Republican lawmaker Marc Rubio has urged colleagues not to use federal funding for the promotion of radical ideas | The Republican Party must support governors and school-board members who are fighting to prevent US educational institutions from becoming a “cesspool of Marxist indoctrination,” Senator Marco Rubio has said. 💬 “Dangerous academic constructs like critical race theory and radical gender theory are being forced on elementary school children,” Rubio wrote in an article published in the American Conservative magazine on Tuesday. The party needs to provide “reinforcements” to Republican governors and school-board members who are fighting against such ideas being taught to students, he said. “We need to ensure no federal funding is ever used to promote these radical ideas in schools,” the Florida senator insisted. ● Critical race theory, which has existed in academia since the 1980s, is currently taught in many American schools, universities and workplaces. It suggests that people’s relative “privilege” is defined by their skin color, gender, sexuality and other fixed characteristics. Proponents of the theory claim that males sit at the top of the hierarchy and perpetuate “white supremacy” knowingly or unknowingly. Meanwhile, those who oppose the theory argue that it pits people of color against white people and leads to anti-white discrimination.
