Looks like Don Lemon actually let someone he disagrees with, talk for once. Usually, he has the mute button ready or cuts their feed when they don’t follow the Liberal narrative. Lemon had on Sarah Elizabeth Cupp who contradicted his argument completely and somehow she was allowed to speak.
“It’s really backwards, as are most censorship projects, especially ones that stem from this kind of, you know, outrage culture and position of politics, right?” said Cupp.
“And it’s not all that controversial, Don,” she continued. “I mean, I don’t know how you grew up, but I grew up learning that slavery happened, and it was awful. It was a scourge. This is not news.”
That directly contradicts comments made by left-wing cable news hosts, including Lemon, who tied the teaching of slavery to the acceptance of a CRT-themed curriculum.”
“What [public schools are] teaching is a whitewashed history,” said Lemon on May 5. “Mostly our history is taught to elevate some people and to diminish other people. And the diminished part is mostly people of color.” Likewise, MSNBC’s Joy Reid claimed in June that “currently, most K-12 students already learn a kind of Confederate Race Theory, whereby the Daughters of the Confederacy long ago imposed a version of history wherein slavery was not so bad.”
“Cupp’s testimony establishes that America’s public schools taught that slavery is “a scourge” well before the most recent controversy over CRT.”
And most American’s are against this divisive theory.
“Only 38% of Americans had a favorable view of Critical Race Theory in a poll released in June by The Economist/YouGov.”
Critical Race Theory is the Dem’s attempt to further divide the nation. Cupp is right the Civil Rights movement was now over 50 years ago, schools have been teaching ‘slavery is evil’ and equality for ages now. Even Don Lemon knows this. Critical Race Theory is ridiculous, Black people are making it big here in America, we even had a black president. But that’s not enough for these crazed Libs who want white people to feel guilty for how things were over a hundred years ago.
