In recent years,CRT has begun to enter the curriculum of K-12 public schools in the United States,becoming a path to cultivate students'social-emotional compe-tence and maintain educational equity.However,with the intensification of racial conflicts and the rise of populism,there is a fierce debate in American society about the existence or abolition of CRT in K-12 public school curriculum.Opponents accuse the theory of hinder-ing the racial identity recognition of primary and secondary school students,distorting American history,and undermining social consensus;Supporters believe that this theory can enhance students'awareness of multiculturalism and enhance the classroom dialogue on race and history issues.This curriculum game centered on CRT reflects the current com-petition between the two Parties in the United States for ideological dominance in the field of public education.K-12 public schools in the United States need to recognize the short-comings of existing curriculum governance,promptly eliminate cognitive biases that affect curriculum setting,and further expand the space of culturally relevant courses.
