Ted Cruz / IMAGE: Yahoo Finance via YouTube (The Center Square) – Critics are questioning a taxpayer-funded program that trains students in critical race theory.
The backlash comes after The Center Square uncovered federal grant documents from the Department of Education that showed the federal government has awarded millions of dollars to a program that trains future educators in critical race theory .
Experts said the program disproves claims that critical race theory is not being pushed at K-12 schools.
“Critical Race Theory is inherently bigoted and it is a lie,” U.S. Sen.

That program is named, “The Research Institute for Scholars of Equity,” or RISE. As part of the federally-funded program, participating students receive a $5,000 stipend, travel allowance, and money for food and housing. According to promotional materials and grant documents, RISE students are taught to use critical race theory as a framework by which […]
