No more wrong than a white person telling a story about something that happened. If one can be believed. so can the other.
certainly not through logic, science or statisticsNah...I came to that conclusion on my own.

If so then one would expect you to have some sort of understanding of CRTNah, I read about what CRT was from the people who created it.

.@ana the Ist has a point, the founder left so much wriggle room into what CRT encompasses, that it becomes a “I-know-it-when-I-see-it”, catch-all for whatever falls under the CRT lens.And I do...I linked and quoted it already, but I can do it again if you like.
Very much so... It should not be that way, but sadly it is.
Well let's suppose that a white man and black man tell different stories about the same event...
How do you figure out who is telling the truth?
A very good article.... Sad that the popular Christian printers were too WOKE to print this book! God Bless SALEM BOOKS for having the courage to print it! I don't have time to read many books, but this is one I'd really like to make time to read ~ Fault Lines: The Social Justice Movement and Evangelicalism's Looming Catastrophe.

Obviously everyone doesn't know the TRUTH about CRT or there wouldn't be this huge debate and divide about it. The more we understand it, the better we can help those who are deceived by it, to get their eyes open.
So you think the conversation about Critical Race Theory is divisive?
You’re right. It shouldn’t be divisive. Unfortunately, many conservative Christians seem hell bent on erecting double standards to reject it for no other reason that I can see other than the fact that it’s associated with liberals.
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.
Simply teaching about things like the Tulsa race massacre is a significant shift from how history has been taught for the last 100 years.
Teaching kids about how that history was systematically not taught is more like CRT.
Why are you so fixated on Tulsa? We all learned about the slave trade, how slaves were treated. We all learned about Jim Crow and how blacks were treated then. We all learned about the hangings and the crosses burned in people yards. We all learned about the KKK and the segregation blacks were forced to endure.
It's not like history classes just pretended this stuff never happened. At least not in the schools I attended. And not in the schools my kids attended.
You make it sound like History teachers only taught that white people were wonderful and blacks had no problems. Where on earth did you go to school?
This is what CRT does. Seeks to try and convince people that whites are horrible and don't want anyone to know anything about black people cause all white people are a bunch of racists.
Race and racism do divide people and CRT rightly points out that this is the problemCRT is divisive. That's the whole point of it. It seems to divide people by race. Pointing out the truth of it is a good thing.
when?We reject it because it's a divisive ideology that sets out to pit one race against another and teach one race they are bad because of the color of their skin.
We used to be against that sort of thing.
