North Carolina’s first Black Lieutenant Governor, Mark Robinson is supporting an effort to keep controversial Critical Race Theory teaching out of schools. In a video shared by anti-Critical Race Theory group 1776 Action, Robinson blasted the anti-American teachings and says that children should grow up to “understand the greatness of this nation.”

According to Fox News:
“We saw a lot of domestic violence in our house,” he added. “My mother had a fifth-grade education when my father passed away. I was 12 years old – but my mother took on the task of raising us and she did it quite well.”
“The reason why is because she had an overwhelming faith in God and she knew that she lived in the greatest nation on earth – and that all opportunities were open to her and to her children, and she told us so. Because of that, because she passed those things down to us, I’m now living my dream.”
“America’s still the place of dreams for everybody. it’s still the greatest nation on earth. We want to teach that to our children. We want to make sure that our children understand the greatness of this nation, they understand the greatness of their founding documents, and those who founded the nation as well.”
“That’s why ending indoctrination in schools is such a passion of mine. We have got to ensure that things like critical race theory are not creeping in and causing our children to hate the nation that they live in.”
