NEA “racial justice” guide backs left-wing priorities like defunding police, banning voter ID - Freedom Foundation

A lengthy guidebook prepared by the NEA and recently discovered by the Freedom Foundation illustrates in stunning detail the degree to which the county’s largest teachers’ union embraces the tenets of critical race theory (CRT) and how this neo-Marxist ideology serves as the basis for the union’s support of a host of damaging and controversial policies like defunding the police and banning voter ID requirements.

The guidebook, which is titled “Teachers Unions: The Roots of Power and the Path to Reform,” was compiled by the NEA in the late 1990s and was recently made available to the public by the Freedom Foundation. The guidebook provides extensive documentation of how teachers’ unions have used CRT to promote a host of policies that have negative impacts on students and the public.
