13 important points in the campus & K-12 critical race theory debate – FIRE

After many, many requests for my thinking1 on the topic of bills that seek to regulate teaching of concepts related to race and gender (and facile accusations that by not commenting, I have revealed I am on the wrong side!), I have decided to hammer down my thoughts into these 13 points. Note that while the bills are popularly known as anti-critical race theory bills, that s a misnomer I ll address below. Instead, I m calling them divisive concepts bills, which better captures what they seek to regulate.

Caveat: Some of what I discuss below, primarily issues relating to K-12 education, is beyond FIRE s purview, which is limited to America s colleges and universities, and accordingly as per usual at ERI what I say is my opinion and not an official FIRE position.
