You’re quite right that the bill says nothing about white people. I am somewhat curious which group you think is feeling guilt over their ancestors’ actions in America due to CRT, though.
That said, I personally take issue with the bill for a completely different reason, partially outlined by a FL Senator:
To me, this bill does one of two things:
1) Sets it up where any discussion of the vile **** we did as a nation is illegal to teach or talk about in the workplace because it might make someone feel uncomfortable or guilty.
2) Essentially nothing, as it’s legislating against a mostly sensationalized version of these lessons or trainings. While there are some out there that think that white people need to openly think of themselves as oppressors, it’s really not common. It is common to declare the nation was built on a framework of open racism, but that doesn’t just mean it follows that the conclusion is all white people are individually bad. You might stop some idiots from doing this, but it’s largely pointless if this is genuinely all it wants to stop.
Also, it’s insane to me that the Right would include diversity training in private workplaces to this bill. It’s one thing to legislate this regarding public schools, but how is this not exactly stifling free speech of private individuals in the course of running their business?
