AINSLEY EARHARDT (CO-HOST): A heated scene in Loudoun County, Virginia, where hundreds of parents pushed back against the school board over their woke agenda.

BRIAN KILMEADE (CO-HOST): Yeah, we’ve been talking about this but also we’re seeing a lot of this. Author Douglas Murray is here to react. Douglas, what is your view of what is happening right now in America? One of the symptoms of the pandemic is parents saw what the kids were learning, and they’re reacting. 

DOUGLAS MURRAY: That’s right. CRT, like a lot of the transgender ideology, is designed to divide. That's what it's meant to do. The transgender ideology stuff is, how dare you say that the big beefy guy can't enter the women's weight lifting competition and trounce all of the women? Who are you to say, you shouldn't do that, you bigot? And the CRT agenda is a version of the same thing. It says, why can’t we talk about problematizing whiteness? Who are you to object to that, you bigot? It’s meant to divide. And so parents are right to call this out. They are right to say that you cannot talk about, for instance, white children as if they are a problem any more than you should be able to talk about Black children as if they are a problem. The people pushing this stuff have been trying to divide America, and it’s absolutely right that American parents should take any opportunity they can to say, no, we will not allow you to do this.
