The Michigan Civil Rights Commission last week took a stand in favor of academic freedom, passing a resolution opposing two pieces of state legislation that would ban Critical Race Theory in K-12 public schools.
The commission on Monday, Nov. 22 discussed Senate Bill 460 and House Bill 5097, asserting a stance against âany and all legislation that promotes censorship and book banning.â
The resolution states that the proposed legislation âprovides for censorship for educators and gives students an inaccurate and incomplete account of the history of the United States.â
