Ted Cruz asks Ketanji Brown Jackson about critical race theory

Published | Video Starts at 12:27

When you just testified a minute ago that you didn't know if Critical Race Theory was taught in K through 12, I will confess I find that statement a little hard to reconcile with the public record. Because If you look at the Georgetown Day Schools curriculum, it is filled and overflowing with Critical Race theory that among the books that are either assigned or recommended, they include Critical Race Theory, an introduction, they include the End of Policing, An Advocacy for Abolishing police. They include how to Be an Anti Racist by Ibram Kendi. They include literally stacks and stacks of books. And I'll tell you two of the ones that were most stunning. They include a book called Anti Racist Baby by Ibram Kendi. (12:27–13:01)
