    This is another urban myth.

    You should educate yourself:

    You rightwingers are trying to rewrite history with fascists on the left.

    Absurd. Black people are stuck in inner cities where white people played Jim Crow 100 years ago (whites moved to the suburbs) and are voting out statues of Jeff Davis, Bobby Lee, etc. If you were black, would you want a statue of Nathan Bedford Forrest in your town?
    Poor kids need more money spent on them, ceteris paribus. Overall, inner city schools in America still have less money spent on them, even ignoring the greater need. Poor white kids are screwed, too.

    There are plenty of serious studies of education spending. Google the topic and stay away from both left and right propaganda.

    No, it is racist because it identifies systemic racism specifically and exclusively by whites, and racist victimization specifically and exclusively of non-whites, and especially of blacks.

    Before that it was "Cultural Marxism"

    Really, the right needs better sources than the movie "Hail Caesar"

    It doesn't deny black racism. It's Marxist.

    Everything doesn't have to have a complete rundown of all racism. Would a book about black racism have of necessity a whole section on white racism? I don't think so.

    Those promulgating CRT aren't analyzing the impact of black racism on other races. It doesn't mean they're racist.

    When I was teaching history, we'd take a good look at racism. We made the most progress at getting a handle on racism when students concluded every race is racist at times and especially in situations where the race has an advantage. Once no one could lay claim to the high road, we made progress.

    I don't know if this is a meaningful or accurate observation.

    There needs to be more teachers out there like you that don't try and twist student's brains to conform to a political agenda. Much respect!

    Sure it does. Look at Esau's nonsense in this thread.
    And racist.
    The point is, CRT is not about racism or race. It's simply demonization of whites.
    The fact that they deny it has ever happened, or is even possible, means they're racist.
    It's racist even to think that a race is racist. Individuals and ideologies can be racist, but not races. That is why CRT is racist.

    It's the uniforms. I'm serious. Most militaries go out of their way to be bland. Nazis were designed by Hugo Boss.

    if you watched that video, and did not see racism in his words and actions, then do not know what to say

    We need to get a handle on immigration, legal and illegal. We should be looking for the best immigrants we can get from all over the world, not just take who shows up at our border.

    Stop people from running the border? Yes. Stop people overstaying visas? Yes. Both.

    Why on earth do we keep immigrants who break our laws? We have to be nuts.

    My point is that people see others as racist, not members of their own race. Racism knows no race.
    In your first sentence, you identified why CRT isn't itself racist.

    Systemic racism exists, but CRT uses Marxist analysis to suggest we can't rid ourselves of racism as long as we have a free enterprise economy.

    But that's just false. I readily admit that many members of my own race are racist. Some even admit it. I have even noticed it in myself, much as it troubles me.
    False. CRT is an ideology, not a race, and ideologies can be racist.
    If you are referring to institutionalized or legally mandated racism, yes, it does; but these days it is as often directed against whites as other races.
    Well, we certainly do not now have a free enterprise or free market economy, and never have. Marxist analysis says we can't eliminate racism in a capitalist economy. CRT says we can't eliminate racism as long as white people are around.

    The "problematic" immigrants who show up at the border are almost always from countries that the USA has turned into $#!+-holes by overthrowing their democratically elected governments to serve US corporate interests, manipulating or forcing them into US$-denominated debt to get control of their resources and infrastructure, and/or corrupting them by prosecuting its evil and insane War on Drugs. See "Superimperialism" by Michael Hudson and "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" by John Perkins. It's like you torpedoed their ship, and now you stop them from even getting into the lifeboats.

    The dazzling brilliance of European civilization is quite astonishing when you think of it.

    It seems churlish to focus on minor peccadilloes.

    For Shakespeare, quoting passages from The Tempest, MacBeth, and other Shakespearan plays is a must for English. done

    For Sir Issaac Newton, Neils Bohr, Werner Heisenberg, and Edward Jenner, that would be in science class, mostly physics, which should be required in high school and not an elective

    Plato and Pythagoras are found in Philosophy class, and that is an elective in high school

    Charles Darwin should be mentioned and studied in biology, assuming the New Earth Creationists don't get in the way.

    St. John Chrysostom, should be in the world history class, another requirement for high school IMO. I think it is an elective now in most high schools.

    Louis Pasteur should be chemistry based on his accomplishments in that field. Chemistry, along with Biology and Physics, should all be required courses for high school.

    Ludwig Von Beethoven, along with Bach, Mozart, Chopin, and others is in music appreciation class, an elective in high school.

    Howard Carter is hard to put. He is an archeologist and Egyptologist, which is science, not history.

    Kurt Kodel could be in math class, mostly in linear calculus.

    Henry Morten Stanley could be in history. He is an explorer, and most likely world history,.

    If his words were racist, you would have already quoted the racist words.

    his words and actions in total were racist and I gave the video, if you can't see it, that is on you... not me

    the judge was attacking the white parents because their little child feared their black friends after these black men did this.... and that was the judge's reaction...
