CRT is:

After the attacks in Atlanta, @teachntransform took inventory of what her students knew about Asian American history and identity. Their answers gave her resolve and hope. We hope her insights and these resources give you resolve to do this critical work.

“All of what we saw at the U.S. Capitol is part of America. But what’s also part of America is denying all of what is part of America. Actually, this denial is the essential part of America. Denial is the heartbeat of America.”
