Austin is paying a consultant $10,000 a day to indoctrinate police in Critical Race Theory under the name of “Groundwater Analysis”:

The person they contracted with specializes in teaching Critical Race Theory. “Systemic racism,” “equity,” the whole nine yards.
But wait. It gets worse.
Attendees are required to agree to a “contract” stating that attendees must agree to certain conditions before taking the class, including:
Letter to Chief Chacon concerning shocking treatment of participants in the Joyce James critical race theory class. James demands a signed contract BEFORE THE CLASS BEGINS agreeing 100% with their Marxist curriculum. If the participant declines they are thrown out of the class! pic.twitter.com/gIEMCdgvUt

So before even taking the class, student are required to agree with the racist tenets of hard left Critical Race Theory.
That’s a Soviet May Day parade of red flags, and probably illegal under Texas law, both due to being signed under duress and because there is no “mutual consideration” between the two parties. (Also note how the facilitator made sure that no lawyers were in attendance before offering up this “contract.”)
Requiring APD officers to attend such a course, and agree to such terms a priori, is both unamerican and probably illegal.
