If you accept the premise, then many consequences follow.
Nobody who opposes the use of CRT in K-12 opposes teaching history, including all of it. What we oppose is teaching a history that says that white people invented slavery and the language used to talk about it, that white kids are stained with whiteness, and that the first thing a person should see is a person's skin color. If you agree those approaches to educating children are not good, then you oppose CRT.

Extremely well said.
