Excerpts:
Progressive Craziness of The Day: Critical Race Theory in K-12 Schools and Corporations
* Yesterday I attended an in-person program at the Manhattan Institute with the title "Deconstructing Wokeness in K-12 and Corporate America." There were two panels and a speech totaling close to three hours.
* Presenters included something of a who's who of the movement opposing the spreading cancer of Critical Race Theory in schools and corporations: Christopher Rufo and Jim Copland of the Manhattan Institute, Vivek Ramaswamy (author of the new book Woke, Inc.), Paul Rossi (the guy who blew the whistle on CRT at Grace Church School, who is currently affiliated with the Educational Liberty Alliance), and Asra Nomani (Vice President of Parents Defending Education).
* Finally, after more than a year and a half in virtual purgatory, we have resumed in-person events to discuss issues of public policy.
* The huge difference between in-person and virtual events is that at in-person events you get to meet the people who take important roles in contesting these issues. In addition to the presenters, several other notable participants in recent events showed up at yesterday's event, for example Andrew Gutmann (the parent who blew the whistle on CRT at the super-snooty all-girls Brearly School on Manhattan's Upper East Side) and Maud Maron (mother of four kids in New York City public schools, who spoke out against CRT and for her trouble has been ostracized at her job defending indigent criminal defendants at the Legal Aid Society).
* But for today I'd like to highlight the work of Rufo.
