It is hard to fathom the extent to which American colleges and universities have been taken over by Critical Theory, race-based or not. One good indication is that French and Canadian leaders are warning their citizens about the dangers of importing these ideas from the U.S.
In an October speech about the dangers of further separation between ethnic groups in France, President Emmanuel Macron blamed “certain social science theories entirely imported from the United States.” The reference was so clear, it even caught the attention of The New York Times. According to the Times, the nation’s education minister announced that “There’s a battle to wage against an intellectual matrix from American universities.”
What the paper failed to mention is that the minister’s remarks were made in response to the murder of a schoolteacher.
In Canada, the premier of Quebec made similar statements in February. As reported from Montreal, Francois Legault warned of the importation of American ideas, writing in a Facebook post: “If you start self-censoring out of fear of being insulted, or if you don’t defend someone who is the victim of it, you play the radical game. I understand it might be scary, but we have to stand, stand firm.” He has instructed the minister of higher education to look into the matter further. Even the official opposition agrees.
It isn’t a partisan issue. At least in Quebec, opposing parties think that the ideas emanating from American colleges should be kept out. That’s the kind of bipartisanship we can get behind.
