American Federation of Teachers (AFT) president Randi Weingarten on Thursday defended The New York Times’ controversial “1619 Project” and critical race theory, saying their opponents have no idea what they are actually about.
During an interview with Black News Channel, Weingarten was asked about how black and Hispanic students returning to classrooms deal with an environment that is “hazardous to them,” because the curriculum doesn’t necessarily reflect “their history” and “their culture.”
