The Great Parent Revolt: A Battle Against Critical Race Theory in American Schools

In recent years, a significant grassroots movement has emerged across the United States, echoing a widespread concern among parents about the direction of education in their children’s schools. This phenomenon, dubbed The Great Parent Revolt, is characterized by parents and local leaders actively resisting the incorporation of Critical Race Theory (CRT) and related ideological teachings into classrooms nationwide. Lance Izumi, senior director at the Pacific Research Institute and co-author of the book The Great Parent Revolt: How Parents and Grassroots Leaders Are Fighting Critical Race Theory in America’s Schools, sheds light on this rising tide of parental activism.
