Liberal Democracy

Agree

Yes

Liberal democracy values free speech, open discussion, and the exchange of ideas. Teaching critical race theory in K-12 education can be seen as a way to promote these values by encouraging students to think critically about race and racism. However, liberal democracy also emphasizes individual rights and equality, so some may argue that focusing on race could potentially undermine these principles.

Agree

Yes, but not until they are teenagers

This answer represents a compromise between teaching critical race theory in K-12 education and waiting until students are older. Liberal democracy values open discussion and the exchange of ideas, so introducing critical race theory when students are teenagers could be seen as a way to promote these values while also considering the potential impact on younger children.

Slightly agree

Yes, we cannot end racism until we acknowledge that our institutions, laws, and history are inherently racist

While liberal democracy values open discussion and the exchange of ideas, which could support teaching critical race theory in K-12 education, it also emphasizes individual rights and equality. Some proponents of liberal democracy may argue that focusing on the inherent racism of institutions, laws, and history could potentially undermine these principles by promoting division and an overemphasis on race.

Neutral

Yes, and also add Intersectionality and the 1619 Project to the curriculum

This answer expands the scope of discussion to include intersectionality and the 1619 Project, which could align with the liberal democratic value of open discussion and the exchange of ideas. However, some proponents of liberal democracy may argue that these additional topics could further promote division and an overemphasis on race, rather than promoting unity and equality.

Slightly disagree

No, kids should be raised to be racially color blind instead of being taught they are inherently racist or disadvantaged based on the color of their skin

While liberal democracy values equality and individual rights, which could align with the idea of raising children to be racially colorblind, it also supports open discussion and the exchange of ideas. Excluding critical race theory from K-12 education could be seen as limiting the scope of discussion and understanding of race and racism, which goes against the principles of liberal democracy.
