The legislation does not specifically name critical race theory, but outlaws more specific concepts often associated with the study. Critical race theory analyzes how race and racism shaped the United States and continue to influence the U.S. today in the form of alleged inequalities among races.<\/p>\n<p>Critics of the theory say that it oversimplifies and misdiagnoses the causes of inequality in the United States, and also promotes damaging falsehoods such as the existence of widespread, systemic racism in the United States.
