Critical Race Theory
Having equitable communities means understanding the systematic reasons why inequity exists. One concept that allows us to study our current systems is Critical Race Theory. This legal theory studies and analyzes the impact of systemic racism on the American legal system and institutions with the goal of eliminating these inequities. The Diversity Council supports the application Critical Race Theory where appropriate.
Opponents of Critical Race Theory believe this concept is being taught in the K-12 public schools even though it is designed for post-secondary education study. Some opponents may consider any diversity, equity, and inclusion curriculum or program to be an example of critical race theory.
