Greg Dolan, a father of two who is running for Fox Chapel Area School director in Pennsylvania, and Amy Cawvey, a mother of three who is a Lansing School Board candidate in Kansas, told “Fox & Friends” on Wednesday that they are running to fight critical race theory (CRT) in their school districts.
“I think that CRT is poisonous,” Dolan, who is a high school U.S. history teacher, told host Pete Hegseth, adding that it teaches people to look at children by “where they were born, what race they are [and] who their parents are.”
“That’s wrong,” he stressed. “CRT is the opposite of good teaching.”
Cawvey said she is running to “keep CRT out of our schools.”
Dolan and Cawvey made the comments as controversies over racial diversity trainings and curricula have swept the nation in recent months.
CRT is a controversial philosophy – a progressive idea that proponents say can increase racial equity and which critics describe as Marxist, anti-American and neo-racist.
American Federation of Teachers (AFT) President Randi Weingarten said on Tuesday that the union “will defend any member who gets in trouble for teaching honest history.”
If I were more qualified I would run for the school board in Worcester county. Come to think of it I am probably just as qualified as some of the clowns on the board now. Maybe I will run after all
Anyone can see the system went down hill after integration in the sixties. The worse part is they apparently didn’t want to do so , acknowledged by wanting their own black student Union, black history month, black whatever. There, I said it. Explain if you disagree.

That’s right. If you don’t like it, then move them out the legal way.
