Lawsuits filed against CRT in Minnesota allege it promotes harassment, intolerance

A handful of Minnesotans filed three lawsuits over discrimination, retaliation, and a work demotion they say they faced for speaking out against critical race theory.

Parties in two of the cases are required to present their claims to the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission before the lawsuits can proceed. The third case was filed in a federal court against Lakeville Area Schools. "The U.S. Constitution, the federal Civil Rights laws, and their Minnesota counterparts don’t permit this race-based discrimination, retaliation, compelled speech, and invasion of privacy," Seaton added.
