Clarence Page: Who’s afraid of critical race theory? Those who don’t know what it is

Democrats try to sugarcoat racist CRT foolishness, but it still stinks like the horse crap that it is. There is no 'white worship' and 'white privilege' problem in America except in the minds of the deluded who have been badly brainwashed by wicked democrats for unjustifiable political advantage.

I don't think most right-wingers know what it is. They just know FOX tells them they should be outraged.

Critical race theory is a lucrative obsession for Republicans because the party is 'offended by the political focus on racism and racial justice'


Coverage of critical race theory dominates Fox News coverage across daytime, primetime, and online.

"Often compared by critics to actual racism, CRT is a school of thought that generally focuses on how power structures and institutions impact racial minorities," an explainer post reads on the Fox News website.

Fox News hosts often depict things like the "1619 Project" as having a vast influence, or white children being explicitly told they're racist when the segments are usually based solely on local news reports or aggrieved parents.

Wokism, like Marxism, is just another stupid lying leftist ideology used by anti-Christian thugs to force atheistic depravity on societies that have historically thanked God for His blessings instead of looking to government fascists to give direction, instruction, and mandates.

What's an "anti-Christian thug?"

“Critical race theory,” or CRT, has become a trigger term for politicians, activists and media voices, particularly on the right wing where it’s competing with “cancel culture” on the hit parade of things we are all supposed to be angry about or afraid of — or both.

But the political allure of the term is understandable, considering how often it has been appearing in the fevered narratives of conservative media and Red State politicians. Texas, Tennessee, Oklahoma, Idaho, Arkansas and Arizona have either passed or are working on bills that would drop CRT or anything that looks like it from public schools curricula.

That’s a lot of agitation over an esoteric school of thought found mostly in graduate schools and law schools.

CRT has emerged gradually since the 1970s as an academic movement of civil rights scholars and activists to challenge mainstream liberal approaches to racial justice.

Among other pioneers of the CRT movement, legal scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw has called it an evolving practice that questions how race, as a social construct, perpetuates a caste system that relegates people of color to the bottom tiers.
CRT is not education it is indoctrination.

That's one of the dumbest things I've ever seen you write. I know you are outraged because of what the mockingbird media says/writes, but conservatives are known for thinking, not the emotional reactions the left indulges in. And in case you haven't noticed, Fox viewership has dropped considerably. That didn't make conservatism go away. But what is the use of logic on leftist minds?

I don't care if the left wants to introduce their novel theory to the public as long as they don't stupidly and wickedly claim whites are racists and blacks are not.
How are they going to do that when crt is the idea that whites have to be racists and blacks can't be racist?

Yeah, what do locals and parents know about what is being taught to their kids? A very dumb assertion, anna. Your assertions can't get much dumber than that.

Someone who belittles the Judeo/Christian God and commits violence as though to say 'God be damned' for opposing it.

Except that's not happening. They may be belittling Christians for being sucked in by conspiracies, fake news, fear-mongering and race-baiting, but that's not belittling God. Nor is it committing violence. You're stacking up piles of straw men all over the place.

It's a struggle for how history should be taught to the next generation.
Do we teach the evils of slavery, or do we teach the sacrifices made to end it?

"or?" Why "or?"

It's a "struggle" by white Christian conservatives to maintain control of the narrative, more than anything.

"or?" Why "or?"
Because a lesson plan has to have a focus. And by focusing on one aspect you are of necessity focusing away from another aspect.

Which aspect of slavery do you focus on?
The evils of the practice?
Or the sacrifices made to end it?
It's a "struggle" by white Christian conservatives to maintain control of the narrative, more than anything.
It is indeed.

And that's because any narrative that the left comes up with is inevitably retarded.

I don't want the next generation of Americans to be taught retarded leftist nonsense.
