Over the past year, states including New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Texas have passed legislation that targets critical race theory and bans the teaching of so-called “divisive concepts.” It’s on the agenda in other states, while activists across the U.S. try to pass similar policies through local school boards. Join history faculty Bob Bonner, Jorell Meléndez-Badillo, and Julia Rabig to discuss the roots of these attacks and their implications for historical inquiry and anti-racism. Faculty will speak briefly followed by Q&A.
