It’s really hard to take “you can’t remake the {fictional_story} to be different!” from the same people that took the middle eastern anti-capitalist man of color in the Bible and turned him into a white conservative.
Liberals need to get way more angry parents showing up at state capitals and school board meetings, demanding gun reform. If conservatives can show up demanding school ban CRT that’s not even being taught surely we can show up for our kids being killed.
NEW: I’m not sure people fully appreciate how dire the US life expectancy / mortality situation has got.

And some utterly damning charts.

Another Idaho hospital is shutting down its maternity ward.
Half of the OBGYNs in the state are leaving or considering leaving - and no new OBGYNs want to move there because of the abortion ban.

Govenor Glenn Youngkin (R-VA) right now is having a town hall with Jake Tapper on CNN.
Every teacher that asks a question, Youngkin thanks them for their occupation.
However, one black teacher asks a question about discrimination towards teachers who are POC and in Youngkin's response he fails to thank that teacher for his profession.
Youngkin banned CRT in schools and here he is doing exactly what CRT teaches. Systemic racism is real, it exists, and it permeates everything, including how we treat each other.
Youngkin is wrong. History needs to be taught in its full glory, not some skewed version that makes him feel more comfortable.
