Critical Race Theory

What do you think about it? Have you looked at what teachers in many cities are forcing on children?

I can't imagine anything being much worse than this if we what to unite the country (which is obviously not the goal of the Harris/Biden administration.

SOURCE PLEASE....I am not doing the work for U.

If you need me to give you a source, that tells me that the sources you go to are not doing their jobs.

I didn't ask you to do any work btw, I'm just trying to see who is informed and who is not. I believe I've gotten my answer.

UNFORTUNATELY, in viewing your most recent post about Biden at a Conference,I have reservations
about the ACCURACY of posts,IF U R not willing to source statements and provide CONCRETE facts,
I do not think the topic is credible/or worthy of a legitimate discussion. There is a decided bias that
negates a NEUTRAL "conversation"/exchange. Which is probably true of most boards/posters and
is the reason things go "south" in seeking answers.

Critical Race Theory in my mind is "neo-Marxism". the replacement of equality with "equity" is a prime example. Equity requires the redistribution of wealth, i.e. the taking of private property and distributing it along racial lines.
CRT flies in the face of Martin Luther King, Jr's concept of equality.

I agree, but I also see it rooted in some kind of sick revenge for what some white people have done in the past. It doesn't take nto account individuals, it uses blanket generalizations and sudo science to explain why white people are the problem and always have been. It's destructive and if it ever really catches hold, it will be just one more nail in this country's coffin.

After being asked about Critical Race Theory, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley delivers an answer every American should watch.

MARK MILLEY for PRESIDENT!!! Sane,sensible,stable,sees the whole picture and searches for ANSWERS. The words used would be MY stance. "a voice of reason in a time of terrible turbulence."

Just like Fox and CNN like to rile up their base, CRT wants to convince minorities they need to be compensated for history that never happened to them individually. They have a belief that reparations will compensate for incidents that happened over one hundred years ago. And it also tries to convince minorities that they cannot succeed in life despite them doing it all the time.

Quite often, CRT is misunderstood, or worse, exploited for political gain.

Critical Race Theory, or CRT, is a theoretical and interpretive mode that examines the appearance of race and racism across dominant cultural modes of expression. In adopting this approach, CRT scholars attempt to understand how victims of systemic racism are affected by cultural perceptions of race and how they are able to represent themselves to counter prejudice.

Closely connected to such fields as philosophy, history, sociology, and law, CRT scholarship traces racism in America through the nation’s legacy of slavery, the Civil Rights Movement, and recent events. In doing so, it draws from work by writers like Sojourner Truth, Frederick Douglass, W.E.B. Du Bois, Martin Luther King, Jr., and others studying law, feminism, and post-structuralism. CRT developed into its current form during the mid-1970s with scholars like Derrick Bell, Alan Freeman, and Richard Delgado, who responded to what they identified as dangerously slow progress following Civil Rights in the 1960s.

Critical race theory recognizes that systemic racism is part of American society and challenges the beliefs that allow it to flourish.
"Critical race theory is a practice. It's an approach to grappling with a history of White supremacy that rejects the belief that what's in the past is in the past, and that the laws and systems that grow from that past are detached from it," said Kimberlé Crenshaw, a founding critical race theorist and a law professor who teaches at UCLA and Columbia University.
