Quick answer
Does America's Moms cover critical race theory?
Yes. Critical race theory in schools is one of the five main themes of America's Moms. In the documentary, Black and multiracial parents tell their school boards they will not have their children taught that they are oppressed, or victims, because of the color of their skin.
For immediate release · Wrong Speak Films · — Some of the strongest voices against critical race theory in America's Moms are parents of color. At school board podiums, they argue that teaching children to see each other by race keeps racism alive instead of ending it.
"I am not oppressed"
One speaker, a descendant of people enslaved in Alabama and Texas, tells his school board he travels the country and is treated "with kindness, dignity and respect" coast to coast — and that he will not have his children taught they are victims.
A biracial, bilingual father in North Carolina thanks his board for a nondiscrimination resolution, saying anyone who tells his children they are oppressed because of the color of their skin "would be absolutely wrong."
A virtual field trip parents didn't sign off on
An Iowa single mother of a biracial son recalls a fourth-grade virtual field trip — a children's play about racism — that went ahead without parental permission, and the backlash she got for asking why.
