in this week's episode, Deijhah and Tosh have a chat about critical race theory (CRT). if you have been keeping up with the news and/or social media, then you know that there is a lot of talk about CRT. in fact, many state governments across the nation have pushed to ban CRT within k-12th education. we are going to share our own thoughts and experiences on this framework.
