There is a real crisis in the schools. It just has nothing to do with c r t. I mean, schools, teachers have been in crisis. But there's no coherent politics to talk about that. But it is a sight of incredible intention, pain, drama, anxiety. And i'm not saying this is a grand conspiracy. I think it is both intentional from from the top and i think it is also a roots reaction to the belief that the liberals own the universities and for the most part, own the education system.
