Refreshing...If There Were Only More Black Leaders Like This One...

Well it's not really "critical" nor is it really a "theory".

It is about race though.

Well it is critical of all white people.

 

[Ana the Ist]

That is your assumption

Nah...words have meanings. I suppose that you could say it's "critical" of a particular race and it's a "theory" in the broadest sense that it explains something.

But I think "racist worldview" would be a better description.

In nearly any city are certain parts of town where “people who don’t belong there” shouldn’t expect to venture at night. Or expect an adventure!

We kind of all know WHO ought to be where at 2am and that isn’t right.

That's not a racial issue.

 

[SilverBear]

I don't get your point. What's that got to do with anything. If they were the ones to sue him or they and get him in trouble they targeted him. They could have left him alone.

why should they accept being discriminated against?

 

[SilverBear]

The law is wrong.

the law that says everyone is equal is wrong?

 

[SilverBear]

You said CRT, you didn't say racism. Two different things. We talked about racism of the past while I was in school. We didn't have CRT hogwash shoved down our throats.

the foundational idea of CRT is racism exists.

so again you have yet to demonstrate how to teach about things like segregation and Jim Crow without bringing up racism

 

[Pommer]

That's not a racial issue.

You’re not The Arbiter of what constitutes racism.

 

[SummerMadness]

You’re not The Arbiter of what constitutes racism.

I love how the people that are not the target of racism always want to tell you what racism is. It's a very paternalistic attitude arguing that your voice does not count. It's only racism when they see it as racism; it's akin to men telling women what sexual harassment is.

 

[Ana the Ist]

You’re not The Arbiter of what constitutes racism.

It's a fact.

There's multiple times throughout history where the "crime ridden neighborhoods" were white.

 

[rjs330]

why should they accept being discriminated against?

So they did target him.

 

[rjs330]

the law that says everyone is equal is wrong?

A law that discriminates against people and removes their constitution rights is wrong.

 

[SilverBear]

So they did target him.

so when the KKK burns a cross in someone's yard and homeowner calls the police that home owner is targeting the KKK?

 

[rjs330]

the foundational idea of CRT is racism exists.

so again you have yet to demonstrate how to teach about things like segregation and Jim Crow without bringing up racism

No that's not the foundation of CRT. That's only one part of it. We don't need CRT to tell us racism exists. What are the tenants if CRT? All of them. Is it only "racism exists?"

 

[rjs330]

the foundational idea of CRT is racism exists.

Once again you NEVER said anything about just bringing up racism. You said you have to teach CRT. Two different things. CRT is MUCH more than racism exists. But you know that. So there is no point in further discussion unless you finally admit that CRT is NOT just "racism exists". We learned this in school for DECADES without CRT.

 

[rjs330]

so when the KKK burns a cross in someone's yard and homeowner calls the police that home owner is targeting the KKK?

Still not the same thing. Keep trying though.

 

[Ana the Ist]

the foundational idea of CRT is racism exists.

And how does CRT define racism?

 

[SilverBear]

Once again you NEVER said anything about just bringing up racism. You said you have to teach CRT. Two different things. CRT is MUCH more than racism exists. But you know that. So there is no point in further discussion unless you finally admit that CRT is NOT just "racism exists". We learned this in school for DECADES without CRT.

again...go ahead and demonstrate

 

[SilverBear]

Still not the same thing. Keep trying though.

it is the same assertion that the victim of a crime is somehow targeting the perpetrator

 

[rjs330]

again...go ahead and demonstrate

I just did.
