Glenn Youngkin, Virginia's Republican Governor, said that teaching children in school is teaching them to judge others.
Youngkin argued that children should not be taught that they should judge one another and that one group is going to find it hard in life.
Youngkin's remarks came in an interview with Robert Costa on CBS News' " Face the Nation" Sunday where he also discussed, in part, his potential run for President in 2024, abortion, and the January 6 Capitol Riot.
Critical Race Theory was banned by Youngkin on his first day as Virginia's governor.
Insider previously reported that GOP efforts to ban it from classrooms often distort the concept of Critical Race Theory.
All history, the good and the bad, is being taught. Youngkin believes that we can bring people together around this. We shouldn't blame someone for being racist because of their race, sex, or religion. We shouldn't judge someone else.
Costa asked if the effort to ban the theory was a challenge and if it was too divisive for the governor. We want to call it the war between the states. What are you going to do?
The governor said that the scenario wouldn't happen.
Slavery was an absolute black spot in the history of our country. It has to be taught by us. This isn't a time where we're giving up on these topics.
He said that he was excited about the education agenda in Virginia.
