Teaching activist talks about selling illegal critical race theory curriculum

A leading diversity, equity, and inclusion director was caught on tape admitting that he sells illegal lesson plans that teach critical race theory to young students.

Dr. Quintin Bostic made the admission while being secretly recorded by the conservative advocacy group Project Veritas.

In videos released by the group, Bostic can be heard bragging about how he is willingly violating state laws with his lesson plans. He describes himself as an “evil salesman.”

He goes on to call Gov. Brian Kemp (R-GA) an “idiot” and share how he got around Georgia’s ban on the material being taught.

“And [the state] don’t even know what’s going on,” Bostic told the undercover Project Veritas employee with a grin. “I would say I’m a good salesman, but I’m also an evil salesman. Like, so bad.”

He can also be heard acknowledging that what he is teaching is illegal and that if authorities were to catch wind of his true activity, he would be “nailed.”

“[Critical race theory] is banned— it’s still banned in the schools,” he said, going on to acknowledge that he teaches it anyway. “And, on top of that, if you don’t say the word ‘critical race theory,’ you can technically teach it.”

He also admitted to taking a hands-on approach behind the scenes, portraying himself almost like a puppeteer.

“We’re teaching diversity. We’re teaching [to] love all humans. And I’m … behind the scenes, like, ‘Teach it like this though. Make sure you say this and use these words and use this book,'” he said.

Bostic’s website describes him as a leading educational figure for diversity, equity, and inclusion programs.

“Quintin’s Ph.D. research examines how ideas of race, racism, and power are communicated through children’s picturebooks. He currently serves as a Partnerships Manager for the Teaching Lab. Quintin also serves as the Antiracism Co-Chair for the National Association for Professional Development Schools (NAPDS),” his website reads.
