New York City mayor Eric Adams is requiring new training for his city employees.
Reports are breaking that CRT training is now mandatory.
Of course, the city is pushing back on this claim.
The Deadline
According to the reports, all city employees have until March 6 to complete the required training.
An email sent out stated, “The training provides all NYC employees with a framework to understand… the importance of racial equity… in the workplace.”
A source familiar with the training stated, “Where they were discussing equity, how we have to look at people through a particular lens, that contradicted… [the idea that] we should treat everybody equally.
“I do not agree with what they want us to do as city employees.
“The [racial equity training] leads me to believe that they want the contracts with the city and the hiring from the city being looked at through this lens.
“And that’s what I think is really unfair. It goes against their [stated claims]… that everybody should be treated equally.”
City officials responded, “It is irresponsible to equate two separate things as the same. In reality, for years, city employees have completed EEO and Diversity & Inclusion training, and the ‘Everybody Matters: EEO and Diversity & Inclusion Training’ has nothing to do with Critical Race Theory.
“Employees have been completing this training every two years, and trainings like these ensure that the city workplace remains a welcoming and fair environment for all New Yorkers.”
