Can district answer what its curriculum is about?
("South Kitsap school board votes down resolution on critical race theory," June 17)  If they understand that CRT is only a theory based solely on assumptions, not one of which has been validated in forty years of testing. If they understand that CRT is a legal construct without acceptance in American jurisprudence. If they know CRT has an independent lexicon of made up words and phrases, used to justify positions that cannot withstand logical scrutiny. If those educators agree with immigrants demanding their primary culture and language be maintained in the classroom, realizing how that will serve those individuals in the greater community. If teachers are ready to accept and support behavior in the classroom that is justified as being acceptable under a students native culture. If the debate team coach will openly welcome the creation of the story telling team as a replacement. If the STEM teachers are ready undergo narrative training so they can properly teach. If the district is ready to incorporate the language of CRT (macroaggression, intersectionality, white supremacy, etc.) into current curricula. The district must have a simple way to explain that Martin Luther King was wrong and that it is the color of your skin and not character that makes a difference. Many of the teachers will certainly know how to teach about white privilege and white supremacy because they are it. Jack Hamilton, Silverdale
