"It critiques how the social construction of race and institutionalized racism perpetuate a racial caste system that relegates people of color to the bottom tiers."
Sounds pretty on point to me. Whites that don't recognize this are pretty racist to me.
You know I find it odd that even in 2017 they were calling it the Tulsa Race Riot in the news. Interesting that now everyone is calling it a massacre I wonder who "coined" the phrase/change?Lol CRT isn't about the Tulsa Race Massacre....
Anything else?
What's the point of reading books that tell you what you already know?

It would be most refreshing if we all could stop "seeing color" and only perceive others as all made in the image of God.
Yes it is.
The history of Europeans traveling the world, enslaving and conquering everything they see. How is that not relevant to why the white man dominates the world?Which really proves the point....

- Recognition of the relevance of people’s everyday lives to scholarship. This includes embracing the lived experiences of people of color, including those preserved through storytelling, and rejecting deficit-informed research that excludes the epistemologies of people of color.

You see, for many years people of color have been telling the stories of their plight in America, but some white people have denied that it happened and history books have just omitted them. When I was a child in school , children of color had one week in February of education of the accomplishments of people of color. Now it is up to the whole month of February. Have you ever wondered why it was not in the regular history books? It is because most of that history has been swept under the rug. Today it offends the delicate sensibilities of white people to know of the atrocities perpetrated on people of color.

Actually what they want is validation that something did happen when others say it didn't happen. How can you use logic to deny something like the Tulsa Race Massacre. You don't teach about it. You don't talk about it. You hide it under the rug. In other words you say people are lying when they bring it up. You invalidate a person's life experiences.There is history of the contributions of people of color to America that only came to light in this century, but it happened decades ago ago. People of all colors need to know these things because they are American history too.But ,praise God, the truth is finally being told, whether people want it to be told or not. This 107 y/o woman lived through the Tulsa race massacre. Who would tell her that it didn't happen?CRT wants you to simply accept it's claims as true because some people say it's true. They don't want people to try to figure out what is true through logic or science or even statistics... they want you to just believe something is true because someone said something is true.
I hate saying "people of color" because, frankly, it looks just like "colored people" and I think that's offensive.
So I'll just say black people....and you can include anyone you want in that.
No more wrong than a white person telling a story about something that happened. If one can be believed. so can the other.Do you think a black person can be wrong? As in.....if they tell you a story about something that happened....can they be wrong? That is, either entirely wrong about the story or partly wrong about some of the details, etc.
Can they be wrong?
In a nutshell.Is that how you see colonialism?
Who really controls the global economy? American and European bank interests. They have the money, the power, and the chief shareholders are of European decent. So yeah is controlling the flow of money on planet Earth not dominating the world? I'm talking about the 1% who own 99% of the wealth of the world.Dominates the world? Is that a serious question?
those opposed to CRT want you to simply accept it's claims as false because some people say they are flawed. They don't want people to try to figure out what is true through logic or science or even statistics... they want you to just believe something is false because someone said something is false.I don't think you understand what this section you've quoted below actually means....
First and foremost, let's point out the obvious...there's no mention of the Tulsa race riot or massacre or any specific event from history in there.
What it does state is the biggest problem that CRT advocates have....objective reality.
The people who genuinely believe in Critical Race Theory don't debate. Thet can't, because it would go poorly for them. In fact, debate is what basically killed off Critical Legal Theory, which Critical Race Theory is heavily borrowed from.
