The below YouTube video is from April 22, 2021. One can clearly see lots of people present. The whole video runs for over an hour-and-a-half, with edits, as it was apparently cut down from a three-plus hour session:
Below is another tweet describing a specific part of the video, where they talk about segregating BIPOC children and having them talk about the "white dominant narrative."

They start with BIPOC focused “listening and learning sessions” where they break students up into groups. First topic discussed with students: “Tributes to White Dominant Narrative”. pic.twitter.com/B4ZaOmxE7o
CRT is an alternative theory of the history of America and the Western Hemisphere in general. It states that America is inherently racist and damaged, and looks down on notions like capitalism, meritocracy and individualism.
To say the least, CRT is a controversial subject. It has been promoted by some, but discredited by others. Famously, The New York Times has felt the need to edit post-hoc some of its statements on the "1619 Project" (without publishing a correction), of which are some of the foundational documents of CRT.
Several states, such as Michigan and Ohio, have moved to outright ban the use of CRT materials as part of any official instruction or training in any government institution. Other states have appeared to embrace it.
