You are not afraid of CRT. You are not afraid of it because YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS. You think you do because you have listened to others who also THINK THEY KNOW WHAT CRT is and repeated their misinformation. I'm not going to try to explain to you what CRT is. instead, I am going to recommend that you go to Amazon and find a good foundational text on CRT. Next read it and a few of its excellent suggestions for further reading. Advance Warning! These are expensive books meant for law and graduate students. They generally cost upwards of $100, and they are as arcane as all get out.

CRT is not a curriculum that is "taught" at any school at the K-12 level. It is not "taught" at all, but is generally a method of examining US laws, and it takes a knowledge of law, history, and training in thinking critically. Please do that. Then you can either be genuinely "afraid" of CRT, or you can return to Medium and explain that CRT as bogeyman and innocence-stealer of youth was a myth created by others to confuse and scare people. You, unfortunately, happened to be one of them, and by publishing on Medium, you may have passed on that misinformation to others. Make amends both to yourself and to them by finding out what it is you're actually talking about and not what you THINK you're talking about.
