Teaching a course in which Critical Race Theory is the only guiding framework is in opposition to California State Board of Education’s obligation to not adopt instructional materials "that contain any matter reflecting adversely upon persons on the basis of race.” (CA Education Code Section 51501). California teachers must "impress upon the minds of the pupils ...the promotion of harmonious relations" and not promote "discriminatory bias on the basis of race" in our classrooms. (CA Education Code Sections 233.5(a) and 51500).
