CRITICAL RACE THEORY (CRT), SOCIAL JUSTICE, POSTMODERNISM & RACISM

It is not important for you to become an expert on these issues. The main thing to remember is the purpose of these activities and theories is to divide students and pit them against each other by various identity groups, such as sex, race, gender, religion, nationality, class, citizenship, and political affiliation, etc. In essence, students either get “victim” status or “oppressor” status.  Victimhood status is established on a point system based on how many “oppressed” boxes are checked (Intersectionality). Many words and phrases are used interchangeably. This has been a tactic of Progressives during the 20th Century and today. It is intended to confuse you. (“Equality,”  “Diversity,”  “Inclusivity,” mean the opposite of what you think they mean in CRT.)
