Critical race theory panic

[Wolverine]

I made my own way by being part of a system. Unlike you I am not delusional. But I didn't mean to upend your woeful cries of oppressed white-dom and make
you boast like Beowulf in the next sentence as I did. Please resume being aggrieved. It's more amusing.

I have made my own way in this world, you can too try it!

anti social conduct by young blacks is an underlying cause of race tensions and for that reason purposely ignored by the apologists behind CRT. This is fully BS
Do you believe what you type, because you called their attitude being a problem B.S

I said Yakuda's suggestion is fully bullshit - that CRT purposely ignores that attitude.

Sure it does!

Well tit for tat you being a mod should set the bar higher. I try not to insult !

Why should it set the bar higher? Does Damo require it of his mods? You may try not to insult, but you do, then when your hypocrisy is pointed out you come back with the lame defense that I’m a mod and I shouldn’t insult.

Keziah Ridgeway says she's the only teacher she knows in Philadelphia who teaches critical race theory in public high school -- and she teaches it in her anthropology class, as one framework among many to understand human cultures. But she also teaches African American history, and that's what she thinks the frenzy over critical race theory (CRT) is really about.

"Critical race theory is a lens, right? It's not being taught in schools," Ridgeway says. It's a theory for understanding the interaction of race and the law, and is mostly taught in graduate school, not elementary school. But conservatives are using the phrase to mean any instruction about the role of race in America, past or present.

Conservatives resist every reference to race because deep down they know they're racists.

Let me ask you as serious question, when will any "real" discussion about race in America include the behavior of blacks?

Yakuda has been banned! Happy Friday to me and to all!

Turds of a feather...

Madwitch and McSlobber both live in totally white communities yet feel qualified to speak about the projects, fucking Swillys are all the same.

Aw gosh. Poor victim. You should start a GoFundMe.

Critical race theory is an academic concept that is more than 40 years old. The core idea is that race is a social construct, and that racism is not merely the product of individual bias or prejudice, but also something embedded in legal systems and policies.

The basic tenets of critical race theory, or CRT, emerged out of a framework for legal analysis in the late 1970s and early 1980s created by legal scholars Derrick Bell, Kimberlé Crenshaw, and Richard Delgado, among others.

A good example is when, in the 1930s, government officials literally drew lines around areas deemed poor financial risks, often explicitly due to the racial composition of inhabitants. Banks subsequently refused to offer mortgages to Black people in those areas.

You're jealous of Lebron James.

Yakuda is currently banned, but I wanted to second your statement. Lebron James's rock hard body and dick down to his knees with millions in the bank and international popularity really bothers that poster.

As a white man I think I am qualified to channel the hindquarters of my kind. See what is going on here is not oppression in any real sense,
it's they are weary of hearing others complain about their real oppression. They are just tired of hearing it. They don't want to hear any more about
black and brown people having any troubles in any way. Because their toaster burned out or their garage door opener is unbalanced and wobbles.
Stop getting on their nerves about black people not have jobs or food or being beaten here and there by cops. "It's fucking annoying!"
So it feels as close to persecution as wolverine is likely to get. The stories of oppression have become oppressive.

Shit, that was well put. The theme of the white man's reaction to a discussion about American race relations is to "one up". "Black people are still slaves in Africa." "Gay people get stoned to death in the Middle East." "I'm expected to check my privilege, which is way more oppressive than whatever Blacks went through in the 1950s." They can't be bothered with reality because reality is a bitch. They know there's a problem, but they don't want to carve out the capital to address the problem. And in this way, they make it worse.

The engineered conservative panic over critical race theory, explained


In this bastardized telling, CRT is whatever Republicans want it to be; it comes in many guises. "Black Lives Matter" is one name for CRT. "Social justice" is another. "Identity," yet another. "Reparations." "Ally-ship." "Diversity."

what CRT is, or isn't, is to miss the more pressing concern: Why have Republicans latched onto a decades-old academic term?
" 'Strung together, the phrase "critical race theory" connotes hostile, academic, divisive, race-obsessed, poisonous, elitist, anti-American,' " explained Christopher F. Rufo, one of the conservative activists who -- with the help of Fox News, a network that's become its own language -- engineered the panic over CRT.


Because so many Americans don't know what CRT is, it's the perfect tool for scaring White conservative voters with made-up problems -- for mobilizing them against the racial awakening of the past year.

Blah blah blah we could have better discussion if it weren't for insults!

In most ppl it's a lack of empathy, ability to see things through other's eyes. They are simply incapable of "walking a mile in another man's shoes."

Critical Race Theory is a DEBATE SUBJECT used by Harvard Law School where it was originated to be exactly that- It asks the question to the law student- DOES SYSTEMATIC RACISM EXIST IN AMERICAN HISTORY NOW- THEN and WHEN- OR NEVER?" The student debates the question in class to learn the art of DEBATE!

I remember when I took a DRAMA class in High School, and along with other theories and news events we used as debate topics, we used the current debate question of "Should the military withdraw from Vietnam" to debate in class as a debate subject.

THE TRUMPARDS ARE TRYING TO USE THE HARVARD LAW SCHOOL DEBATE SUBJECT as some kind of POLITICAL WEAPON making wild claims that it is taught in Public schools as if to say that public schools are wrong for AMERICA by teaching students racism- SO TAKE YOUR WHITE CHILDREN AND PUT THEM IN ALL WHITE PRIVATE SCHOOLS!

THIS IS POLITICS AS USUAL FOR REPUBLICANS AND THE TRUMPTARDS ARE LYING ABOUT WHAT CRT EVEN IS!

THEY HAVE EXPLOITED AND MORPHED CRT INTO A CONSPIRACY THEORY TO FIRE UP RACIAL HATRED AMONGST TRUMP'S MOST HATEFUL CULT BASE OF RACISTS!

NEXT BAT-SHIT-CRAZY CONSPIRACY THEORY PLEASE!

I INTEND TO WIN THE INTERNET TODAY BY JUST TELLING THE TRUTH ABOUT TRUMP AND HIS TRUMPTARDS HATRED EXPRESSED TOWARDS OTHERS!

 

[martin]

Sure it does!

That is outright stupidity.

You haven't read anything about CRT, have you, other than what you may have found on right wing blogs and websites? You fit with our whole phalanx of right wingers. Like products from a clone machine straight from the assembly line.

 

[Geeko Sportivo]

As soon as people prove courageous enough to allow the discussion to include the behavior of Whites.

MEANWHILE- WHILE SPEAKING OF THE BEHAVIORS OF WHITE TRUMPTARDS.......

Pictures are worth 1,000 words!

Which is foul. I spend minutes every day doing things I don't need to do. I keep my eyes open and look around. When someone needs help I provide it. So for some old white people to register an anonymous internet screen name and then tell any minority that they should feel lucky to live in this godforsaken country is beyond acceptance. I'm not sure if my parents taught me empathy or if it was natural to me, but there is no excuse -- except being an unmitigated, irredeemable asshole -- for not having it.
