But CRT doesn't exist.....But somehow it should influence medical treatment?

[Sknyluv]

@e7alr

So you all have evolved from it doesn’t exist to its nothing to question or be concerned about.

No. That FoxNews can make such a statement with a straight face.

@e7alr

Especially this one:

Aletha Maybank, MD, MPH recently joined the American Medical Association (AMA) in April 2019 as their inaugural Chief Health Equity Officer and Group Vice President. Her role is to embed health equity in all the work of the AMA and to launch a Health Equity Center.

So what?

Are the thought police going to come get me?

When I read the CRT moral panic from the right today (and all the interrelated elements related to race), it’s largely indistinguishable (rhetorically) from the conservative response (i.e., conservatives in both parties) to the Civil Rights Movement 55-50 years ago: red-bait (e.g., the conflation of “integration” with “communization,” etc.); crap on about federal tyranny; inveigh against egg-headed intellectuals, communist judges, leftist social engineers, and the liberal media.

@e7alr

Its advocates spread it to the point that the general public became aware, took a close look at its specifics and have found its positions offensive and racist.

Aware is the wrong word here. Angry would work better. FoxNews, CNN, MSNBC, Breibart aren’t in the “awareness” business.

@e7alr

Yes we are. CRT is the current program being used to sow the conflict among the population necessary to ignite Marx’s violent revolution in a society.

Damn.

RW media/pundits truly knows its audience.

[e7alr]

I would just love it if one of you would post the overcoming objections script. It would allow us to run a pool on which point you will use.

Remember when creeping Sharia was all the rage?

Yeah, it’s been going on a while.

Is the sudden flock of deniers and apologists descending with the standard deflections what I’m waiting for?

A famous man had a dream, that some day people would be judged by the content of their character, not skin color, or by extension, group identity. Many reflected on his dream and saw the rightness of it, But bigots didn’t, and still don’t.

I agree, bigots have continued discriminating against black people because of their appearance and culture. It has been getting better though, so there’s that.

They don’t like it when you mention King, especially that speech.

[fallenturtle]

@WuWei

Derek Bell was not white.

Richard Delgado is not black.

So what? CRT wouldn’t have been developed it it wasn’t for the historical treatment of black people at the hands of white people.

You’ve created a narrative that isn’t true.

I would agree with that. Remote school really opened the eyes of a lot of parents about what exactly goes into teaching their children, process and content wise. Which I think is a good thing. Parents overall came out more informed but possibly overwhelmed as well.

[WuWei]

Of course it would. It was “developed” to keep Affirmative Action from being dismantled.

@PurpnGold you want to address this?

[e7alr]

Bigots are identified by their prejudicial discriminatory response to the identity group of another. The identity group of the target of their prejudice has no bearing on whether they are a bigot, or not.
