CRT examines the intersection of law, race, and power, exploring how racial inequalities are embedded in legal systems and societal structures. The Civil Rights movement, the Slave trade, and the Civil War are typically taught in most American history classes. The key is to ensure that these topics are taught in a balanced manner that fosters understanding and empathy, rather than dividing students along racial lines.
Your point about students not knowing who Rosa Parks is, could be a reflection of the need for improvement in the current history curriculum, rather than an argument for CRT in K-12 education.
