Arizona Gov. Doug Ducey (R) signed a bill on Friday preventing local governments from teaching critical race theory.
The measure, House Bill 2906, prohibits “the state and any local governments from requiring their employees to engage in orientation, training or therapy that suggest an employee is inherently racist, sexist or oppressive, whether consciously or unconsciously,” Ducey’s office said in a statement.
The Arizona state House passed the bill in a 31-25 vote, according to records from the state legislature. The state Senate passed the bill on a 16-12 vote.

Well then. That was pointless. Nothing in this bill has anything to do with CRT, either directly or indirectly.

SGT Charlie Lee - I suspect the authors have never read much, to say nothing of the fact that they clearly have no idea what CRT is...

That’s a pretty poorly written law. Now the courts have to decide what is and isn’t racist. The governor may not get the result he expects.

SPC Kevin Ford Sure Sounds that Way, Might Actually have the Opposite Effect of what was intended by those that Oppose CRT.

PO1 William "Chip" Nagel - I can see the case now, the current textbooks are racist because they focus on white history and leave the history of (insert minority here) out.
