Fighting against a “Fahrenheit 451” dystopian reality Republican conservatives like Cruz desperately desire. John’s does not limit their inclusion, apart from race they held a “Banned Books Week” that offered books on gender identity LGBTQ issues, and sex education. John’s, as an institution, must be anti-racist and eliminate racism of any type - including institutional racism.” Johns put it in 2020: “Black lives matter. As the headmaster and chair of the board of trustees at St. John’s takes a strong “anti-racism” approach. John’s School in Houston, where his daughters attend, has three volumes of antiracist books by Kendi. “Do you agree with this book that is being taught with kids that the babies are racist?” Cruz said. However, Cruz is relentless, continuing on his take-down of Jackson, he mocks Kendi’s “Antiracist baby.” “I have not reviewed any of those books, any of those ideas - they don’t come up in my work as a judge, which I am, respectfully, here to address,” Jackson responded. Jackson made it clear that as a member of the Georgetown school board, she has no control over its curriculum and teachings. “It is an astonishing book,” charged Cruz, “On, it asks the question, ‘Can we send White people back to Europe?’ … Are you comfortable with these ideas being taught to children as young as 4?” Kendi and Jason Reynolds, as reported by The Washington Post. “If you look at the Georgetown Day School’s curriculum, it is filled and overflowing with critical race theory,” Cruz alleged, holding up books he said the school has on reading lists, including “Stamped (for Kids): Racism, Antiracism and You,” by Ibram X.

In one-on-one questioning, Cruz turned the hearing into a book club, where only his opinion was valid. In the last couple of months, conservatives have turned Critical Race Theory into a polarizing issue locally and nationally, using it to describe a variety of classroom discussions about race, and alleging the conversations are discriminatory against white children, as reported by The Texas Tribune. Bombarding her on “critical race theory” – attempting to frame Jackson, the first Black woman nominated to high court, as a villain for sending her girls to a school that includes the theory in their curriculum. Ted Cruz made his questioning of Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson quite a spectacle. “Beyond that,” he added, “I will leave the legal consequences of those facts to others to worry about.Republican U.S. Previous foreign-born Americans - notably Republicans John McCain and George Romney - have run for president with some mention, but no serious challenges, of their eligibility.Ĭruz, who has made frequent trips to Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina, the first three states to hold presidential contests, has refused to say if he plans to run for president.Īsked about his presidential eligibility at the Texas Republican Convention last week, Cruz said, “I’ve disclosed all the relevant facts.
