AI Summary
This bill prohibits the use of the 1619 Project initiative of the New York Times, as well as other similar curricula that are considered to be implementing "critical race theory," in public schools and state-supported higher education institutions in Missouri. The bill defines "curriculum implementing critical race theory" as any curriculum that identifies people or groups as inherently sexist, racist, or oppressed, or that perpetuates stereotypes and assigns blame for societal problems based on characteristics like race, income, or gender identity. The bill requires the state board of education and the attorney general to take action, including withholding up to 10% of state funding, if schools or higher education institutions are found to be in violation of the provisions of the bill.
