Monday, December 5, 2022 10:30am - 12:30pm, SLO Library
$5 for LLCC Members $10 for Others
At Fox News, CRT is part of a dangerous plot born amongst Marxist educators to make white children feel bad about themselves.

After this course you should have a better idea of the origins of CRT in the 1970s and how it has developed into its current form. You should also be able to understand more clearly why most of the battles about CRT raging on TV, online, in state legislatures, and at local school board meetings are, mostly, just wrong-headed.
Tal Scriven is a professor and chair emeritus in the Philosophy Department at Cal Poly. He has, otherwise, taught at USC, Chapman, the University of South Florida and the University of Colorado.
