>>Texas' law, notably, also instructs social studies teachers in public K-12 schools not to talk in class about the concepts that "an individual should be discriminated against or receive adverse treatment solely or partly because of the individual's race" or that "an individual should feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress" based on their race or sex.
Teachers who spoke to HuffPost in June condemned the laws in Texas and other states as attempts to "whitewash" history that also lead to confusion about what they can and can't teach.<<

So here we are now shielding kids from critical race theory, the newest lightning rod for Texans, so that their kids won't be forced to learn what their race did to further white supremacy because it may make them feel bad. So what happens when the teachers talk about genocide for Jews by nazis? Well, they will need a counter point to keep all the heat away from the snowflakes because their education should make them proud to be white Americans. This is the problem with this law. It was designed to prevent any history of slavery or white supremacy by deeming them controversial.

All controversy must be avoided and ignored. Now we go down the slippery slope. Controversial to who? Texas Republicans, teachers, students' parents? Who provides the counter point? Is the counter point a justification for bad actors to behave badly and does this teach our children moral relativism because we have created a law that says all controversies, historic and present, have their reasons?
