CRT, or Critical Race Theory is a political tactic being used in an attempt to whitewash the racism that has been deeply rooted in the falsehoods of "Black" cultural. It is a phantom dispute brought on by the so called "powers that be" as yet another distraction away from what they call "Black" history, although in reality, it is American history.
It is presented in a scare tactic to all society that the truth of "Black" history and culture can somehow harm the feelings of any other race group. It is a ply to pull at the heart strings of "Black" Americans that continue to be faithful in the forgiveness of our long suffering and abuse from this country.
We are here to proclaim that anyone's mere feelings hold NO comparison to the reality of the "Black" struggle that has been endured for centuries and is still ongoing. It's as if to say that "Blacks" do not feel; they we do not hurt or suffer, and that is a bold-faced LIE!
This is why it is surely important that we first learn our own roots, heritage, and family legacies and pass this knowledge down to our youth! This is what a whole village raising a child looks like. And trust, there is a multitude of youth on up needing to tap into this knowledge!
Here are a few ways that we can start properly and proudly educating ourselves and our youth:
1. Read and research with your children: Take advantage of the web, libraries, and bookstores to read up on resources that offer true history. This would make for good, quality family time!
2. Educational Family Reunions: Family reunions can be a blast! Make sure to involve our youth and connect them with family they may not know. Bring some history to the table. Take it a step further and set up monthly family zoom meetings to stay connected all year long rather than just once a year.
3. Family History Books: Gather family information and create a scrap book or "family history book" to share and pass on family knowledge. Ask our team how we can help you publish those books for the whole family to enjoy!
4. Connecting with your elders and other family members: Tap into your elders now while you still have the opportunity. Pick their brains and discover family history that you may not know! More importantly, remember to pass it on!
We would love for you to share any other suggestions on this matter in the comment section! the comment section!
Our children should learn their history from us as parents. Everything starts at home. These simple family conversations can start over the breakfast or dinner table.
