Pence Blasts Biden’s Push for Critical Race Theory as an ‘Assault on American Culture and Values’

Former Vice President Mike Pence on Thursday blasted the Biden administration’s pushing Critical Race Theory (CRT) in schools throughout the United States, calling the effort a “wholehearted embrace of the radical left’s all-encompassing assault on American culture and values.”

“They abolished our 1776 Commission and authorized teaching critical race theory in our schools,” said Pence. “Instead of teaching all of our children, regardless of race or creed or color, to be proud of their country, critical race theory teaches children as young as kindergarten to be ashamed of their skin color.”

Pence was the featured speaker at the annual Lincoln Reagan Dinner, hosted by the Hillsborough County Republicans in Manchester, New Hampshire, to give his second public speech since leaving office in January.

Under President Donald Trump, the 1776 Commission was created to counter Marxist teaching models like CRT and the 1619 project by having the commission “take historic and scholarly steps to restore an understanding of the greatness of the American founding.”

“Our founders said that we were to strive for a more perfect union,” Pence continued. “And so we have done throughout the long and storied history of this country. And while we are not perfect yet, we ought to do justice to all the progress that has been made and recognize that the United States of America is the most just, noble, and inclusive nation that has ever existed on the face of the earth.”

In a letter sent to the Department of Education in May 2021, the 1776 Commission’s Executive Director Matthew Spalding advocated for the elimination of any race-based K-12 curricula.

“The Proposed Rule should be withdrawn, just as individual states, which actually have the authority over the nation’s K-12 educational system, should oppose race-based pedagogy as part of their curricula and even if attempted to be imposed by the federal government,” wrote Spalding.
