The ban on Critical Race Theory is having intended effects

Florida school is cancelling a talk on Civil Rights because of the fear that it is "Critical Race Theory"

>Less than 24 hours before Butler was informed of the cancellation, a state Senate committee advanced legislation Tuesday at the behest of Republican Gov. Ron DeSantis to block public schools and private businesses from making people feel “discomfort” when they’re taught about race.

Of course, this is ridiculous. Heaven forbid we be uncomfortable when discussing potentially uncomfortable topics.

This is exactly the reason for the bans on CRT - to prevent any significant addressing of the reality of racism and its history in this country.
