New Hampshire state representative introduces bill to ban critical race theory trainings
A state representative in New Hampshire is picking up where the former Trump administration left off — he’s introduced legislation which would ban trainings based on critical race theory.
Keith Ammon’s bill (via Christopher Rufo) would prohibit — in state contracts, grants and training programs — the teaching of “divisive concepts” such as “one race or sex [being] inherently superior to another race or sex” and that “an individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, is inherently racist, sexist or oppressive, whether consciously or unconsciously.”
The bill goes directly to the heart of philosophies espoused by those like Robin DiAngelo and Ibram Kendi as it would forbid making “any individual […] feel discomfort, guilt, anguish, or any other form of psychological distress on account of his or her race or sex.”
During a virtual hearing on February 11, Ammon says the idea for the bill came from a state university professor who wishes to remain anonymous due to fear of “backlash.” This leads to two representatives, Salle Fellows and Kris Schultz, offering expressions of, well, skepticism and disbelief. Schultz even laughs and mouths the word “coward” towards the professor.
Ammon claims the bill does not ban “diversity and inclusion training,” “limit academic discussion” nor “limit free speech.”
