your self proclaimed wins are as big a joke as the other crap you post. Your posts are among the most lame bits of bullshit on this board-you are continually given truth and it never sticks. CRT is nothing more than revisionist racist crap designed to make excuses while blaming whites for everything from high rates of black crime to the fact that 75% of black children are born out of wedlock-which in turn leads to high rates of crime, educational failures and social pathologies.first off, you have no, none, ZERO reference to what Broder said.....and I will never depend upon your word for anything.....which is why you lose every debate we have.....you do not back up your arguments. AND AGAIN, at the end, Broder was not a "moderate", neocon ass kissers are not moderate in any stretch of the term. If you want to argue he thought "the left" wanted culture wars, it more than proves he wasn't a "moderate". We know who strives to foment culture wars.
Now I will tie this into the topic......CRT is an explanation of how and why we have huge disparities. It is not a cause of the disparities.....and the right wingers like yourself that get themselves fired up over this are simply looking for a way to excuse our history. We in AZ saw this same thing play out with Hispanic history being temporarily banned in Pinal county. It didn't work, the courts overturned what the state ED board tried to do.
No Broder link? Check.your self proclaimed wins are as big a joke as the other crap you post.

30+ years agoNo Broder link? Check.
No citation of CRT? Check.
Fomenting the usual culture war/denial of racism, ala W F Buckley, our favorite crypto-fascist?
CHECK!
You memorized it......from SOMEWHERE...at SOME POINT IN TIME. Am I supposed bear the burden of finding where you read it?30+ years ago
"for"?Crypto fascist for Buckley? you seriously need some more truth.
Nah, its more like-The way I understand CRT goes something like this particular example: blacks were excluded de facto from the GI Bill, something that helped create/strengthen the US middle class. That exclusion meant a lack of accumulated wealth that was passed on to heirs and has an effect on our lives today. Thus in this instance, racism had a lasting effect. There are other historical examples I imagine scholars might offer. None of this says that all whites are racist, or any of the other things some folks are freaking out over.
Unless an 8 y/o is in law School CRT does not affect public school students.
Nah.Nah, Critical legal studies morphed into Critical Race Theory back in the 80s and went into all of academia.
CRT is based on Critical Theory, which is Marxist doctrine based on more then just race. The CCP uses it everyday, and used it exactly as the Democrats are using it now, only they did it by class of people instead of race.Once again, a YouTube Source I find of interest bringing up a topic of valid discussion.
This young psychologist (and member of a knitting society, who knew that was political?) has put forward an interesting definition of Critical Race Theory.
I post the video, but will also post the Definition below it for discussion purposes:
Here is her definition:
"1. Critical Race Theory is an Ideology started in academia in the 1970's that says racism exists everywhere - in every person and system - and the job of the critical theorist is to assess HOW (not if) racism occurred in any circumstance. Racism is always ASSUMED to have occurred.
2. Another way to think of critical race theory is this: it's the opposite of what Martin Luther King preached. It is the idea that we should judge people on the basis of their race, that race is the only thing that matters about them, not the content of their character."
She goes on to explain how this is problematic as if one starts with a conclusion that racism has occurred and one work's their way back from that initial conclusion, that is confirmation bias in action. You'll only look for information that supports your conclusion.
Worse, you will dismiss any information that does not conform to your expectations. You will look until you find something that confirms your expectations, and disparage anyone who does not agree/conform with the conclusion.
The poll question is:
Do you agree with this definition, and analysis:
Yes.
No.
Other, explain.

Page 1? How many pages did you write?Yes. I point this out on page 1, in post #24.

yep. Any division they can exploit, will be exploited to bring about the revolution against capitalism.CRT is based on Critical Theory, which is Marxist doctrine based on more then just race.

It's a theory, and presumably the guy you quote has an explanation for why he calls it that, and I doubt he posits racism as the sole reason blacks don't do as well as whites. Fact is, as I pointed out, that racially based policies from generations ago can have effects that last to and explain current disparities. Slavery, lynchings, segregation are gone, but their effects linger and are even renewed a bit in the current massive attempts to limit voting.Nah, its more like-
"Standardized tests have become the most effective racist weapon" ... Ibram X. Kendi
Solely because blacks dont do as well.
vaush is grossYou just made a 'Nuh-uh!' argument. Very lame. Let me know if you ever have anything substantive to contribute to the conversation.
It's a theory, and presumably the guy you quote has an explanation for why he calls it that, and I doubt he posits racism as the sole reason blacks don't do as well as whites.
So for example, why do *you* think blacks don't do as well on standardized tests?
So what?If I recall, that woman is a psychologist who teaches workers to be more subservient to their corporate overlords.
Yup:
And those reasons are?Yeah.
"When I See Racial Disparities, I See Racism" Kendi
Probably the same reason whites dont do as well on average as Asians
And those reasons are?
But I still don't get your point about the "Kendi" statement. It states a point that is defensible. If, for example, to answer the question I posed, Asians do better - much as it used to be said of Jews (as opposed to Italians) - because parents of those ethnicities put a premium on education more than others. That has complex cultural factors as sources, some of which are tied to race. If you were told that the only path to success was as "hewers of wood and drawers of water," to use the biblical phrase applied to some groups, if that is what everybody in the neighborhood is doing, then your ambition and success may be limited.
Italian friend of mine from the old neighborhood in NYC said his dad's advice in the 1950s was "Go to school. That's what the Jews are doing."
So both examples you cite (income, number of parents) are economic effects, primarily....so it is not "culture" to blame, but economics, ie poverty.Asians have higher intelligence when measured by IQ tests, compared to whites. And I dont doubt that black American culture, as opposed to biological differences, is responsible for the differences. Recall reading a study on the disparity between blacks and whites in HS graduation. Both within individual schools and more so across the whole population. When they control for income, some of the disparity disappears. when they controlled for the presence of the mother and father in the home, most all of the disparity disappears when comparing whites with their parents in the home to blacks with their parents in the home.
An economic effect of the culture.So both examples you cite (income, number of parents) are economic effects, primarily....so it is not "culture" to blame, but economics, ie poverty.
I've studied macroecon some, elaborate on how black culture causes blacks, who have equal qualifications/education, to earn less than other "cultures" in the US......and please cite references.An economic effect of the culture.

C. Publicly (through existing media) convey its support for the accurate and honest teaching of social studies topics, including truthful and age-appropriate accountings of unpleasant aspects of American history, such as slavery, and the oppression and discrimination of Indigenous, Black, Brown, and other peoples of color, as well as the continued impact this history has on our current society. The Association will further convey that in teaching these topics, it is reasonable and appropriate for curriculum to be informed by academic frameworks for understanding and interpreting the impact of the past on current society, including critical race theory.A. Share and publicize, through existing channels, information already available on critical race theory (CRT) — what it is and what it is not; have a team of staffers for members who want to learn more and fight back against anti-CRT rhetoric; and share information with other NEA members as well as their community members.
