This is why they rail against college education so hard: because a collegiate education often requires you to study things like this, which in turn opens your mind to differing ideas. Which they screech about as "That liberal indoctrination stole my child from me!"
I've heard many formerly conservative peeps say something like that: Nobody indoctrinated me, I just met the people who were supposed to be othered and it turns out they are cool.
For the record: Same at schools - nobody is saying you gotta be gay or trans, but apparently just telling kids that different people exist is a threat to their indoctrinated lifestyle.
The regressive are working hard on eliminating quotas and content about minority groups so that their fragile followers don't need to interact with or even acknowledge minority populations in colleges.
