Wikipedia Entry for 'Critical Race Theory' Changed Today
Ace of Spades ^ | March 8, 2012 | Ace of spades

Posted on 03/09/2012 7:53:12 AM PST by opentalk

In the version dated January 31, 2012, the words "white supremacy" and "racial power" appear.

Although no set of canonical doctrines or methodologies defines CRT, the movement is loosely unified by two common areas of inquiry. First, CRT has analyzed the way in which white supremacy and racial power are reproduced over time, and in particular, the role that law plays in this process.

(Emphasis added.) However, the current version states the following:

Although no set of canonical doctrines or methodologies defines CRT, the movement is loosely unified by two common areas of inquiry. First, CRT has analyzed the way in which racial hierarchies are reproduced over time, and in particular, the role that law plays in this process.

(Emphasis added.) You can see both versions on this page. If you go to the revision page, it looks like a little war broke out today, with edits and re-edits. One participant commented that it had obviously been changed to match "Soledad Obrien's empty-headed explanation on television last night."

Busted!

The second definition is more accurate globally, and especially in Asia; the first would be more applicable in the US.

The Bell weather fool is only a agitator. Lets look at the evidence. Africa.

He should have taken his theory to Africa to show his dominant view and how it applies to success. But then again, the waters would be muddied by another stumbling block ~ Islam.

It’s frightening how truly Orwellian the left in this country really is.

Unless you remember that Orwell made nothing up on his own - he simply described what he was looking at.

And he was looking at the Left.
