    Funny that you would say that on a thread in which the OP has all the data any reasonable person (I'm obviously not referring to you) would need to understand the point. You.... well you'll just force yourself to believe that it's not there. That's easier for you than to accept facts that challenge the racial aspects of your political ideology.

    No! You SAID "...you are proclaiming with unquestionable certainty blacks dont commit more robberies or murder..."

    QUOTE where I said "with unquestionable certainty" that blacks don't commit more robberies or murder. Or retract!

    There is no shame in retracting. But there is shame in doubling down on a claim you know is FALSE.

    An accurate paraphrase of your position.

    Nope. The difference is between research that showed internal characteristics of Black community life created bad outcomes, as opposed to claims that those bad outcomes were produced by outside forces via mechanisms never really identified.

    I dont believe anyone was attributing differences to genetics. And if Black women are less likely to get married and more likely to become single mothers with no father in the house to support them, CRT simply defines this disparity as institutional racism. It is not the consequence of institutional racism.

    WTF? How is "unquestionable certainty " a paraphrase of anything whatsoever I have said?

    If you have any expectation of being taken seriously in this forum, you need to act like a serious poster. Start by retracting your false statement!

    He uses a scattergun approach, hoping to overwhelm the opposition into frustrated silence when in truth has has NOTHING and is defending a dead horse.

    And what created those "internal characteristics" within the black community?

    The Blacks themselves for the most part, combining their cultural heritage and historical experiences, just like every other identifiable group.

    Then what are they attributing it to? What are YOU attributing those differences to?

    What is it a consequence of? You discarded genetics and you discarded institutional racism... so what is it then?

    "Historical experiences"? Oh.... you mean like the institution of slavery and Jim Crow institutions and the culture of anti-black sentiment that followed and institutional racism that those left behind?

    I'm not surprised in the least that the OP author skipped right over your detailed answer to his question of....'First of all, what does CRT not teach? Everything you listed as being a part of the Democrat's race baiting-white hating agenda is on full display today, whether its being taught via CRT or being played out in blue city streets today after the death of the black lifelong criminal and dope addict George Floyd. One doesn't have to peal too much skin off of the liberal media or off of the dem leadership roles to find them playing these divisive racist games among the American people.

    Still an accurate statement. Labeling my assertion that blacks commit more violent crime as "ludicrous" is an assertion that they do not.

    In response to the title of the OP, I'll just leave the author with this in-depth review of various schools teaching their form of CRT. And no, there are no subjects (just yet) from our schools that are listed as CRT 101, like say a course in Economics 101, but since the OP wanted to know what CRT is-- giving him this link to read should answer that question quite thoroughly, and also make him aware that these forms of CRT are definitely being taught in schools across America.

    No! It's an assertion that there is no evidence because such evidence is not even POSSIBLE to obtain either way. YOU claimed with "unquestionable certainty" that white people commit more crimes, and then you were unable to show any evidence whatsoever to support your claim.

    Read my sig! I don't think as loosely as you do. I say what I mean, and I mean what I say. DO NOT add or remove words from what I say. Especially when you add "unquestionable certainty " to something YOU made up.

    Now... retract! Or don't retract if you have no expectation of being taken seriously.

    And what do those decisions have to do with the color of their skin?

    You have tied yourself in a knot here. I don't think you'll ever get out of it unless you shed the white supremacist propaganda that you have been exposed to... probably for years. Mind you...I'm not saying you're a white supremacist. I'm only making you aware that you are repeating their propaganda. And this is the reason why you are unable to come up with anything even resembling a rational answer.

    A drive by. how novel... The FBI statistics whether you like them, or not, do indicate who commits these crimes, by race, and frequency. When you assert the baseless toss you have, it doesn't take much to put you back in your box. If you have some citation that you can provide that disputes, or otherwise has a contention with the FBI statistics, feel free to bring it to the party.

    There is an abundance of evidence. Arrest statistics, conviction statistics and victim surveys ALL indicate blacks commit most murders and robberies. You dont have a shred of evidence indicating that they do not.

    Probably nothing whatsoever.

    We can see who is tying themselves into knots.

    "Anti-Racism" is a pernicious, racist doctrine that damages everything it touches.
    The Reality of 'Anti-Racism' Across America

    Leighton Woodhouse, Substack

    The dogma of “anti-racism” began with an incontrovertible reality: For centuries, black Americans have been the victims of structural and often violent discrimination — slavery, Jim Crow, redlining, and attitudes and norms that, to this day, exacerbate poverty and racial disparity. Where anti-racism made its radical departure was in its view about how to fix this knotty problem.

    The proposed solution was no longer what Martin Luther King and Thurgood Marshall taught: that all human beings are created equal and therefore any kind of discrimination is evil. Instead, it was, explicitly, to embrace discrimination, but this time as a tool of “equity.” In practice, this meant racial discrimination against white and Asian people.

    This vision of anti-racism, as imagined by Ibram X. Kendi and others, is no longer confined to universities and academic journals. It has long since escaped the confines of the quad and has seeped into so many corners of American life. And rather than eradicating racism, it has re-racialized the people and the places it has touched. . . .

    And yet, you are unable to produce any. Only that they are arrested (and hence convicted) more often. Which was already addressed on the OP.

    But all this is moot if you don't show us a quote supporting your claim that I said black people commit more crimes, or retract, It's nothing personal. It's just very very difficult to take you seriously if you are just going to fabricate claims like those, and then not support them with facts, quotes and references or admit that you were wrong.
