What is actually being taught at the graduate level? Can someone give me references? I want to be able to talk about/ debate from an informed position.
Thank you all.

(3,985 posts)I define todays RW CRT as Self-loathing Shame projected onto the others du jour
And by fostering hate for US history, the RW Psyops hopes to green light renewed racial divides and justify deplorable, violent treatment of the others Du Jour
In the end, if they win, they will turn on each other.
An epic devolution of humanity is blowing in the wind.
Fortunately some voters have woken up and smell the danger.
Speaking of woke 🤢
Woke is the antithesis of hate.
Woke is Love.
Woke is empathy, compassion, humility, politeness, peaceful, lawful, honest in all dealings, in short a good person, idea and/or policy.

I'm not a lawyer, so please correct me if I'm wrong.

(2,889 posts)critical race theory (CRT), intellectual and social movement and loosely organized framework of legal analysis based on the premise that race is not a natural, biologically grounded feature of physically distinct subgroups of human beings but a socially constructed (culturally invented) category that is used to oppress and exploit people of colour. Critical race theorists hold that racism is inherent in the law and legal institutions of the United States insofar as they function to create and maintain social, economic, and political inequalities between whites and nonwhites, especially African Americans. Critical race theorists are generally dedicated to applying their understanding of the institutional or structural nature of racism to the concrete (if distant) goal of eliminating all race-based and other unjust hierarchies.
