@@anguishingquark Thats why every liberal in this video has no idea what CRT was. We on the right do. Its democrats that have zero clue what they're talking about.
@@anguishingquark Wrong....I'm a conservative and I understand CRT with perfect clarity. So do most others. The truth of the matter is that liberals insist on remaining uninformed on a wide variety of subjects, primarily because facts interfere with their narrative. They ignore science and then have the audacity to brand anyone who disagrees with them as science deniers. Conservatives deal in facts....liberals deal in emotions.
Well if you read the actual source text from Delgado and Stefancic that is shown in the video you see that they never make any of the three claims presented to the students. They never claim that race is the most important thing about a person, that race is more important than merit for hiring, or that racism is present in every interaction. Why do conservatives always argue against straw man positions? Why would a “trustworthy” source lie to you about what crt is?
Knowing the existence of CRT to resist it is only part of it. another important thing is for people to realize that this is only part of a bigger problem thats becoming more and more prevalent in america, which is an increase in genuine racial hatred toward White people, and how much of a threat this is. not only is there CRT, but there’s also that farm bill which explicitly excludes White farmers from benefits over ‘priority groups’ (non-white farmers), or the pandemic relief bill that also puts White business owners at the end of the line. Or how the mayor of Chicago, one of the biggest major city in America, straight up refused to talk to journalists who are White, or how there are people in the US Senate (one of the HIGHEST branches of the Federal Government) who explicitly stated that they won’t vote to confirm any White nominees. Do you see where the US is headed? I’ve talked to people who’ve said that CRT is just like what Нitler believed for jеws, and at the same time they haven’t grasped the severity of the situation for White people in America. The resistance for anti-White hatred is so much less serious among conservatives & norma people than it actually should be.
Can somebody explain to me why this journalist lied that critical race theory promote "the most important thing about you is your race" This is NOT what is inside. This is from the book: "Critical race theory (CRT), intellectual movement and loosely organized framework of legal analysis based on the premise that race is not a natural, biologically grounded feature of physically distinct subgroups of human beings but a socially constructed (culturally invented) category that is used to oppress and exploit people of colour. Critical race theorists hold that the law and legal institutions in the United States are inherently racist insofar as they function to create and maintain social, economic, and political inequalities between whites and nonwhites, especially African Americans."
@@klokoloko2114 Better question...why are they pushing a THEORY as fact to our children and in the workplace? Would it have been OK a year ago if teachers and businesses pushed (what was then a theory) that COVID came from the Wuhan lab, and not from some wet market? While yes, the covid theory has come true, there is no factual basis to back up the theory that the US is inherently racist and to say it is straight up lies.
Critical race theory is a ticking time bomb. It will end in race wars. Haven’t Conservatives been saying this is what will happen. Looks like some people in places of power want this to happen. What says you democrats. Looks like we know who the real racists are. The ones pushing for this nonsense.
@@halbleavy9900 The particulars are readily available, but the bullet points are that white people are responsible for all of society's ills and should be ashamed of their whiteness, that all white people are racist whether they know it or not and that black people can't be racist, no matter how racist they act. It also helps to know that it's part of a wider Marxist doctrine. Definitely read up on it yourself and draw your own conclusions....never take anyone's word about anything.
It’s called racist, and oddly enough, it’s almost never the white person saying it is. Should tell you something about where these racial interactions actually start.

That one chick who was unsure about "Race over merit on hiring decisions" should see how she feels if that was applied to her with their surgeon. Do you want a surgeon to be a specific race, or to be the best in their field.
Or applied to a lawyer representing you, or the engineer who designed the brakes in your car or wings on your airplane, or the bricklayer that built your house, or the plumber that fitted your bathroom, or the cook at the restaurant where you eat lunch, or the ironworker who assembled that bridge you're driving on.....
That's already happening. It's called Affirmative Action. This is why we have so many people with a degree in a certain field but they can't perform the job. It's also why we have so many people working in fields that are different from what their degree is. Affirmative Action is a joke
“You should be aware of race”. Why? “I have a dream that one day my children will be judged not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character”! Race shouldn’t play a role at all.!!!
You should absolutely be AWARE of your race, for it is a key PART of your heritage, which is in turn a key PART of your identity. But race should itself not be a DIRECT part of your identity and certainly not the PRIMARY or even SINGULAR CORE of it, not to others and absolutely not to yourself. I don't know how well this analogy will work but here it goes. An identity is like concrete used to make the foundation for a house (your life), to make it you must combine several key elements (sand, gravel, cement, water) in certain proportions. And just like concrete, if you screw with those proportions the final product will be a useless mess. Example, too much sand and the concrete will be weak and unable to support the weight needed. While not enough sand will result in it the concrete being brittle and in time it will crack and break easily after the house has been built, severely damaging the house. And that is just one element, sand. An identity is far more complex and uses many more elements than concrete. So when building your identity you cannot afford to focus too much on, or neglect any one element, not if you want a strong and healthy Identity / a strong and true foundation on which to build your life.
i pretty sure the irony went over your head so I’ll point it out, you are making an argument about race not playing a role using a quote from a guy whose entire lives work was talking about race and how much it mattered in the lives of black people
@@jonathanwolfe2692 Everyone should be proud of their heritage, but that's not "race" or racial identity, it's history, language culture...and DNA is sort of less important than those other things - a by-product of being Swahili for instance is being a black African.

Critical Race Theory, as any identity politics is divisive and not about bringing us together. We’re far easier to control and manipulate when we’re divided than when we’re unified.
And yet the blacks seem to still agree with its tenets, especially the one girl who said race is definitely important and should be a factor in hiring people. Just goes to show where this garage is coming from
LOL. Have you seen the Blue eyes Brown eyes experiment video by Jane Elliott? It was done in 1968, I was very young when I watched this experiment on TV and it has stayed with me.
race goes far beyond someone's skin color. it determines many so many more body and especially facial features. the color of someone's eyes isn't nearly as important because it's only one feature. of course something that largely determines how someone looks is important for how others perceive them. denying that is ridiculous. race is a factor in every interaction between people.

It amazes me, sadly, that those who support Critical Race Theory cannot grasp the simple and obvious fact that it is, indeed, at the core of beliefs and practices of the KKK, skinheads, etc. The only difference is that the KKK, etc., used it against people of color. That's the only difference.
@@rowanaforrest9792 If you think American CRT is scary you should see Nazi CRT where the Nazi force Jews to wear the Star of David and force them paint the Star of David on there stores so the Germans will know who is a Jew or not a Jew also to know which stores or owned by Germans or Jews and there would be people from the Nazi government urging Germans to buy goods from German store owners and not form Jew store owners.

Not even close to true. Most big corporations aspire to have employees meet a basic level of expectations. They regularly hire to meet quotas, I know this from first hand experience.

You misrepresented the source material. At (0:50), the quote is saying being black matters to our society in more subtle ways. It's not saying the most important thing about you is your race. At (1:25), the quote is saying that merit isn't neutral. It's not saying that race should be the main factor on hiring decisions.
That one girl that said "Race is very important" - I wish I could tell her: It is the LEAST important thing about you and also the MOST uninteresting aspect of who you are. Don't do that to yourself. Be an individual and show the world what you can do. Please.
It depends on what she means by that. For some of us, our race is a big part of our heritage and experiences, as well as our culture. So, the importance of race in once’s identity is relative to the person. But race should not be important in how we judge the character and worth of one another because that’s when judge someone based on how they look, as opposed their character and understanding how being a member of that race has shaped their experiences

@@willpaul5202 Race is a social construct. It is does not actually exist and is just amount of melanin as you said, but the implications are real. Race is still related to culture, but ethnicity, nationally and history create variations. Sure, the color of your skin does not define you, but humanity has made it matter throughout history. Obviously, discrimination and categorizing people would exist even if we all looked exactly the same, but it has played a role in shaping people’s perceptions, but that’s on humanity. Race is not important in how we judge one another, but the creation of the concept has shaped us.

I am from an older generation and one of the crucial situations I see manifesting in our young folks today is they are easily led into group think. There are two things about older generations that I think is notable 1. Most of us were not taught to focus on what color we are. I’m white but I never dwell on it all the time. I never really thought much about looking at my skin color except during the civil rights movement and the recent race base movement being used politically in today’s time! 2. We were taught to NOT follow the crowd and be an individual thinker instead. Be unique and true to what is best for you and not to follow blindly because that’s an insult to your intelligence! I don’t let folks race bait me into going against my right to free thinking for myself! I keep hearing people say but your white how can you understand, but actually I just don’t care that I’m white and I don’t wake up every day saying “oh look I’m white let me see how that can benefit me today” I really thought we had moved out of the past and was doing so well! Blacks became Judges and Teachers and Police Officers and CEOs of companies and Business owners, etc. I wish everyone would stop obsessing over their skin color all the time and obsess over being of good character instead! STOP letting these radical activists take away our humanity towards each other that we in the Sixties and on worked so hard for!!!!!
Uh which generation would that be?? The generation led to war?? The generation that was pictured smiling with children at lynchings?? The sexual revolution?? No, no group think at all there.
@@ASmith-jn7kf You proved the point I was making! Not all of America was “lynching” people. Most Americans were fighting to free Blacks & we were SUCCESSFUL at it! Thousands suffered in the honor to fight & die to save other people! It’s NOT HELPING to keep punishing folks that have & had nothing to do with any horrors that happened in the past, over 60, even 150 years ago, but honor those who sacrificed to make it stop! We should NEVER FORGET what happened & live our lives in a way to make sure it NEVER HAPPENS again! And that means getting rid of leaders that use animosity & fear & anger of the past to continue to promote more of those horrible tactics! We currently have folks in control right now that are & have been doing those very things for years…all for power, money & VOTES! I was not part of the promotion of the “sexual revolution” because I believe mothers are the nurturing group & she was not “freed” from her psychological bondage by getting rid of her bra & becoming a CEO! Just look how that turned out! Men checked out & continue to do so at the work place & at home! Women have more burden than before & our children are the casualties. We need to teach our children how to overcome adversity & tribulations with maturity & grace so they will be alive to enjoy & prosper from the good & not just suffer from the bad. We need to come together & fight for individual freedom, free speech, life rights for ALL now because that will be the greatest sorrow if we lose those gifts. This is NOT ABOUT skin color anymore…it’s about good vs evil! And I really, with all my heart & soul believe that. Also I really do hope things go well for you & your family! You take care of yourself & like I always say, don’t sweat the small stuff because the big stuff is enough!

The biggest form of "racism" I see today is teh democrat party, and their steadfast refusal to allow school choice. A close second is the democrat/leftist policies that came with the welfare state )causing fatherlessness in many "poor" homes.
The fact that they all still agreed that race is an important, Albeit not the most important, factor in people is ridiculous and borderline racist. "Race" and "color" should NEVER matter in ANYTHING. Any separation/segregation based on race is wrong and should never be tolerated. So sick of people telling me I matter because I'm dark, but I'm not the focus because I'm not "dark enough". Tired of being told I'm not wealthy and successful because I'm not white. The fact that the color of ones skin and their political leaning are more important than intelligence and character proves that society as a whole has already fallen.
A person has no choice in their race, parents or siblings, but they DO have the choice of their behavior. I dont judge on skin color but a persons actions, a good person can have a bad day but a bad person doesnt bring good into my day.
“You should be aware of race.”…. How we start by teaching people that when you say race there is only one. Forget the color of someone’s skin and focus on the character. You would find a lot less hate in the world this way.

That's one of the big problems, critical doesn't mean what it used to mean in a quantitative sense. So when people are taught 'Critical' theories they think, oh wow! I'm being smart and rational! When in reality it's just subversive indoctrination.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character--Martin Luther King, Jr.
@@lorpawhiklson7695 He said that over 50 years ago. There have been "radical changes in the structure of our society." We elected a black president. That would've been unthinkable in MLK's time.
@@lorpawhiklson7695 Yes, radical changes in the structure of our society. And when he gave the, "I Have a Dream" speech, he acknowledged the white people who were there. MLK was not trying to make it a black society. He wanted equal treatment. For example, you murder someone, is the race of the murderer a valid consideration when sentencing that person? It should not be. If there is a trail of violence by someone that led up to a murder charge such as armed robbery, grand theft, trafficking women, domestic abuse that person would probably receive a worse sentence than say someone who get's mad, punches someone in the face, the person falls hits their head and dies. Both are murder, but there are different degrees of such instilled in law. First Degree, 2nd Degree, and so forth. Totality of the content of one's character. See how that works?
I’m a college professor… I see this thing that happens with college students. They don’t know how to say “I don’t know” and then make an ultimate decision of fact without any knowledge of it or fake knowledge of it. You were lucky to find a few really good students
@@michaellovetere8033no.. theyre thinking.. and the facts are none of what this girl said was what crt actually is.. its even cited IN THE VIDEO.. and YOURE STILL BLINDED ..the evidence is one screen.. and you listened to HER false description. you are feel with 0 thinking.
How are we all dismissing the fact that this country went through this already, just under a different name?? And we didn't like it when I was called equal opportunity! All if these kids parents grew up with "equal opportunity" in effect, and it not only did not work/help back then--we NOW know, looking back, that we were right in the end. It was a bad idea. So why try it again??
Because the sheep have very short memories and no ability to think for themselves. All the Left has done is re-wrap this twisted ideology in different wrapping paper with a new bow, and the ignorant and the foolish think it's a brand new idea.
@@QueenBB53 Equal opportunity is fine (if it is not done via discrimination). The reference here is to "reverse discrimination" which when I was young was called "affirmative action." CRT, however, doesn't think equal opportunity is enough. CRT wants equal outcomes (aka "equity"), which is an entirely different kettle of fish. The only countries that have ever achieved "equity" are the hell-hole socialist or communist regimes (i.e., North Korea, Venezuela, Cuba), where everyone is equally poor (except those few who wield the power).
To be honest, I'm really sick of hearing about RACE. Let's stop thinking about the color of each others skin, and see what the people we meet are all about. As we use to say in the 70's CAN'T WE ALL GET ALONG?
In reality, racism was not a problem until Obama made it a problem. Racism was a part of "HISTORY". People have died to make "RACISM" "HISTORY". I totally agree with you. I have three black stepchildren and a white granddaughter. Just THINKING about the bs my granddaughter will have to go thru if things don't change breaks my heart!
she uses her race as part of her identity and needs to maintain a sense of power to be happy with herself. if she said otherwise she would be taking away something that she believes makes her more important than other people. most people are at their cores very unenlightened morons who cannot process thought beyond their little egos. essentially these people are slaves
I don't understand why race is important at all. Several of them said it was important and should be a factor, but, why? I'm white, so what? I don't take pride in it, nor am I ashamed of it. It is what it is. Why are we so focused on race, other than because the media and politicians manipulate us into focusing on it? Let's take back our control!
@@g.i.r.l. when has anyone been beaten up by cops by walking alone? When has anyone been sent to prison for a speeding ticket? You presume to know a lot about me just because I'm white. Anything else you'd like to tell me about my life? Because you've been pretty far off so far. But go ahead and make assumptions about me based on my race. I can't possibly struggle because I'm white, is that it? If you look at everything through a racial lens, of course you're going to assume everything has to do with race.
@@g.i.r.l. it's amazing how eloquently you say absolutely nothing of consequence. The problem with your argument is that you have no proof of what you're saying, any of it. Beyond anomalies of "cops beating citizens up for no good reason", the majority of people who have negative police interactions do so because of their poor choices, not because of their skin color.
@@g.i.r.l. I never said it didn't exist at all, only that, by and large, they are individual cases and not something that runs rampant through society. Racists exist, but far less than you think, especially in the police force.
I like how everyone came to the comments to shout in to the void about something that is literally a Doctorate level course and isn't summed in 3 statements. Maybe take some time away from RU-vid if you read this and calm down, everything is gonna be fine. Watching video after video of confirmation bias is probably bad for you and ultimately both parties just want your money. I promise you'll feel better if you unplug for a bit.

crt is there to maintain racism, not fight it racism is at an all time low in history across the western world, yet without racism some political movements cant exist. they need racism to keep beeing a topic so they can keep their narrative
Declared illegal to teach this in UK schools last December, unless an opposing viewpoint is also explored. Also illegal to use resources from extremist groups in teaching - such as BLM.

Yeah I've been in comment sections where people criticize those against crt and say things like 'lol they're literally fighting against teaching kids to be decent human beings' and I was like "but we were already doing that. Race doesn't and shouldn't have a place in teaching children morality, because children don't think like we do. If you simply teach children to be kind and other virtues like that, then boom. Decent human being". Racism is a learned behavior, and it's literally impossible to be truly racist if you are taught actual morals and live by them. I once saw a comment that said 'if a child is old enough to experience racism, then they're old enough to learn about it'. I'm sorry, how often is a small child going to be subjected to overt racism in today's world? And they wouldn't just be learning ABOUT racism, because anyone can learn about racism. In this person's utopia, these children would be LEARNING RACISM. Also, a child is more than old enough to witness someone being shot, but that doesn't mean they're old enough to shoot a gun. Idiots.
I learned about CRT around the year 2000. I was researching Hitler and the Nazis after having run into some skinheads at my school. I wanted to know what it was they were supporting. Needless to say, the surge of support of CRT in our institutions has been very alarming to me for quite some time now.

@@fiveoneforfour Well then if it is a social construct why have we been using it for thousands of years, why hasn't it changed during those times if its just a social construct.You want to know why, cause its simple.It easier to identify different people based on race, I don;t see no reason we have to change our race as it helps give us a simple identify, and actual fact is that all of us are related biological in each way.If you take two different people with different race they both would mostly likely have a 90% genetic makeup.While I understand your point of view on social construct and how we basically all similar, we need to word race to help define us who we are.If we didn;t then what would we be without it?
Why does the quote to the Interviewee not the one on the screen? You're not saying what you are showing. Why are you deliberately lying to ppl for money?
I do agree with your statement, but sometimes you have to start small. People generally need to hear things in bite sized pieces to process things over time. It’s the reason you don’t teach math from the concept of numbers to trigonometry in a few weeks to kindergartens. No matter how smart a person is, you can only absorb so much info at one time. Especially if your challenging concepts that are being taught as fact in schools. This video is encouraging, even though the sampling is small.

Thank you for putting up CRT quotes. It’s too bad they don’t say what the interviewer was asking. I am against CRT but now I feel like I need to read all the relevant literature and not just listen to videos.
Below are the core tenets of CRT. Notice they stay away from absolutes like all, always, and never. Every questions the interviewer asked had an absolute in it. That is why many pushed back and responded with things like “well not every”. I’ll let you read the tenets for yourself. But just know that I would argue against all of them to some degree or another. The following is from Britannica.com. These “basic tenets” of CRT, according to the authors, include the following claims: (1) Race is socially constructed, not biologically natural. (2) Racism in the United States is normal, not aberrational: it is the common, ordinary experience of most people of colour. (3) Owing to what critical race theorists call “interest convergence” or “material determinism,” legal advances (or setbacks) for people of colour tend to serve the interests of dominant white groups. Thus, the racial hierarchy that characterizes American society may be unaffected or even reinforced by ostensible improvements in the legal status of oppressed or exploited people. (4) Members of minority groups periodically undergo “differential racialization,” or the attribution to them of varying sets of negative stereotypes, again depending on the needs or interests of whites. (5) According to the thesis of “intersectionality” or “antiessentialism,” no individual can be adequately identified by membership in a single group. An African American person, for example, may also identify as a woman, a lesbian, a feminist, a Christian, and so on. Finally, (6) the “voice of colour” thesis holds that people of colour are uniquely qualified to speak on behalf of other members of their group (or groups) regarding the forms and effects of racism. This consensus has led to the growth of the “legal story telling” movement, which argues that the self-expressed views of victims of racism and other forms of oppression provide essential insight into the nature of the legal system.
@@thelast1900 Do you know what a theory is? It's not what you think it is, in the context of science. But then again it's hard to argue that CRT is an actual science.
I like how this video just flagrantly misrepresents the text they are referencing. They even put it on the screen for you to see what they're doing. And their audience is so zonked-out on a media-induced persecution complex they just nod their head and say, "yes, that is the Critical Race Theory. It is the bad 🤪"
Just curious. If critical race theory is so terrible, why did you have to openly lie about the 'three critical statements' from CRT by completely misrepresenting (or misunderstanding) what the point was. You even put the quotes on the screen. And then lied about what the quote said. Why? Did you feel that you needed to be dishonest in order to make your point? 1. "The most important thing about you is your race" - The quote accompanying that did not say anything of the sort. In fact, the girl at 1:04 who said "Race is a very important thing, but it's not the only thing" summarised the quote better, even though she didn't have it to hand. 2. "Race rather than merit should be the main factor in hiring decisions" - Again, the quote said nothing like that. You were outright lying here. 3. "Racism is in every single interaction we have as Americans" - Again, not what the quote said. It said that racism is ordinary rather than unusual, not that it's in EVERY SINGLE INTERACTION. Which is exactly what the guy at 2:09 agreed with. Again, you're lying about CRT. And several of the students are agreeing with the statements that are on the screen, whilst not agreeing with your blatant misrepresentation of them. And then after lying about the statements, you lied that they were being taught to students. They aren't. The original statements may be, but definitely not you wildly dishonest representations of them. Really, if CRT were that bad, would you have to lie so brazenly about it

“There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.” maybe if we had CRT you would know more about the stance of MLK
My favourite comment from Denzel Washington when Don the Lemon was asking what should be done about racism - Denzel perfectly replies "Stop talking about it". Don the Lemon did not like that.
***Does our school district use Critical Pedagogy?*** A good question for parents to ask the school district, is whether the school use "Critical Pedagogy". k-12 teachers may not teach CRT, but use "Critical Pedagogy". The following are extracted from a k-12 education resource web site. Critical Pedagogy (CP) is not traditional critical thinking, it has very specific meaning. It is a education philosophy and teaching methods based on Critical Theory, including Critical Race Theory. Teachers that use this method will often bias the class towards an anti-status quo position instead of allowing them to decide if they agree or disagree with the situation at hand. When an individual attains the interest to find out the validity of the statements they inherently must consider themselves separate from the rest of society. The goal exceeds the desire to instill creativity and exploration by encouraging detrimental disdain for tradition, hierarchy (such as parental control over children), and self-isolation. Such a high degree of distrust in generally accepted truths will create or perpetuate conspiracy theories. Critical pedagogists selectively pick icons to interrogate and subvert: for example, Thomas Jefferson but not Martin Luther King. Rather than "liberating" student thought, teachers replace a cultural bias with their own bias. In CP practice, teacher works to lead students to question ideologies and practices considered oppressive (including those at school). After they reach the point of revelation where they begin to view their present society as deeply problematic, the next behavior encouraged is sharing this knowledge with the attempt to change the oppressive nature of the society. Political activism is the bedrock of Critical Pedagogy, just like Critical Theory, or Critical Race Theory. Using Critical Pedagogy in K-12 education, injects politics, and political activism into school. That could be a concern for many parents.

I'm white but I did the same thing. Good for us. My mind is free from all this garbage. MJ said take a look in the mirror and make a change. We find what we look for because it is all out there.
Their reactions actually prove that CRT is completely wrong, that Americans aren't racist, there is no systematic racism in America, and it is not part of every day, and all social interactions.
What a load of propaganda this video is. These statements do not describe CRT. CRT deals with systemic racism and the main goal is to abolish racism by being aware of how it still exists subtley.
I wish in ALL their videos CR would close with, "Since you don't agree with these sentiments then using a scale of 1 through 10 how likely are you to speak up against this in class if the prof starts teaching this?" I think this would REALLY make students think about the impact profs are having on them and their peers.
All three textual statements were exaggerations. I am not a prog myself. CRT is not taught within schools. CRT makes sense as a lense to view past law. Progs with humanities degrees tend to be hired as teachers bc they can't find real work with their worthless degrees. They teach the ideologies that leech out of English departments. The real solution would be to defund these departments in public colleges. If you are mad at CRT and believe it is evil, your attention should be turned to cultural Marxism which is what all three of this woman's interpretations of those quotes actually resonate with
Although I don't really agree with teaching CRT I think you totally twisted every question if you're comparing them from the quotes you added as evidence for each. None of your questions matched the evidence added.
@@frederickdouglass383 The definition I prefer: Critical race theory is an academic discipline, formulated in the 1990s, built on the intellectual framework of identity-based Marxism. Relegated for many years to universities and obscure academic journals, over the past decade it has increasingly become the default ideology in our public institutions. Promoting the idea that racism is systemic in the United States could not be further from actual truth.
@@frederickdouglass383 It is NOT an academic discipline. Reading, writing, arithmetic are disciplines. CRT is a theory. A theory is an idea. In this case a flawed fallacy. A false narrative much like the Zinn project. Bovine scatology.
@@frederickdouglass383 In order to have "systemic" racism it must be part of the system. The only "system" that exists in the United States are governmental systems. You cannot name any significant form of racism in Federal, State, County or Local governments in the last 30 years. You forget that clear back in the 80's all of those institutions actually began implementing staunch hiring quota policies in order to eliminate racism in the workplace. Neither can you identify any actual significant "racist" practices in the private sector. Coca Cola, McDonalds, Walmart, Starbucks and ALL of the major private sector corporations in the country do everything they realistically can to prevent racism. If you bring up subjects like unequal pay or working conditions you still CANNOT identify ANY long-term, coordinated form of racism. And for the record, the word "racism" was created back in 1921 to attack someone when a rational argument couldn't be made against them.
@@frederickdouglass383 So again, your theory is based on conjecture and opinion. Not actual demonstrates evidence or fact. Another misguided "feeling over fact" bovine scatology.
She is not really reading the statments. She is just speaking nonsense. People read the actual texts, they don’t actually state that. You can’t make generalized sentences on academic papers. There is so much research and hypothesis in academic writings. This is so stupid.
