Social-Emotional Learning is a backdoor for CRT and gender ideology.
After returning to school, some students have complained that rather than work to get them caught up on missing a year of quality instruction, they were instead presented with pseudo-therapeutic questions about their emotional competency.
Some examples of SEL questions that students have been presented with include “How do you feel when you see two men kissing?”, or “If you didn’t have a diverse makeup of friends in your friend group, is it racist to seek out another race to fill your friend group?”
In a recent undercover journalism operation by the organization Accuracy in Media, several Idaho educators were secretly filmed admitting that though SEL was banned in Idaho under the CRT ban, they simply teach the same concepts and call it mental health or behavior adaptations.
As we have seen in the case of Florida’s anti-Grooming legislation, the pushback against indoctrinating our youth has been vociferous.
Attempts to ban sexuality and gender ideology from k-3 classrooms were intentionally misrepresented as banning the word gay from classrooms.
This raises the question: why are activists so hellbent on pushing their ideas of gender and sexuality on the kids?
The purpose of all of this miseducation is a direct attack on the family itself.
Neo-Marxists promote the same end goals as the old Marxists, including the abolition of the nuclear family, which they view as a structure of the hegemony.
When the young are made to believe that their inherent sex or race is a cause for social rejection, they infer that they were set up for this status by their own parents.
This creates resentment and a schism in the nuclear family. Many parents can attest to children returning home from school and castigating their parents for raising them with a bigoted worldview. Many relationships are irreparably severed as a result.
Despite legislation to ban certain ideologies in the classroom in many states, activists continue to re-brand their tired ideas with new labels and fill the malleable minds of the youth with divisive and subjective ideologies.

The following column is by Nicole Solas, a mother in Rhode Island
I’m just like any parent—when I enrolled my daughter in kindergarten, I wanted to know what she would learn.
In response, our school district bullied, harassed, defamed, evaded, and stonewalled me.
Then the teachers union sued me. I took my child out of public school because she no longer felt safe but I’m still taking action to get answers.
Kindergarten is a precious milestone. Our babies are not babies anymore: They go to school for full days.
Parents want to know their children are safe at school, and they want to feel confident that their children are receiving a quality education.
I knew many public schools across the country have been politicizing lessons, so I called my principal in the South Kingstown School District in Rhode Island to ask if they teach concepts of Critical Race Theory or gender theory. That question and the events that followed changed my life.
The principal said they don’t call children “boys” and “girls,” and teachers embed values of gender theory into classroom lessons.
he school told me to submit public record requests, but when I submitted what they considered to be too many requests, the school publicly threatened to sue me. They held a special public meeting to target me and treated me as if I were on trial. There, they publicized my public record requests and my personal emails.
One woman whom I’ve never met turned directly to me and called me racist.
The school even hired a PR firm to smear me in the national media. Later, the local teachers’ union had a meeting with 250 teachers where they put my name and picture on slides characterizing me as “threat to public education.”
Two months later, the Rhode Island branch of the National Education Association filed a frivolous lawsuit against me to silence me and send a message to other parents that they could be punished for asking questions too.
This is all because I did what the school told me to do: submit public record requests. I became the target of an organized and vicious attack—all because I dared to ask questions about my child’s education.
