It’s the most rejected books in the state’s history.
The board rejected a record 54 out of 132 textbooks, with a higher number of rejected books marketed for use in grades K-5. A full 71% of textbooks for elementary grades were rejected.
Critical Race Theory , a term originally coined by legal scholars, means recognizing the ways racism has manifested throughout history and its continued impact on today’s institutions. It sees racism as systemic and current, not an isolated incident relegated to the past. Conservatives have successfully re-appropriated the term to mean any discussion about the existence of racism, or even bringing up the subject of race.
The amendment calls out the 1619 Project, a Pulitzer prize-winning collection of writings that re-frame history by centering Black Americans, as precisely the type of curriculum that it bans, and specifies that course material “may not define American history as something other than the creation of a new nation based largely on universal principles stated in the Declaration of Independence.”
How the Board of Education saw these concepts in math books is very unclear, and no examples have been offered by those rejecting the books.
