Staunch Challenge – and Warning – to Liberal Politicians
- Details
- By Alveda C. King

Finally, the anti-American agenda of critical race theory (CRT) is being exposed, and its devout followers should take note.
Most recently we saw this in Virginia's rejection of CRT in its gubernatorial race. On one hand, you had a seasoned politician and former governor Terry McAuliffe telling parents they should not have a say in what schools teach their children. And on the other hand, you had political newcomer Glenn Youngkin vowing to keep CRT out of Virginia's schools.
Let this be a wake-up call for the elites determined to undermine our nation's greatness by indoctrinating our children with a radical, anti-American agenda—America's parents won't allow it.
