    Critical Race Theory is anti-White brainwashing. It's a curious kind of "choice" when if any White person says anything in support of their racial group they'd better look out for their job, their safety and potentially even their freedom from incarceration. What kind of CHOICE is that anti-Whites? The System is anti-White Anti-racist is a code word for anti-White ...and it's getting more obvious every day.

    There is a difference between teaching the truth about what has happened in this country, and teaching to view race relations through a very specific lens. One that is not always accurate, and is in some cases against free speech. The writer in this video is correct, it's pedagogy by another name. I am a liberal, and believe fully in the concept of police reform, and policies that provide for the betterment of all people. I know as fact that this country has acted in a racist fashion, and still has laws that are racist. All of that needs to be known and addressed. But the way the left is choosing to go about this is very ham fisted, and forget engrained the concept of race. We should be teaching our children how to look past differences so we can build a better future, not further entrenching concepts of identity. If you want a disgruntled populace, help telling them that society is inherently racist. Or on the conservative side, keep telling them about CRT. This is a perfect example of where the left goes too far. And the writer on this broadcast wasn't even really allowed to make a case. For the record, there are a number of black intellectuals who are also against CRT. I'd suggest attempting to understand what they're saying, because it's very important to the future of free speech and a non-reactionary public discourse.

    CRT starts in law school, rapidly spread into other fields, including education. "Although CRT began as a movement in the law, it has rapidly spread beyond that discipline. Today, many in the field of education consider themselves critical race theorists who use CRT’s ideas to understand issues of school discipline and hierarchy, tracking, controversies over curriculum and history, and IQ and achievement testing. 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. Unlike some academic disciplines, critical race theory contains an activist dimension. It not only tries to understand our social situation, but to change it." -- Critical Race Theory. An Introduction. Third edition. by Richard Delgado and Jean Stefancic

    "Not My Idea" is written by Anastasia Higginbotham, who is not connected with CRT, but instead writes developmental books for children in a way they can understand on an array of topics, not just race. It has gotten rave reviews from not only teachers, but many, many parents, as well. Christopher Rufo is not any kind of expert, but just another grifter that found a niche in the Reich-wing to exploit. Here, he dishonestly attempts to conflate one (White) author's attempt to teach children to think about race in our everyday lives----who was inspired by another author, Toni Morrison, not CRT----with CRT. He also falsely conflates a liberal suburb of Chicago, Evanston, where the book is being used as part of the curriculum, with the whole Chicago school system.

    I don't think white people want their kids to know that white adults called six-year-old Ruby Bridges the n-word and choose to pull their kids out of school for a year when she desegregated elementary schools in Louisiana. And they sure as heck don't want them to find out that the white 13-year-old designated as the Youngest Freedom Rider actually tipped off those civil rights workers to the planned KKK attack (I think her dad or another relative was in the Klan, which is how she found out) on them.

    CRT rejects objective, neutral, and balanced as white value, advocates subjectivity and political activism. "A major theme of critical race theory reflects the colored intellectual's persistent battle to avoid being rendered inauthentic by the pressures of adapting to the white world and, instead, to take an oppositional stance by relying on one's true existential life, which is rooted in a world of color even though not stuck there... 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. In the classic sense of "professing", critical race scholars advocate and defend positions." Fran Olsen points out that traditional scholarship's appearance of balance presupposes a status quo baseline that hinders both understanding... --Critical race theory, archie shep, and fire music: securing an authentic intellectual life in a multicultural world by John O. Calmore "Critical race theorists embrace subjectivity of perspective and are avowedly political. ...We use personal histories, parables, chronicles, dreams, stories, poetry, fiction, and revisionist histories to convey our message." -- Words that wound. critial race theory, assaultive speech, and the first amendment. by Mari J.

No K-12 child is taking CRT, that is for graduate school. What the Republicans and conservative groups are really trying to do is stop history from being taught. They don't want to come to grips with the messed up things many of their ancestors did to gain and maintain their wealth and power. Because if they found out the hard truth it would be harder to justify their support for this broken system that America has.

    It’s 2021 and descendants of enslaved Africans are still marching, kneeling and protesting 18th century racism and white supremacist ideology and you’re making a million excuses to oppose equality and to avoid doing the work it would take to eradicate it. But it seems white America is content to keep pretending that a civil rights act, not EQUAL RIGHTS, but “civil” rights act is the equivalent to disavowing and eradicating racism and white supremacist ideology; making atonement and restitution for the centuries of government sanctioned and taxed enslavement, mental/physical torture, family separation, denial of education and cultural knowledge and religion, the still unpaid slave labor transformed this newly formed nation an economic powerhouse… and for perpetuating centuries of systemic racism onto the descendants of enslaved Africans. Racism isn’t hereditary or natural, there’s no way it could still exist without a large portion of the “silent majority” supporting, teaching and passing it down to each generation since the 18th century…. But with 30+ million poor white people in America and the majority of middle class whites are closer to the poverty line than wealth, they’ve traded away the majority of the nation’s wealth to the 1% in exchange for some societal perks and a ridiculous fantasy white supremacy. It takes a tremendous amount of determination and persistence sustain 18th century ideology to the current day….it will take that same level of determination and persistence to end it. If white people think it’s uncomfortable addressing racism….imagine facing it.

    I am Irish, c.70% of the female population of Iceland has Irish DNA and 70% of the male population of Iceland has Viking DNA (west Norway to be precise). Why did this happen? Slavery, Irish women were enslaved and transported to Iceland. This is all fact. Let me be clear I am all in favour of educating children on the historical account of slavery, of the civil war, that is was wrong and that all forms of racism is wrong etc, all that makes sense to me. Also all in favour of educating people on issues like "be nice to all people be polite to all people treat all people well" no issues at all. What I am absolutely against is forcing schools in Iceland to teach their children and in particular the male white children that their society is built on enforced slavery of women backed up by male aggression and oppression. It serves no purpose, it does not help anyone it would only create anger, bitterness and resentment in both Ireland and Iceland. I would humbly submit that what is happening in the US re teaching kids to hate teaching kids to be ashamed of who and what they are is simply wrong on all counts.

Legal scholars thought it would be a good idea to examine how race impacts the criminal justice system from top to bottom. Teaching about slavery and the injustices America as a nation has committed in the K through 12 classroom that has nothing to do with critical race theory. Nothing whatsoever the people who created who develop the models to explain critical race theory they weren’t even thinking about teaching children they were trying to educate adults who were looking to become lawyers.

    Critical race theory examines social, cultural and legal issues as they relate to race and racism. America has been racist since before ever becoming America. While we have struggled to make our society less racist over the centuries, there remains vestiges of our racist past. CRT doesn't mean that all white people are overtly racist, but it does help us to think about how racism still persists in society and people, knowingly or unknowingly, willingly or unwillingly. This is merely the latest culture war for the Reich-wing is trying to gin up, making CRT the boogeyman for their flock of fascist sheep to fear. Evidently, Mr. Potato Head and Dr. Seuss couldn't gain much traction as wedge issues. Unwittingly, they are demonstrating and proving the whole point of CRT and the need for it to be studied.

Well of course you are Critical of Poor people. You think we need more of Your Education (which is strangely very selective) How do I know? There is nothing new under the sun.

Learning history of slavery and oppression has nothing to do with CRT and children do need to learn about racial and sexist oppression, but without having to label an oppressive group and an oppressed group. Children of ANY race shouldn’t need to be labeled as racist or victimized. Come on! CRT is too complex to need to be taught to children and no child of any color should be labeled in the way CRT labels.

    Generally agree, although my primary education taught that the British looked upon America and its other colonies as ways to expand their land holdings and power, and was used to exploit the indigenous peoples and their lands, and that the people in its colonized lands tended to be neglected by the British government and denied representation. As Eileen pointed out already in her reply here, it wasn't just the British who colonized America. Most of the present-day southwestern United States was Spanish colonies; we stole 1/3 of Mexico from it in the Mexican War. The Russians colonized Alaska. The French had holdings in what is now America, as well, not just in Louisiana, but along our border with Canada. The Dutch had colonies along the northeast coastline in Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey, claiming land stretching inland for a good distance into parts of eastern Pennsylvania and New York.

    What many commenters have wrong is that CRT is NOT just about knowledge. If CRT was only about introducing more Black history into schools, then I would be all for it. It truly is a shame that most of us didn’t learn about our very racialized past, apart from the civil rights movement, but CRT is not about introducing objectivity. It is expressly a subjective method, and it promotes a narrative with the hopes of implementing equitable policy. Equity can be a great thing, but if everyone is made totally equal without any room for personal responsibility or merit, our society will crumble.

    Critical Race Theory is a legal framework and philosophical theory that asserts: 1) "Race" is a social and legal construct (think One-Drop or a Black man is 3/5 a person) 2) The legal system is used to maintain White Supremacy, both through laws themselves and through the application of laws by police and courts. CRT is not taught in K-8 curriculum because it is an advanced field of study that requires an understanding of American history and law. However, high schoolers can understand the basics of CRT and should be learning about: - slavery laws, the one-drop rule, the 3/5 Supreme Court ruling, - the 13th Amendment, -Jim Crow segregation and anti-miscegenation laws, - redlining and voter suppression, - the War on Drugs, police brutality and killing, discriminatory sentencing, etc. The history of race and racism in America is a LEGAL history. CRT is something that most socially aware people already know, and it needs more informed advocates to defend it from White hysteria, rage, and disinformation.

    Okay, just read that book. I think it's not bad. Maybe the simplified terms can cause some confusion, but if you read, or know of, Toni Morrison than you could likely understand her intent wasn't racist or malicious against white people, but the idea that white is pure, clean, good...the actual color and the symbolism attached to it, not so much as a race. Whiteness refers to the symbolism of the color. Seeing white as good, black as evil and dark. Pretty good author overall trying to teach parents (not teachers) how to discuss current events on the news with their kids. I think I would have benefited from this book as a child...it shows care and understanding (racism as a choice, not an inheritance). Maybe the gun law related stuff might be the more sensitive issue...but we're not talking about that apparently.

    That's actually not true. Not to mention the NEA is endorsing CRT. The National Association for the Education of Young Children (NAEYC) has been training Teachers for years in K-12 education. NAYEC promotes CRT training and curriculum in their 'Anti-Bias Education'. Their training pushes the 'America is systemically and irredeemably racist and sexist' agenda. It argues that teachers must discriminate between White and Black students. It encourages the Marxist dichotomy of 'oppressed vs. the oppressor', and encourages teachers to promote student 'activism'. The NAEYA is being funded through House bill 226. The 'sales point' for CRT is to put good people on the defense. Those who are fine with teaching kids our history (all of it, not just the warm and fuzzy) but oppose the conclusions made in CRT are simply racists.

    This guy is a pin head. Thanks, but the kid didn’t get it. ITS NOT TAUGHT IN PUBLIC SCHOOLS! It’s for LAW STUDENTS. NEA endorsing the teaching of slavery is a far cry from law school theory being taught to grade school children. That guest needs to understand that collectivism is one of our strengths, and capitalism doesn’t say either way what ‘commodity’ is being traded. He also needs to read a book, any book, about economics, and maybe, political systems in terms of cows. ..... Communism: You have a cow. The government takes your cow, and may give you some milk. Capitalism: You have a cow. Sell some milk, buy a bull. Fascism: You have a cow. The government shoots you and takes your cow.

    The writer in the video literally defined it, and then went on to clarify why it's bad. It's pedagogy by another name. And, not that this should matter, but there are a number of black intellectuals who think it's a terrible idea as well. There is a difference between denying our racist history, and not supporting CRT. I full well recognize our discriminatory past, as well as present practices and norms of racism. I support policies that eradicate those practices, reform our police, etc. I support teaching our histories accurately (no one seems to talk about American Indian rights or histories in 2021...). But I don't support CRT. It improperly distills the complexity of a society through only the lens of race. It further entrenches identity based on racial lines as well. It tells people how they should feel, act and think about a topic. And if you don't agree you're a racist or a Nazi - as I have been so charitably described once online for simply trying to have a conversation on this issue. It's easy to call out the simpletons who don't understand policy in general for not endorsing CRT. But that's not a valid argument for those that do. You're making the assumption that the only way to be against it is to not know it. What I see is a religion by another name. Not in it's assessment of historical wrongs, but in it's prognosis and unwillingness to deal with criticism.

    Because grade school teachers don't know what Critical Race Theory (CRT) is, how can they teach it? The subject requires a sophisticated analysis of how the law affects race from many vantage points ie., voting rights & suppression, policing, incarceration, education, school finance, housing access, healthcare access & outcomes, etc. Reforming institutions, structures and systems undermining racial equity is the goal. CRT doesn't involve targeting White school children or Asians, for example, nor personalities like "Bull" Connor, Donald Trump or David Duke. So, one may ask why is CRT an issue? Let me answer it thusly: It would honor Americans to refrain from carrying water for Donald Trump and his acolytes, who are perpetrating a cynical, race-based disinformation campaign targeting Native Black Americans via Critical Race Theory, Voter Suppression and Black Lives Matter, the purposes of which are to divert attention from his vast state-federal legal troubles and fortify his base so it supports such shenanigans, to gain political power they could not otherwise with integrity obtain--which takes into consideration decreasing GOP demographics, to undermine American democracy and, many believe, instigate a race war. The breath and depth of this Trumptonian treachery is horrific for being based on lies, which many believe with cult-like devotion. But as he showed America before he became the most powerful man in the world, dude is wholly unsuited for being anything, except the perfect Russian asset. Stated differently, sociopaths are not a remedy. And the memory of Jim Jones helps prove it. With due respect. (KFB 8.24.21)

    White and black aren’t in-born things. They’re social ideas that we inherit, no different than any other beliefs or customs. Teaching how whiteness has been used, and still is used, as a way of leveraging power and dominance doesn’t reduce everyone with white skin to a simple “racist”. The tell here is that members of the group who benefit from their racial standing are the ones who outright oppose anyone else who cries out in anguish for basic equality, fairness, and justice.

Do you believe in the Marxist ideology of 'the oppressor vs. the oppressed?" And most importantly, do you acknowledge that the intent in teaching young children this ideology is borderline indoctrination, when it should be limited to more mature 'students'?
