Discussions also focused on the history of race and how the subject should be taught.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These are hard issues,&#8221; Jennifer Watkins, associate director at the institution said, according to ABC 13 in Asheville. &#8220;It\u2019s hard for people to understand different perspectives. But one key thing we really need to do is to practice having discussions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/media\/pentagon-disbands-dei-unit-chief-accused-racism-against-whites-injects-agenda-deeper-agency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>PENTAGON DISBANDS DEO UNIT AFTER CHIEF ACCUSED OF \u2018RACISM\u2019 AGAINST WHITES, INJECTS AGENDA DEEPER INTO AGENCY<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Similarly, Heather Tate, who organized the event, praised the workshop for sparking conversations about race. Her take was shared on the Crisis in the Classroom Twitter account.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s important for all ages, from kindergarten to three-year-olds to grown folks to middle schoolers to be having conversations about racial equity and race in our country,&#8221; she said.<\/p>\n<p>The notion raises concerns among those who allege the content incites division and perpetuates some controversial principles found in critical race theory, a system of thought that observes the way power structures and systems \u2013 namely government and corporations \u2013 disproportionately affect racial and ethnic minorities.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/racists-anonymous-insane-ways-university-florida-conquered-dei\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong><u>OPINION: \u2018RACISTS ANONYMOUS\u2019 IS JUST ONE OF THE INSANE WAYS UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA HAS BEEN CONQUERED BY DEI<\/u><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/fighting-critical-race-theory-racist-ideology-dr-ben-carson\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">allegedly &#8220;racist&#8221;
