You might not know why Trayvon Martin’s friend seemed hostile and dim and ill-mannered when she was testifying at the George Zimmerman trial last week.
But your child does.
Especially if he or she attends school in one of the hundreds of districts around the country that use Critical Race Theory to teach their students about black and white people in America.
Critical Race Theory made the headlines last year during the presidential election. The investigators at Breitbart.com came up with a videotape showing then-law student Barack Obama giving a warm introduction to the godfather of Critical Race, Derrick Bell.
Critical Race Theory says racism is everywhere. And it is permanent. As for any gains made in the courts or in public or private life, they are an illusion. They serve the White Supremacists who lead a life of White Privilege.
Today, Critical Race is more than just a theory. It is an industry, with consultants crisscrossing the globe to explain how White Supremacy, White Privilege and Institutional Racism are oppressing black and brown people. Today more than ever.

Race baiters and hucksters are evil people. Black people would do well to discard them from their lives but refuse to do so at their own peril — and ours. I fear for this country with more than 10% of its citizenry being encouraged to take no accountability and demand endless stream of entitlements for perceived historic transgressions.
Unfortunately those blacks who buy into the theory are setting themselves up to be permanent treads on the shoes of humanity.
Why is it that our educational system adopts the views of the most radical leftists? Is it because leftists in and out of the educational system scratch each other’s backs? It’s time for the few moderate people left in the Democratic Party to do some soul-searching, before we go full speed into a leftist dictatorship.
The head of my department in a Fortune 500 company, a guy with serious responsibility, is black. A co-worker who is both a lawyer and a tax accountant and who told me that he became an accountant because he didn’t want the government having too much of his money, is black. A guy I support is from Africa and when he came here he refused to sign up for welfare benefits and now has been doing a great job here for over 20 years.
It’s culture, not race. I’m so sick of the hustlers who enslave the blacks in victimhood for their own benefit. Thank God some don’t guy into this loser’s baloney.
I can remember being surprized that macaroni and cheese is considered holiday fare by some. To me, it is very mundane and definitely not holiday fare.
If I’m uncomfortable around the black neighbor’s snarling pit bull, it’s because I have racist tendencies and because I have these issues (unbeknownst to me or anyone else who really knows me) the dog senses in me an underlying hostility which makes the dog uncomfortable and afraid for it’s life. It’s perfectly normal canine behavior! So, it’s really my fault and I should seek professional help for my inherent issues because I owe it to the dog and to society in general. I should be grateful for this opportunity to become so enlightened and if wasn’t for that dog I’d be going to hell for sure.
Had the Community Organizer, Barry Obama not publicly described Travon Martin as what a son of his might look like, there would most likely never have been this trial, a directed verdict might have ended this politically correct racist trial. America is demonizing herself once again for the Jessie Jackson's, Al Sharpton's and Obama's for the hyphenated Americans while the MSM fans this racist fire. The shame belongs on/to all Americans who are paralyzed by Political Correctness and a man and his wife in the White House who feign Americanisms while looting the 'treasury' i.e., tax dollars for personal use.
Some random thoughts:
Critical Race Theory seems to postulate a perpetual motion machine. Such things can’t exist, and are ultimately found to be powered by external energy put into the system. It is not hard to ascertain where that extra energy is coming from in this instance, and why.
Bell-shaped curves are a sometimes-unpleasant reality of nature, throughout nature. We ignore them and their implications at our own risk.
Our Revolution focused wisely on Liberty, and produced a miracle. The French Revolution added Egality and Fraternity, and produced chaos and tyranny.
‘Equality,’ I spoke the word
As if a wedding vow
Ah, but I was so much older then
I’m younger than that now. (Dylan)
My youngest went to public school in ultra democrat mont county md, which has one of the best school systems in the country. She has never been taught anything like this.
We were playing outside, and for whatever reason I pushed the dog from behind. !!! It tore the side of my face off, half way tore the off ear, and was close to the jugular, leaving a few punctures in other areas of the face. We were 40 miles from the Doctor. Needless to say to this day I am fearful of unfriendly and most all large dogs. It is written in my past and it is strong. Some dogs are more dominate than others. I respect all of them, and my heart starts racing.
I have a dog and have had dogs that I love. Smaller dogs mostly. My daughter loves Great Danes!.
For the United States to have any sort of a future, this kind of crap has to be shut down.
Setting race relations back 100 years.
At least.
Eh, I dunno. You could paint yourself in bacon grease, let the dog maul you, come out of the hospital singing praises to the good dog and you would still be considered a creepy-ass speciesist.
I peg it at about 140 years. Reconstruction. That's about where we are today.
Yes, that’s a side effect that may or may not be intended by the charlatans pushing this theory. If you tell people that they are oppressed by some invisible power which will prevent them from achieving, many who believe you will just stop trying.
When I was in school, we didn’t not learn anything like this until college-level courses, and even then, they were usually electives or course taught by specific aggrieved professors that one could avoid pretty easily.
I did actually have a class in high school that taught this nonsense, but that was at a state academy which pretty much taught college level courses with college professors in all the classes. Most kids, at that time, probably wouldn’t get it in high school unless they were very unlucky.
Now, I can’t comment on what they are teaching nowadays, maybe things have changed.
