I've heard similar arguments being made about teaching CRT in school. Are you really saying ABCDs are so confused about their own identity that they'll cling on

  I think it's pretty normal as a human to attach oneself to various identity groups (An anodyne example being local sports teams), and the more you salience an identity, the more likely and more strongly individuals are to attach themselves to that identity. It seems like that could in fact an issue with race-centric DEI training, at least per the one study I found at short notice[0]. But that needs to be weighed against the potential benefits and the fact that race relations are a significant issue across America society regardless of whether we address it explicitly or not. With caste discrimination, the issue currently exists within a very small slice of American society (immigrants born in India). So even a small negative effect across the rest of American society would wipe out even the most significant improvements in that slice.
