He’s sitting there saying that it’s a disservice to not teach our children the true history of slavery, but then says it’s not necessary to teach that there were slave owners of multiple races because a majority of them were white. It just doesn’t fit the narrative that they push.
Everything should be taught. No need to sugar coat anything. The truth is the truth. Now I feel my school did a disservice by not teaching true history.
I believed the "Roots" story as a kid. That whites went to Africa in ships and ran around Africa snatching Africans out of their homes and putting them in chains and onto ships. The truth is that African tribes conquered and enslaved other Africans.. kept some, and brought others to the coastal ports and sold them. Africans created the slaves that went to the Caribbean and America. That doesn't mean whites don't have responsibility for slavery, but Africans had just as much.
Simply because that's a deflective Red herring argument, an attempt to distract young minds from the TRUTH about slavery.. ITS BRUTAL AND JUST AS SICK IF NOT MORE THAN THE HOLOCAUST 🕵🏾 That's like saying because there were a few blacks that owned slaves are just as equal to all the Auction houses & slave ships being own by blacks as well.. EVERYONE KNOWS BLACKS DIDN'T OWN ANY OF THE ABOVE MENTIONED ENTITIES 🤷🏾♂️
@@Ashbrash1998 Not according to thousands of parents at school board meetings who are reading their children’s assignments which show that white kids are being taught that they are oppressors and black kids are being taught that they cannot succeed because they will always be victims. I don’t think all those parents are lying
@@aleathacoleman6413 So it should be reinforced at school too then? If you really think that's what's happening, shouldn't schools be teaching the opposite?
I can’t believe the guy advocating for it to be taught in schools didn’t know it’s already being taught! 😮shocking! Our school districts is teaching it in the entire state
It's not, what he states it accurate. Every state post its standards online; most teachers are not even writing curriculum, It's the state that assigns these standards. All you have to do is look at them, I with California on this one. If you don't like it, home school is always an option. As an educator, I agree with him it should be taught in schools. I shouldn't have to stop my math listen to have a conversation about race, but I do. Alot of white parents are not educating their kids, that's why we are still seeing videos of college kids saying the n-word and talking about black people. If you a minority reading this, anytime white society wants to ban something, I highly recommend it for your child. Students at Havard law school created CRT FYI for a scholarship, it's been in schools since 1992 (Colleges), your believing in propaganda, and it's unfortunate that you don't see it. Why would the government want college grads to learn it, because they end up voting blue. Most professors lean toward liberalism, but I guess you're not intelligent enough to see that.
@@Trina4 actually when I was in high school my school didn't teach us anything about black history besides Martin Luther king and rosa parks we didn't learn about malcom x or how they flooded black towns with the people inside them I learned that by myself how mistreated my race was and none of the stuff hasn't changed sure it's a slight change but a lot of behaviors are tolerated while the way the person said it was slightly rude what he said holds some truths to it most people dont know their own history that's why most of us become ignorant in some parts of our lives if it was taught more maybe we can have new perspectives and treat each other better
This teacher is wrong, she is falsely talking about CRT in elementary schools when it is not in elementary schools! The male presenter is too intellectual for Kali and she tries to talk over him to cover her weak and false arguments!
@Kevin Ellsworth I think people get technical about the literal meaning of CRT. I've seen the dumbed down version in all the schools, heavily taught in middle and high school. In one elementary school last year, I did see gender theory attempts. However, as hard as the middle class white person tried, the poor, mostly Hispanic and black kids weren't having it and pretty much ran over the person's desperate efforts. No teachers or students would talk to the person outside of their program. The person was shunned. I tried to talk to the person once out of pity and quickly realized why no one spoke to the person.
@Cougar Bee no there is no "dumbed down" version, it's either CRT or it isn't. This is the Chrisopher Rufo effect... anything we don't like label it CRT or woke.
I’ll never forget how fun going to school was back in the mid 2000s and early 2010s to mid 2010s but I wonder what it’s like for the new generation of kids now in the 2020s. I’m Gen Z, by the way.
@@Vulpas Exactly! Just as blacks were the ones who sold off other blacks in Africa during the slave trade. African blacks are the ones who are among the most involved in human trafficking and slavery, today. Critical race theory completely disregards a lot of facts, historical and current!
Or how Native also owned black slaves and still have thos issues brewing these days under te one-drop rule. But yes Natives deserve a lot more than blacks as fars as asking for reparations.
So funny how racist white people white knight when they compare oppressions as a form of division-while BIPOC have a greater understanding of why racist white people are scared of us coming together. We all have a common enemy.
They talk over you like they disagree when they never heard your POV to begin with. Pro victims. *And how can you ever learn anything if you already know everything?*
I'm still trying to figure out where the make believe racial harmony came from-I hope many of these people realize that “Clueless” is a fictional movie.
Its so weird... i graduated highschool in 2004 and up until then, black and white students coexisted quite peacefully as one, but ever since the later 2010s, as CRT has slowly oozed into school environments, hostility, tension and friction have escalated quickly. Kids are out of control with fights and of course this is in the same timeframe that mass shootings have skyrocketed. The same democrats that are planting these ideological seeds of division and violence are the same democrats that are targetting the 2nd amendment. I feel that this isn't just a mere coincidence.
“Coexisted peacefully” lol maybe you should get out more and talk to older POC in their 30’s and 40’s. Just because you didn’t perceive bad behavior doesn’t mean it didn’t happen.
@@crimsonrose just speaking from my experience. We got along just fine in my school, during my time there. For me to say that isn't to dismiss others' lived experiences. But my eyes don't lie to me when I see how relations have eroded since then.
@@abelgonzales3695 hmm my Japanese friend’s little sister came home crying one day saying she wished she was white because the other kids were bullying her for being Asian. This was in Texas in 2010’s - in 2000’s, my Chinese friend went to Kentucky and one guy was so freaked out by her that he shoved himself up against the food aisle counter to walk around her in the grocery store. - 6 months ago, my colleague who is a black professor moved to Texas for a new position. Her neighbors immediately called the cops on her for looking “suspicious” in the neighborhood after she moved in. - 5 years ago some white guy while I was smoking on a sidewalk complains to his companion about “goddamn orientals smoking” - this is not racism but I’m a biologist and a post doctoral scholar literally told me “fat people shouldn’t become scientists” with zero explanation. (I am fat.) - sexist boss (another professor) 10 years ago lied to my friend about having funding the week before and offered the money to a guy in the lab, made fun of us women in the lab for doing the same things his favorite bros were doing in the lab. Similarly there was a lot of ire for James Watson when he complained about “crying women” in the lab a while back. - this isn’t in the US but my polyglot friend who lives in Berlin and speaks perfect German (often mistaken for being born there) once had a handiman (10 years ago) for her work who would speak to her slowly as if she didn’t understand Germans - 10 years ago the same Chinese friend who went to Kentucky started a job as an editor. Boss kept bringing dogs to work and “joking” constantly about how she shouldn’t eat her dogs. Eventually she quit. - went to an Asian restaurant with a different black colleague-they made us wait longer and seated a bunch of newer people before attempting to seat them - had two dudes in an elevator ask me how to say something in Chinese. I said I don’t then they started rattling off a bunch of assumed languages. Annoyed they asked “well what ARE you then” which pissed me off These are the tip of the iceberg, have many more stories and even more stories of micro aggressions. My black colleagues have complained about having very professional presentations being called “unprofessional” by our instructors for example. I had an “unprofessional” presentation compared to my friend and hers was labeled unprofessional and not mine.
@@crimsonrose Never said racism doesn’t exist. By the way have you ever seen a white person attacked merely for being white. You tend to just focus on certain races. Not me. I can see that there are bigots and racists of all colors and creeds, but choose to focus on the overwhelmingly good people out there. I’ve been screwed over by people of my own race far more than others, and it hurts just the same. I can always move to the Dominican Republic and have myself murdered there. And at least it would be by my own race and not some pesky racist white devil who chopped my head off.
@@crimsonroseyou think anyone from any race in America couldn't come up with a list of times they felt ostracized? Falsely accused? Hated on for their race/group? Been threatened or assaulted or any of your examples? You don't think white kids don't go home crying wishing they weren't white? I'm so sick of the bs.
The guy on the left's (both literally and figuratively) mentality is to make everyone around him feel bad in one of two ways- guilt or victim. One of the two
@@aleathacoleman6413 I mean come on, would you honestly tell a black and a white kid playing on the playground having fun, would you tell them that one of them is a victim and the other has privilege? Would you tell them that despite their young age?
@@conrad1478 They are telling them that and that’s why CRT has been banned in many states. It’s not the truth. It’s even in the name..”theory” not facts.
@@aleathacoleman6413 He didn't want to talk about Native Americans owning slaves or freed blacks owning slaves. He spoke truth, but was very selective. He's got an agenda and truth that gets in the way of that agenda is ignored or minimized. Half truth is a lie.
Props to the guy for keeping his composure and not getting loud or emotional as she did. He kept talking while she kept trying to rudely interrupt him which is how you’re supposed to handle people when they speak while you’re speaking. Bravo!
You people need to worry about how you are going to keep your children safe in this cesspool country. The critical race theory is the least of you people worries.
Thomas Jefferson actually wrote a condemnation of slavery in the declaration of independence, but fearing they would lose southern state support it was removed
In America we don’t have real problems (abject poverty/coup d’etat etc) so (the super rich) create some and we (poor whites and even poorer ‘others’) debate them! Do you agree with me?
Children should be given an idea of what people of colour go through. I was not taught at school that Washington held slaves. Telling kids about bias should not be about guilt anymore than teaching about social class is
@@tinathomas8593 She speaks the truth, against the mainstream narrative. They're preaching white guilt with CRT when I nor anybody else alive right now had anything to do with slavery
I used to think critical race theory was about teaching guilt. I think the problem is that some think racism is simple. It used to be. They think it is about teaching the simplistic lesson on slavery, the prime example of racism currently. They may even think about the Jim Crow laws. But what they do not understand is as more laws were passed to help blacks combat racism, more sophisticated forms of racism were introduced. So, the goal is to teach about these sophisticated forms of racism because they can be extremely subtle and perhaps even multilayered. For instance, there are certain events that take an entire generation to have enough data to uncover statistically. Critical race theory if done right, can help with the problem of equality of opportunity because we will have a better understanding of how laws and other things may be beneficial to one group and disadvantageous to another. However, due to the nature of the subject and knowledge you need to have, I think it would be better suited as a college course, perhaps even a graduate course. But how colleges are now, I have without a doubt that the radical left would skew these lessons into teaching guilt as opposed to teaching knowledge. But if done right, it will be beneficial to all groups of people.
Racism is a knife that cuts any direction it's swung and the most racist people in the world are no longer white, they're black with the race card being played ad nauseam. It causes divisiveness and resentment toward those that use it. The truth is that white people don't learn racism from their parents sitting around the family breakfast table when they're seven years old, they grow into it over many years of frustration and resentment toward an often ugly and vulgar sub-culture of victimhood. When I was in the Airborne Infantry many years ago if you didn't have your stuff together it showed instantly and your lack of preparation and maturity caused you to suffer. You quickly began to loose a critical component of being a paratrooper and that in a word is credibility. Being Airborne Infantry a no slack environment and the black guys in my platoon would just shake their heads and laugh, saying "You brought that s$^& on yourself" and they were 100% right! We called "self critiquing behavior". Personal accoutability is what its all about. Man up professor!
To me it's starting to sound religious. "racism" is being treated like some evil spirit that exists all around us and we have to constantly be thinking about it less it lead us astray. There is definitely within CRT a hyper-focus on the race of people and making assumptions about people based on race. When the ideas behind CRT are put into practice it leads to further segregation among people and more bigotry. For example, it was just proposed that medical classes be segregated by race in order to combat systemic racism. The idea of systemic racism is a CRT idea and the way to fix it that is prescribed is always more hyperfocus on what's different instead of what we have in common and segregation. The idea that is has anything to do with history or law is a trojan horse because foundational it is concerned with neither. It is simply, yet another form of Marxism but this time it's wearing blackface. I would love ACTUAL discussions about history, slavery, prejudice and law along with human rights discussion. Kids/adults usually have no clue what constitutes human rights, or discrimination or even a real understanding of slavery. Most in the US think slavery only happened here, only involved whites enslaving blacks and think when it was outlawed here then it was officially over all over the world. They have no idea of the complexities of history and they really should. I believe that would free people's minds from thinking their ancestors were the only people who were ever enslaved and that white people are an inherent danger to them. It would also free people from thinking that they come from a race of monsters who only exist to enslave black people and abuse them.
Its really not. Black people get bashed for everything. Nobody likes them but everyone wants to copy them. They been blamed shamed and humiliated. Criticized on every level. Even when they winning they criticized
What's funny (not ha ha) is the fact there is a literacy crisis & that starts at home. Ethnic Studies classes are not required-they are electives. If your child is having issues with literacy, then an elevated elective is probably not best for your child in the first place! 🤣🤣🤣
She starts to talk over him when he starts to state facts that he is not comfortable hearing. Also, she talks about other groups that had slaves when what she leaves out is out each group treated their slaves.
My stolen identity is being used here and so is my sister's!! Who I don't know where she is because someone else is using her identity that is blackmailed to.
The guy is preaching truth... but people don't wan to hear it. I've no idea what is wrong with that woman. Does she have a husband that she's trying to please? No reason for her to have lost her marbles that way.
The mainstream media are a bunch of liars pushing agendas, not news. For 3 years all we heard was Russia Russia Russia and look how that turned out. Nothing but lies and not one msm outlet apologized for getting it so wrong. They just move on to a new set of lies. Independent news sources are always the best if you really want the truth but sadly, some are so brainwashed at this point that they wouldn’t know the truth if it slapped them in the face.
No. Google Tippu tip the black slave trader, or the black queen Nigiza who sold out thousands of her own black people to slavery. Sort of like how modern day blacks in Chicago are shooting each other in gangs at epidemic rates, and no one from BLM says a word! Teaching black students that they will never be equal to a white student is racist. The focus on race gets votes. That’s it. Democrats (the slave party) want all black people in chains. Not physical ones but mental ones. They want black single mothers dependent on the government for food and housing! Oh and BLM is now bankrupt after buying multi million dollar mansions for themselves , while George Fetanyl Floyd’s family sits in the hood still!
I think he’s just being disingenuous, someone who’s obviously as educated as he is would know better. In saying that, why would a tenured professor be on Dr Phil. That’s bizarre behaviour in itself.
Complete opposite she has a chip on her shoulder and is quite bitter about teaching broad strokes of truth as she would rather highlight exceptions to fit her narrative.
The issue is, when and where will Americans learn of the African American experience in the U S, if not in schools.? We're wasting time quibbling. The info is out there but not disseminated throughout society, how else but in schools.? I've read so much on slavery in the states , quibbling about the crumbs is exactly the wrong way forward.
How about Chinese American history? How about Italian? Let's not leave out the Irish. And how about poor white share croppers? How about individuals? Are we supposed to believe that every African American has the same experience? Every white American too? Identity politics is TRASH
I had no idea J. Luke Wood was a guest on Dr. Phil. He was also a guest recently on Jennifer Hudson's show. He is currently the president at my alma mater, Sacramento State. When I was a student, Robert Nelsen was the president at that school when I attended from 2017 to 2021. He retired in 2022. I have not met either one of these guys but I did see them. I saw Luke Wood when I was a spectator at the Sac State football games last season. I did see former president Dr. Nelsen on campus. People say Dr. Phil is scripted so I am wondering if Dr. Wood was being coached to respond to things in a certain way. I'm sure he feels that racism is alive and well but did the producers instruct him to make a case for CRT? It's possible he was speaking his mind without the aid of a script however.
The foundation of CRT is that racism is systemic, and the simple fact is systemic racism was outlawed decades ago. That doesn't preclude the fact that there are individuals who are racist are operating within given systems, but in it's literal definition systemic racism simply doesn't exist. For me the literal definition of systemic racism includes written policies that are racist as a way of doing business.
Not true For example, Black women cannot wear certain ethnic hairstyles because they are considered “unprofessional”-LEGALLY. That is why there is a push for the CROWN Act to become law in all 50 states.
2:43 Why didn’t she mention that the Cherokee were also enslaved prior to the Dawes Rolls-and why didn’t she mention the Dawes Rolls? Why didn’t she mention that Cherokee Nation can’t even receive reparations until they include Black members who were taken off the original rolls? Excluding that information is beyond misleading.
They talk about racism just like black and white, and what about native people? Before the white and black people's, the principal racism in America was against native people's. So if you want to talk about history talk about everything
Just because one group believes that every other group is out for revenge, does not make it true. War and oppression are two luxuries, that humanity can no longer afford. Either we all repair the damage or our children have no future.
I was taught about the presidents that were slave owners back when I was in elementary school, so I’m not sure what he means by “why don’t we teach them about George Washington owning slaves”😂
Yeah teach all of it in PROPER context. Just not to 5th graders. I would start in 9th or 10th grade. Basic fundamentals are more important than indoctrinating children.
I know you guys have a different way of figuring out what ethnicity someone is and their is a rich culture and heritage tied to each group you grow up in if your from the USA. But yeah just on a physical looks this guy could be Danish or even French. I don't pretend to know exactly how things work in the USA. I think racism in Europe is a little different it doesn't work in the exact same way. I would love to read up about it as a topic from a European point of view.
Yeah.. im American and he looks white. There's lots of people like him. He was adopted into a well off white family.. but he's on a crusade to help Blacks and trash whites. He seems to want "hood" validation. A lot like Kaepernick.
An imperfect document written by imperfect people….. by that logic nothing that humans has done has been good. Not a single human to have ever lived was perfect except for Jesus. We are all by nature imperfect beings.
Its literally a waste of time. Im in college and i literally tune out the professor when they talk bout this. Wasting my fing money, i came here to learn how to get a job
Instead debated these white folks that know the truth but dont want to here it just calmy say over and over again if the shoe was on the other foot how would you feel.boom even if they are truthful ir not there response will let you know.
"Is the constitution racist?" *"I think it's an imperfect document written by imperfect people"* Holy copout batman. Of course it's imperfect, especially since it was written hundreds of years ago when they didn't know what the future would look like. Just answer the question
So what should we do with racism and the true history of this country??? And the educational system of this country and anyone thinks that systematic racism doesn't exist I guess you have a right to believe that.
