KCCI'S CHRIS GOTHNER HAS THE STORY (áááPKGááá)  THE 20-21 LEGISLATIVE SESSION HAS AT TIMES BEEN DOMINATED BY HOT-BUTTON SOCIAL ISSUES. AND TUESDAY'S HOURS- LONG DEBATE IN THE HOUSE WAS NO EXCEPTION -- AS LAWMAKERS CONSIDERED A BILL LIMITING WHAT TYPES OF DIVERSITY TRAINING PUBLIC SCHOOLS, COLLEGES AND GOVERNMENTS MAY OFFER. AFTER A SUMMER OF RELATIONS AT THE FOREFRONT...  CONSERVATIVES ARE PUSHING BACK AT WHAT THEY SEE AS "DIVISIVE CONCEPTS." &lt;10 I BELIEVE WE ARE SOWING RESENTMENT AND HATRED AGAINST OUR NATION IN A WAY THAT COULD HAVE PROFOUNDLY NEGATIVE CONSEQUENCES IN THE FUTURE&gt; THOSE SO-CALLED "DIVISIVE CONCEPTS" BANNED UNDER HOUSE FILE 802 INCLUDE IDEAS LIKE... - ONE RACE OR SEX BEING INHERENTLY SUPERIOR TO ANOTHER - THE U-S AND IOWA BEING SYSTEMICALLY RACIST OR SEXIST. - OR THAT ANYONE, BY VIRTUE OF RACE OR SEX, IS INHERENTLY RACIST, SEXIST, OR OPPRESSIVE. THIS INCLUDES CONCEPTS LIKE UNCONSCIOUS BIAS. REPUBLICAN LAWMAKERS TAKE ISSUE WITH ALL THAT. &lt;05 IOWANS DON'T BELIEVE THAT AMERICA OR THE STATE OF IOWA ARE FUNDAMENTALLY RACIST OR SEXIST&gt; UNDER THE BILL, THE TOPICS áCOULD BE DISCUSSED IN AN ACADEMIC CONTEXT. BUT DEMOCRATS ARGUE THE BILL LIMITS CRITICAL CONVERSATIONS. AND SEE IT AS IRONIC, GIVEN THE G-O-P'S FOCUS ON FREE SPEECH THIS YEAR.
