Condoleezza Rice says white kids shouldn’t be made to feel bad over CRT on ‘The View’

Rice also said on “The View” that Black children needed to be empowered when the issues of race are discussed.

Condoleezza Rice brought her own distinct view to the ABC daytime chatfest as the panel discussed critical race theory and its impact on children.

The former U.S. Secretary of State appeared on Wednesday’s episode of The View with hosts Whoopi Goldberg, Sunny Hostin, Joy Behar, and Sara Haines. One of the subjects they delved into was critical race theory which examines how racial bias is fundamentally embedded in the fabric of America that has shaped policy and society, generally taught to those in college.

Many conservatives have seized on it with the claim that school-aged children are being taught these fundamentals. What’s more, Republican lawmakers have also passed legislation to prevent critical race theory from these discussions in classrooms.
Rice brought up her upbringing in segregated Birmingham, Alabama. Still, she did not think the way the issue of race was addressed in schools was helpful to Black or white students. In particular, she believed that white students were being put in a position to feel guilty for the country’s racist history.
