I could've added this to many other postings on this board . But it intersects so many of them that it deserved it's own post.

NY Education Dept is diverting funds targeted for pandemic relief to Critical Race Theory (CRT) training .


NY was awarded $9 billion in Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief aid from federal pandemic relief programs in Clueless Joe's 'American Rescue Plan'.
According to the state's spending priorties ,they plan to spend for 'Culturally Responsive Sustaining Education Framework',(CRSE) which empowers students to learn using aspects of their race, social class, gender, language, sexual orientation, nationality, religion, or ability.

Originally Clueless Joe wanted to fund CRSE nationwide .But he backtracked when there was a backlash that threatened the bill. But NY submitted a spending plan for the money that includes funding the program ,and the Dept of Education approved it .
