What is Critical Race Theory?
There has been a lot of talk about Critical Race Theory (CRT) in the news media, but what does it mean? CRT is not Anti Bias Anti Racism Education, Culturally Relevant Teaching, Diversity and Inclusion Training, Multicultural Education, or other anti racism approaches.
CRT is an academic approach that typically is taught at the post secondary level.
Unfortunately paranoia has resulted in an ill-advised movement against teaching anti racism in any form.

Understanding Juneteenth!
Juneteenth commemorates General Order No. 3 which was issued by Major General Gordon Granger, who arrived in Galveston, Texas, on June 19, 1865. The issuing of this order and the arrival of Federal troops in Galveston effectively ended the Civil War and emancipated those confined to a life of slavery.
Brownsville: A Story of a Milwaukee that "was"...
"Remembering Bronzeville" chronicles life in Milwaukee’s early African American neighborhood during its heyday - the 1940s, 50s and early 60s. The film also covers efforts to recreate a portion of the lost neighborhood.
