A joint letter by 20 state attorneys general directed to Education Secretary Miguel Cardona is asking the Biden administration to retract its education plans that would promote critical race theory (CRT) and The New York Times’ “1619 Project” in schools.
The group’s criticism centers on recent proposals from the Department of Education that detail plans in April to provide grants for a curriculum that teaches diversity and the effects of “systemic marginalization” under American History and Civics Education programs.
