Republican bill that limits how race, slavery and history are taught in Texas schools becomes law

Though published this past week, these news aren't so new, however, this piece provides important detail on how the Texas Education Agency and the State Board of Education's (Texas' Department of Education) are taking up anti-CRT bill, Senate Bill 3. I like that it notes the real confusion around the matter. If you read Lauren Shook's excellent essay on this same topic that I posted on Friday, confusion IS the point of SB 3.

Republican bill that limits how race, slavery and history are taught in Texas schools becomes law

The so-called “critical race theory” law prohibits teachers from discussing “a widely debated and currently controversial issue of public policy or social affairs.”
