A new project called The Civics Alliance aspires to unite Americans in the effort to promote authentic civics education that teaches the United States’ founding principles and documents, key events of American history, the structure of our self-governing federal republic, and the spirit of liberty and tolerance.

The National Association of Scholars-sponsored project comes after President Joe Biden rescinded President Donald Trump’s executive order banning the Marxist-invented critical race theory in federal training, and disbanded Trump’s 1776 Commission that sought to move American education away from a radical curriculum that unduly emphasized race-related injustices of the past.
