Cultural competency is NOT CRT.  CRT has been such a distracting 'squirrel tactic' to what is intended to increase an educators knowledge and appreciation of other cultures beyond their own.  A truly fully inclusive learning environment can only be achieved by a culturally competent educator.  To be culturally competent in no way results in a decline in quality of instruction, but instead enhances it as students and teachers can build better connections and greater engagement within the learning environment.
