Oregon teachers, parents rally in support of 'critical race theory'

PORTLAND, Ore — Educators and parents rallied on Saturday against nationwide legislation that would prevent "critical race theory" from being taught in schools.

Speakers at the rally at the Friendship Circle in Portland told KATU News that they support critical race theory -- which is a legal term used to describe systemic racism.

David Scholten is a fifth grade teacher with Portland Public Schools and they told KATU News that not everyone understands what goes on in the classroom.

There's a lot of confusion about whether or not what we're doing is divisive or not -- and we believe that systemic racism is divisive. Racism is divisive. And in order to heal, we need to come forward, and expose the whole truth of our nation," Scholten said.

This week, Florida joined more than half a dozen other states in banning critical race theory. The curriculum -- which teaches students that racism is systemic and embedded into many American systems and institutions -- has turned into a controversial academic movement.

Educators at the Portland rally on Saturday said they were not only rallying in support of critical race theory, but were also rallying in support of their fellow teachers of color.

“Racism is divisive.”

Yes it is, Mr. Sholten. And CRT is racist.

sure. Every time there is push back in this country, there’s always an obligatory ‘gaslighting’ article that follows with fake polls, fake comments, made up b.s.

Buddy if you’re white you’re in trouble
‘Cause the Woke are coming for you today!
They got a critical race theory,
Propounded by nitwittery,
Every black is a victim eternally!

Singing,
We will,
We will,
Hate whites!
Singing,
We will,
We will,
Hate whites!

Yep, just as I thought. All of about 25 people and a few onlookers.

Antifa and parents rallied on Saturday against nationwide legislation that would prevent “critical race theory” from being taught in schools.

There fixed it. Quite a few of the Antifa rioters that were arrested and exposed were teachers.

There are very low levels of lithium in the soil and water in the Pacific Northwest. Caucasians who were born and raised there eventually have cognitive dysfunction manifested in many ways. Bizarre political ideation is one of them.

There is no “nationwide legislation”. There are legislations by individual states against the black supremacist Critical Race Theory. The crazies in Oregon are free to bend over and get screwed by BLM terrorists if they want.

What’s interesting is that teaching CRT always goes hand in hand with a refusal to allow criticism of it, so free speech is forbidden. Like most liberal notions, they know it can’t hold up under critical thinking.

Hatred of whites is good. Because all whites are hopelessly, irredeemably evil. The country cannot be good until whites are eliminated.

That is the logical conclusion of CRT. Kill whitey!

Portland cannot call itself “Oregon” anymore.
The communists in Portland have destroyed the city. Most of the “ teachers” are Antifa/BLM members. You can look at their arrest photos.
Everyone with one brain cell is moving out of that forsaken shithole.

The rest of Oregon will not go near that dump.

Portland didn’t just vote for third world status, they marched for it.
