League of Women Voters of the Pikes Peak Region is hosting an educational discussion, “Civics Education: Is Critical Race Theory a Factor?” on September 25, 2021 at 1:00 pm, at the KCH MacLaren Hall at Knights of Columbus Hall, Penrose Library, 20 W. Pikes Peak Ave.

This civics education discussion will be led by two educational experts, National Social Studies Council President Anton Schulzki, and Professor at Pikes Peak Community College and Saybrook University Dr. Nathaniel Granger. The League is a non-partisan organization and our goal is to help get information to voters - that includes educational topics like Critical Race Theory. This is an opportunity to learn what Critical Race Theory is, what it isn’t, and how it affects civics education in schools.

This discussion is a safe learning opportunity. For the first hour, Dr. Nathaniel Granger and Anton Schulzki will take part in a panel discussion with questions posed by the League, followed by an opportunity for the audience to ask questions. For the second half, participants will be split into breakout sessions, led by Dr. Nathaniel Granger and Anton Schulzki for a more intimate chat.
