Mississippi Senate Bill 2113, which purports to ban so-called "Critical Race Theory," passed committee in the state House of Representatives Monday. If it's signed into law, the legislation could be used to limit what can and cannot be taught in college-level social science and law courses. That's according to Morgan Atkins, who's a Public Policy student at the University of Mississippi, and the school's Associated Student Body President.
