CRT is a purposefully vague and misleading con-job to break the American Nation through discrimination/racism. For what purpose? Most likely to destroy America as we know it by replacing the Constitution and by instating a foreign power to control over Americans through many different means - social control, lockdowns, laws, rigged voting, fake-news media that spreads propaganda, seeding chaos and destruction by breaking law and order through defund police and riots of Antifa/BLM, using the education system for indoctrination, etc....

This is the 5th "critical race theory explained" video I've watched and I'm still no closer to understanding their exact points. All I know is that it's a bunch of people who think the system is to blame. Is that correct? The system is racist, not the people?

@Anna Murray Douglass - Abolitionist Marx believed that means if production, or power, was used to create an economic and cultural environment that legitimized and entrenched the ruling class. CRT is the same principle but it replaces social classes with racial ones. This is why cultural appropriation is such a big deal. Its theft of labor but in this instance cultural labor. The problem is that our society doesn't neatly divide power by race so CRT has the effect of using racism to prove power imbalances. While there is racism and there is power balances, they aren't always associated. So evidence of racism in the presence of power imbalance is taken as proof that one leads to the other. This is the case sometimes but often they are too separate things the interplay and feed off of each other.

The problem seems to be that a lot of people on the left feel this need to immediately see a crt critic as this enemy with views completely opposite to theirs. They feel like attacking them by saying ridiculous things like “you want to sweep history under the rug” and that’s just not the case. And then you also have the same issue of people on the right not seeing that a lot of people on the left don’t want extreme views being taught, views which try to make white kids feel guilty and views that try to make everything about race. I feel like people on the left are ignorant as to the dangers of this and people on the right are ignorant towards the great benefits. The majority of us (on the left and the right) are more similar than we are different and I don’t think we’re seeing that. At the end of the day I think the big issues surrounding crt need to be openly discussed an d addressed before we start teaching it to kids. I don’t want my kids to feel like they are being reduced to their skin color, and I’ve seen a lot of horrific clips of teachers teaching things that lead to those feelings. And I know that most of them have good intentions, it’s just that we disagree about what is harmful and what’s not and we need to have a more open discussion about it. It just gets hard when your friends on Facebook immediately turn to extremist views and then you feel like you can’t openly discuss things with them because you don’t want them to think that you’re a monster (that goes for both sides).

Political scientists ponder voting strategies coined by critical race theorists. Ethnic studies courses often include a unit on critical race theory, and American studies departments teach material on critical white students developed by CRT writers.

As a reflection of authenticity, critical race scholarship also rejects the traditional dictates that implore one to write and study as a detached observer whose work is purportedly objective, neutral, and balanced.

The most disruptive and impactful bias/racism is institutional bias/racism, whether intended or not. CRT identifies institutional bias by examining significant disparity in institutional behavior/results in certain population groups; the sources/reasons for these disparate results whether it is laws, policy, procedure, attitude or misunderstanding is located using organizational development techniques, new policies and procedures, and training aimed at changing the institution's behavior. Changing the biased attitudes and behaviors of some individuals (the deplorables) will take longer but is also the smaller problem as the offending group is small in comparison to the overall population. Institutional bias is the priority, and CRT is a great remediation tool for institutions.

If we're really going to be honest about history, we have to acknowledge (in light of the racial group predominantly responsible for pushing CRT) who actually started off the Transatlantic slave trade. We have to acknowledge how the slaves were acquired in the first place (being at least mostly slaves already acquired during tribal warfare by other blacks), the very small percentage of Southerners who actually owned slaves, that emancipated blacks owned slaves too, and the history of enslavement of whites also, especially during the Barbary slave trade but also during American history. That will never happen, though. Instead we take sole blame for everything. Incdentally, most black people in the US are not descended from slaves, but are descended from blacks who came there after the passing of the Hart Celler Act. The Hart Celler Act was the work of the exact same group of people responsible for inventing CRT, who also originated the Transatlantic slave trade. Regardless, even if most blacks in America were really descended from slaves, it doesn't change the fact they currently enjoy a far higher standard of living than they would had their ancestors remained in Africa. A number of Scots and Irish worked in the plantations also, but you never hear about those descended from Scots and Irish in the States constantly demanding special treatment and reparations.

I think it’s important to address inequalities that miniorities face, however, when teaching children at a young age that a certain demographic (poc) is at a disadvantage and are hopelessly victimized sets up a very negative mentality. Children’s minds are obviously not fully formed, so teaching ethical theories based on race to pubescent younglings is extremely detrimental to their formation(conscious). Children are not at the level to analyze such concepts that require much thought and detail, they very much think black and white (no pun intended). Teaching CRT in grade school will only cause division between races, guilt amongst white individuals, and promote a victim mentality for all those who are poc. CRT should be taught as a optional class in university only.

Is Critical Race Theory a noun or a verb? Name one of the key tenets of Critical Race Theory? Is race biologically real, or is race a social construct? Is racism a normal feature of society? Is racism embedded within systems and institutions, like the legal system, that replicate racial inequality? Is racism confined to a few “bad apples?” Is racism codified in law, embedded in structures, and woven into public policy? Why does Critical Race Theory reject claims of meritocracy or “colorblindness?” Does the systemic nature of racism bear primary responsibility for reproducing racial inequality?

@@sarahlangley8169 Your perspective is that it's not good to be colorblind, because other people aren't and they're still going to be racist and perpetuate oppression, and that somehow by being colorblind yourself you refuse to acknowledge all that. I think it's got nothing to do with it. Not seeing race doesn't mean you literally don't see that a person's skin color may get them treated differently by some people, it just means YOU personally don't consider it an important enough factor to judge them as a person (like with the eye color analogy you quoted on the page). The very reason for the entire history of racial oppresion is that people weren't colorblind. Racist ideas, attitudes and actions are the direct consequence of not being colorblind. If all people were colorblind, discrimination of any sort couldn't exist, because everyone would be treating all others as individuals first and foremost (or nay, exclusively). There would be no unconscious biases, no hiring discrimination, no racially targeted police brutality, you name it. Colorblindness doesn't mean you don't acknowledge that these things exist and should be done away with - I would argue it's quite the opposite in fact, and we could make them end precisely by turning other people colorblind. So it's not like "colorblindness is ideal only for a true post-racial society, but not yet", but in fact it's like "the only way we can bring about a true post-racial society is to encourage everyone to be colorblind". I don't buy this whole "by saying you're color-blind you're not acknowledging the plights of people of color" rhetoric, because it simply isn't logically sound - saying you're colorblind in no way implies that proposition. And if, for the sake of argument, we assume that it does - what would this acknowledgement (that's supposedly lacking) change, in practical terms, if it were present? A colorblind person will already treat a person of a different race than themselves perfectly equally in every fathomable way as is. So is there an implication that there should actually be some sort of retributive justice? Being treated equally is not enough, we need to go the extra mile? We POC have suffered for so long, so let whities suffer for a while too before we're square? I really don't get it. But obviously - being colorblind would be best if everyone were, as it would be a definitive end to racism. But just because some people say they are in a world where many are still racist, that in no way, shape or form means those people are unaware of or dismissive of said racism.

Black people therefore have no chance to get ahead in life because the cards are stacked against them from the beginning due to this all pervasive systemic racism.

It's simply not narrow enough to define what counts as "trespassing" so it's a great excuse to criminalize black people existing in public spaces.

Will CRT teach BLK kids how to be successful as adults in this country? Because, that is what is really needed.

You’re a racist.

Every discussion I’ve heard regarding this issue always resorts to “those against it just want to sweep history under the rug”. In this video they claimed some states laws passed are “vague”, but to me it seems that’s because this whole push for crt is vague. I’ve heard “it’s just history of racism”, and then “it’s to open a conversation”, etc. my question is when did we place the responsibility of teaching our kids morality? Isn’t that exactly why the founders kept church and state separate? I was taught about our history in school, so im confused what they’re claiming wasn’t taught that needs to be? I wish they would stop saying we don’t understand what crt is, yet it’s them they keeps explaining it as some umbrella ideology for good.. almost like they don’t wanna spell it out, or they plan to leave it open to individual teachers/schools to do with what they will. I always considered myself on the left, until now and it’s crazy that no one can seem to explain what changed

In one sentence, what is Critical Race Theory? What problem did Derrick Bell, Alan Freeman and other legal scholars wrestle with in the 1970s that eventually led to the founding of the Critical Race Theory movement? How did the Godfather of Critical Race Theory shatter the shining image of a celebrated Supreme Court civil rights ruling? What is the Interest-Convergence Dilemma? What was “The Alternative Course?” Name three of the founders of the Critical Race Theory movement? Who coined the term "Critical Race Theory" and what did it mean? Is Critical Race Theory a noun or a verb? Name one of the key tenets of Critical Race Theory? Is race biologically real, or is race a social construct? Is racism a normal feature of society? Is racism embedded within systems and institutions, like the legal system, that replicate racial inequality? Is racism confined to a few “bad apples?” Is racism codified in law, embedded in structures, and woven into public policy? Why does Critical Race Theory reject claims of meritocracy or “colorblindness?” Does the systemic nature of racism bear primary responsibility for reproducing racial inequality? Are people’s everyday lives relevant to scholarship? Can legal scholarship be neutral and objective? What is the goal of the Critical Race Theory movement?

The only history that is brought up in CRT is that which supports the preconceived notion that those in power are an evil "other" that those without power must fight against. The purpose is divisiveness and revolution. People who call it a "neo-Marxist" doctrine are not pulling that out of their rear-end, the concept of a class of the powerful bourgeois who are evil and a class of poor oppressed workers who are righteous is over a hundred years old, and reframing this as a racial struggle is not new either. Because the US is one of the most racially diverse nations on earth, the USSR, North Korea, China and Cuba have all had long-standing policies of enlarging the racial divide in the US. In this sense, CRT is DEEPLY anti-American. You will never learn in a CRT about whites being enslaved in Northern Africa or anywhere else. You won't hear about native tribes taking slaves in raids. Every historic fact, of the few they will teach, has been curated to support the paradigm of evil whiteness oppressing the poor black and brown.

They explained the purpose in the first 15 seconds and the methodology throughout the video. CRT provides a way of understanding America's legacy of racism. It's an interdisciplinary look at the impact of racism in America with the goal of remediating its continuing harmful impact. It uses history and economics, etc to examine policies, practices, laws, and programs for their impact on any group. It then offers recommendations on how to change the offending policies and remediate the damage. It is not rocket science, it is problem-solving 101. Find a problem, investigate, propose solutions, confirm, and launch the solution.

One of the biggest issues of CRT that I have experienced is labeling poor decisions of others in history as being "systemic" to others based on the fact that they are paler. They claim to fight "whiteness" or really anything related to what is considered to be part of the "majority culture", instead of saying that something is right or wrong regardless of your supposed "race". Ironically some groups like those of Scottish/Irish heritage were not considered to be "white" in the past because of poverty. At some point or another we need to be able to identify people as American citizens which come in every hue. Yes, there are definitely flaws in history which can be addressed in one class (have one serious discussion at a specific agreed age level that says picking on others based on any ethnicity is wrong). However, all through junior high, high school and college, the instructors in any sort of class related to social studies have been determined to show the idea of white=bad and everything else needs to be accepted as a cultural difference. Even when differences include belittling women, screaming obscenities at the person working in customer service because you can get away with it because they are "white" or just making false claims/accusations because you disagree on something as minor as your favorite flavor is considered "okay" as long as the person on the receiving end appears to be of European heritage. This shows how incredibly immature our society is because the "rules" are based on something the person has zero control over. What are paler people supposed to do? Get free cans of spray tan? Yet anything that identifies with another culture is consider "cultural appropriation", even if it was a gift from a friend (like an accessory) who happened to be from that culture. We generally understand it would not be fair to blame a son or daughter if a parent does something illegal/immoral, yet paler people are blamed for the actions of a few that many don't even know personally or potential relatives from several generations back.

@@Christopher.Colberg Are you talking about the main speaker or a person being accused of having systematic benefits in CRT? If the speaker or someone who is considered to be part of an "ethnic minority": there is a heavy emphasis on claiming to be "inclusive" by hiring or giving out scholarships to what appears to be a variety of different backgrounds. (It looks good on paper and in advertising and not ticking off the boxes to show inclusiveness is frowned upon.) Even if a person looking to higher attempts to only pick qualified individuals, some people may be overlooked simply based on not wanting a company or school to appear to be "too white" because that can lead to loss of funding. Even if the vast majority of individuals who have qualifications fall into a few ethnic groups, the company can lose credibility via the media very quickly because they didn't hire enough of a variety. If a person being accused through CRT, the claim is usually that the system was originally set up by white males (despite several adjustments made over the years to try to compensate for any flaws, people will throw out good policies with bad). Some want to claim that simply having American English as the standard in schools instead of having the option of a tribal language from every continent (nice in theory, but it makes creating everything from textbooks to testing material more complicated and gives underpaid teachers an even larger stack of work to do) gives a "white advantage" to those raised with English as their first language.

Our history calls for this PRESUMPTION." "Words That Wound: Critical Race Theory, Assaultive Speech, and the First Amendment" by Matsuda, Lawrence III, Delgado, and KIMBERLE' WILLIAMS CRENSHAW Those are their words from their intellectual papers: It is the entire foundation of the premise.

I used to work in a kitchen as a sous chef. My boss, the chef, (and the GM) weren’t white (I was). We worked together pretty well and I think we were all aware that whatever we let pass in terms of substance abuse, racism, sexism, etc. was going to be a part of the kitchen culture. When we were clear on what wasn’t acceptable people figured out pretty quickly where they were and what was the social norm. One employee being reprimanded or called out had a knock-on effect on the culture. You didn’t have to preach. Word got around. It’s a little social microcosm-just a small sample-but it really made me thoughtful about the connections between ‘leadership responsibility’, ‘specific accountability’ and ‘systemic/cultural norms’. When I think about the LA riots, for example, it’s hard to imagine that the failure to hold the cops who beat Rodney King on camera responsible (at the legislative level) could do anything but broadly condone racism in the culture of policing. The verdict clarified the behaviour as basically excusable. It’s shocking. On the other hand, had they been held strictly accountable (even with some severity) it’s hard to imagine no knock-on effect on police culture. Groups and group dynamics are a part of the picture but I think there’s a necessary way of _relating_ the role of specific, personal accountability (via leadership) to the shaping of cultural norms. In other words, we may not have to take an either/or view of systemic problems and personal accountability.

Maybe someone can help me. Consider Theory in the context and standards of science and scholarship: 1) A theory is a well-substantiated explanation of an aspect of the natural world that can incorporate laws, hypotheses and facts. 2) A theory not only explains known facts; it also allows scientists to make predictions of what they should observe if a theory is true. Scientific theories are testable. New evidence (historical or current) should be compatible with a theory. If it isn't, the theory is refined or rejected. If critical race theory really is a theory, then what are its predictions? What could one observe that would cause us to reject it? I've not seen any article on CRT that describes its predictions, lays out what observations would negate the theory, and demonstrates that CRT actually models what we observe in society. If critical race theory isn't a theory in the sense we would expect from science and scholarship, then it is something else. An ideology? A religion? CRT theorists themselves assert "The critical race theory (CRT) movement is a collection of activists and scholars engaged in studying and transforming the relationship among race, racism, and power. The movement considers many of the same issues that conventional civil rights and ethnic studies discourses take up but places them in the broader perspective that includes economics, history, setting, group and self-interest, and emotions and the unconscious. Unlike traditional civil rights discourse, which stresses incrementalism and step-by-step progress, critical race theory questions the very foundations of the liberal order, including equality theory, legal reasoning, Enlightenment rationalism, and neutral principles of constitutional law."

The more I try to find a clear and concise explanation of CRT the more videos I find that seem meander around the meaning. I'm still not entirely sure what it is or how it is used in education. When I went to school it never really felt like my teachers were sugar coating American history. I learned about the atrocities of slavery and injustices handed out by America's forefathers, like the Trail of Tears for example. The best explanation I've heard is that it is a view that some laws, even to this day, were created to specifically target minorities and that they should be taught in a way that focuses on that fact. Nixon's "war on drugs" comes to mind. And that with those laws still being enforced today it creates an environment that helps breed prejudice, bigotry, and inequality. Is that a proper explanation?

Themes of CRT as listed in "Critical Race Theory: An Annotated Bibliography" by Delgado and Stefancic: 1. Critique of liberalism 2. Storytelling/"naming one's own reality" 3. Revisionist interpretations of American civil rights law and progress (1619 project; anti-incrementalism) 4. Greater understanding of the underpinnings of race and racism ("systemic" racism found everywhere they look) 5. Structural Determinism (where anti-meritocracy comes from) 6. Race, sex, class and their intersections ("intersectionality"/queer theory) 7. Essentialism and anti-essentialism (identity politics) 8. Cultural nationalism/separatism (including "black insurrection")

American history is gradually losing its revisionist propaganda, but unfortunately, the old revisionism is being replaced by new propaganda such as "post-racial America". 4. there is systemic racism/bias in all of our institutions, and its results are everywhere. 5. this country has never been a meritocracy. Every benefit and opportunity has been directed at elites or Europeans 6. what is wrong with intersectionality - you cannot fight racism without addressing its intersectionality 7. this country has always been politically divided; a never-ending civil war. it has nothing to do with CRT. 8. Cultural nationalism - seems to be the continuing purview of the right, to wit the Charlottesville March and the Jan 6 insurrection, with white supremacists chanting "Jews will not replace us" and the segregated nature of this country - black folk did not segregate it! Crt is an advanced interdisciplinary construct used to analyze the public impact of policies, practices, and laws - nothing more and nothing less.

Complete fallacy, but it works on children who still trust the authority in the room. This has been going on since the 50s as an export of the global Communism movement. The original goal was to weaken the US, the principle enemy of global Communism at the time, by strumming up racial hatreds. The goal right now is basically the same; to tear down the "inherently racist" America and rebuild it with more equity, diversity, and inclusion.
