Battles over book bans reflect conflicts from the 1980s

Basically an entire article trying to conflate creationists with people that object to critical race theory aka white self-flagellation.

Right-wing critics have made a number of erroneous allegations about critical race theory: that it is taught in public schools

This is false. Liberals can keep claiming this until they're blue in the face, it doesn't negate the objective evidence to the contrary, nor the obvious counter - if it isn't taught in the first place, then why are you so upset about it being banned from being taught?

History should be taught the way it happened, not the way we wish it had happened.
