Mom complains on Fox News that biracial son won't do chores because of CRT, sues his school
The mother of a biracial 13-year-old is suing a Virginia school district over its usage of critical race theory, which, she claimed, caused him to start "seeing himself just as a Black man."
Melissa Riley, a mother from the Charlottesville area, told Fox News on Monday that she noticed a significant change in her son's perspectives after the Albemarle School District rolled out anti-racist curricula.
"We didn't have issues before. He is in eighth grade," Riley told host Jesse Watters on Monday. "He's seeing himself just as a Black man. He's seeing things that don't go his way as racism. And he is finding safety in numbers now."
Riley went on to allege that her son is now attempting to invoke racism in order to get out of his chores.
"I asked him to clean the house, [he said] 'racism,'" she told Watters.
"You are kidding, right?" he responded. "Or are you serious?"
"No. I'm serious," Riley insisted. "They have totally changed his perspective. They have put him in a box."
