Two of the state’s conservative advocacy groups have partnered to oppose the controversial critical race theory (CRT) in front of the state school board.

The Alabama Policy Institute (API) and Eagle Forum of Alabama have offered a resolution to the Alabama State School Board opposing the teaching of CRT in Alabama public schools, according to a release from the organizations.

The resolution was “prepared with expert input and analysis of the growing trend nationwide to inject the misguided concept that by their very existence our children are born either oppressor or oppressed and that nothing they can say or do will change that,” wrote API’s Phil Williams in a letter to the board.

Several states around the country have already taken steps to prohibit CRT from becoming part of their curriculums.

In Alabama, State Rep. Chris Pringle (R-Mobile) has sponsored a bill to ban the teaching of CRT in the state’s public school system.

Pringle did not mince his words during a recent appearance on “The Jeff Poor Show” in Mobile.

“This is just indoctrination — the woke culture indoctrination of our children,” Pringle said. “That’s all it is and it needs to be stopped in its tracks.”

Williams pointed to Alabama’s ability to overcome racial problems in the past as providing the state with a better perspective.

“To be sure Alabama has had its issues with racial injustice,” he noted. “That is a part of our history. But our history is also replete with a legacy of value, success, achievement and the very roots of the civil rights movement. No state has come further than Alabama.”

Pringle indicated that CRT will become an issue many other states will have to confront.

“People are waking up all around the nation to how bad this stuff is,” he remarked. “I mean, this is woke cancel culture gone completely amuck. They want to completely disregard our 14th and 15th Amendment rights, the Voting Rights Act, the Civil Rights Act.”
