WATCH: Tucker Carlson blasts critical race theory being taught in schools, and talks about those fighting against it

Tucker Carlson took on the National Education Association, the largest union in the country Monday night, for mandating Critical Race Theory in all K-12 schools.

"If you made the mistake of going online this weekend, you saw them pouring out their misery on social media instead of enjoying hotdogs and fireworks with the kids. They don't have, they were on Twitter, yelping about slavery and white supremacy. And what a terrible place the United States is. It’s easy to ignore people like this, you just turn off your screen and then go live your life."

Carlson explained why that was not possible. "Unfortunately, it is much harder to shield your children from them. That's the problem case in point last week, the largest teachers’ union in the country, the National Education Association announced that its new and first priority is making anti-American indoctrination, race-based indoctrination, mandatory in every classroom, in the country."

According to Carlson, "All K through 12 schools, the union declared, must teach children white supremacy, anti-blackness, anti indigeneity, racism, patriarchy, cisheteropatriarchy, capitalism, ableism, and anthropocentrism are embedded in every aspect of American society. So, if you're a straight white American, even if you're a very small child, you are guilty. It’s your fault, you're a bad person, that's what teachers will be telling your children."

Carlson then mocked the teachers apparent lack of historical and literature knowledge. "The teacher's union ended the statement with this line, which is so hilariously revealing that does belong in a museum somewhere. As the ancient African proverb says, 'know thyself, the African proverb,' except it's not an African proverb. 'Know thyself' is of course Greek. As any literate person knows it was inscribed by the ancient Greeks in the temple of Apollo at Delphi. But the teacher's union, did not know this. So not only are these people crazed ideologues. They are stupid. Your children are being taught by some of the most ignorant people in the country."

Carlson they played a montage of various left leaning TV personalities accusing Republicans of manufacturing Critical Race Theory, as some kind of political boogeyman.

Carlson continued, "Despite the fact that teachers’ union just spelled out in a document calling for more, critical race theory. But if you notice that if you object in any way to the current obsession with race, the one subject no normal person really wants to obsess over, then you yourself are obsessed with race and you must be stopped because you're dangerous… all of them are saying that, and as always, they're saying it in unison."

"So, what does the average person do about that? What does it take to fight back against it? And of course you should be fighting back against it. Cause everything is at stake. You can't have a multiracial democracy if people retreat into their tribes and hate each other as this curriculum teaches them to do it. So what do you do? Well, whatever you do, it's going to take some courage."

Carlson then told the story of Daniel Concannon, an administrator at Northwest Elementary School in Manchester, who was forced to participate in training about the fundamental moral flaws, inherent to white people as an American. Even though he needed the job, and as someone who admired Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., he objected to this. He resigned and concluded his resignation letter with, "I wish the Trotsky disciples at Manchester school district, nothing but failure in their ongoing quest for civilizational degradation. I leave you with the only verbal response, but fitting an attempt at anti-white indoctrination. F*** you."

Carlson then played a video of a father who showed up at a school board meeting recently in Illinois who called out the inherent racism in Critical Race Theory. "You deliberately teach kids this black kid right here. Got it better than you because he white perfectly tell a white kid. Oh, black people are all down to suppress. How do I have two medical degrees? And I'm sitting here. No mom, no dad in the house worked my way through college, sat there and hustled my butt off to get through college. You gonna tell me somebody, it looked like all y'all white folks kept me from going there. Are you serious? I do this stuff on a daily basis. I'm in the hood, I'm in the communities. I'm out there with folks and they face I've been doing stuff since I was 18 years old talking to black folks. So you know what? None of them are buying this nonsense. No one white person ever don't keep any of them from getting there."

Carlson joked, "It must be one of those alt-right Q Anon people CNN is warning you about!” The Fox News host added, “The overwhelming majority of Americans and pollsters have found this pretty clearly think this is insane. They think you should judge people by what they do, not on the basis of their skin color."

Carlson then called for action. He called Critical Race Theory "civilization ending poison." He concluded, "How widespread is it? Well, we can't really be sure. Until we finally get cameras in the classroom, as we put them on the chest of police officers, until we finally get a civilian review board in every town in America to oversee the people, teaching your children, forming their minds."
