture” and atone for their “white male privilege.”
I've obtained internal documents that will shock you.🧵
The program was led by the consulting firm White Men As Full Diversity Partners, which specializes in helping white males “awaken together.” The participants included a former three-star general and the vice president of production for the $1.7 trillion F-35 fighter jet program.
To begin, the diversity trainers led a “free association” exercise, asking the Lockheed employees to list connotations for the term “white men.” The trainers wrote down “old, racist, privileged, anti-women, angry, Aryan Nation, KKK, Founding fathers, guns, guilty, can’t jump.”
Disney has released a statement claiming that my reporting "distorted" their antiracism program. This is false. I published direct quotations, contextual screenshots, and the original source documents in their entirety.
Disney is distorting the truth—and I won't stand for it.
Disney claims to value "inclusivity," but the company has:
-Used slave and child labor in poor countries
-Filmed 'Mulan' near Uighur concentration camps
-Censored content for the CCP
-Shrinked a black actor in Chinese promotional materials
The Magic Kingdom is a house of lies.
I challenge Disney's executive team to walk the walk: they should complete the "white privilege" checklist they provided to employees and share the results publicly.
Otherwise, they're fake antiracists, using buzzwords to deflect attention from their moral transgressions.
