Backlash is rising against the Marxist critical race theory (CRT) behind The New York Times‘ “1619 Project” and other efforts to indoctrinate Americans with the idea that American society is fundamentally or “structurally” racist. This week, the Chinese American Citizens Alliance of Greater New York (CACAGNY) issued a powerful statement condemning critical race theory and urging Chinese Americans to oppose it.
“Critical Race Theory (CRT) is a hateful, divisive, manipulative fraud,” CACAGNY declared. “One way or another, CRT wants to get rid of too many Asians in good schools. Asians are over-represented. CRT is today’s Chinese Exclusion Act. CRT is the real hate crime against Asians” (emphasis original).
Critical race theory teaches that any racial disparities must ipso facto be proof of some hidden racial bias or discrimination, regardless of civil rights laws explicitly forbidding such discrimination. Since Americans of Asian ancestry are overrepresented in colleges, universities, and certain high-income professions, CRT effectively teaches that American society is structurally biased in favor of Asians.
“CRT appears in our workplaces under the cover of implicit bias/sensitivity training. It infiltrates our schools pretending to be culturally/ethnically responsive pedagogy, with curricula such as the New York Times’ 1619 Project and Seattle’s ethnomathematics,” CACAGNY argued. “From its very roots, CRT is racist, repressive, discriminatory, and divisive.”

The Chinese American group laid out the main “dogmas” of critical race theory, including (emphasis original):

whites and Asians study..Blacks and Hispanics don’t..In the 1950’s blacks made sure they got a good education..Now,to be a authentic black,you have to be a moron...Too bad,the Hispanics seem to be following the black playbook....
Critical race theory: if a black person is less incompetent than a white person, it’s because the white person is racist. Therefore give the white person’s job to the black person, and ignore the result.
Asians are even more badly cheated by affirmative action than are whites.
The trainers insist that white malesJews must “work hard to understand” their “whiteJew privilege.” “white male Jew culture” leads to “lowered quality of life at work and home, reduced life expectancy, unproductive relationships, and high stress” forcing this “white male Jew standard” on women and minorities.
I don't disagree. But the sheer number of whites who have been cheated by affirmative action is in the many millions. And it is still a national disgrace. There is NO reason the USSC should have allowed it in the past, and no reason for them to allow it to continue.
Asians have more backbone than whites. I haven’t seen any whites protesting that garbage - most just meekly submit to it.

Well, maybe. The local paper (SF Chronicle) had a piece this morning about street crime and violence targeting Asians in the Bay Area. And it was filled with “leaders” of the Asian community whining about Donald Trump saying “China virus,” and not a single word about the demographics of perpetrators of the crimes (i.e., young black males). Although I’m sure it’s possible that they did talk about it and the newspaper simply ignored them, I haven’t seen much in the way of willingness among Asian activists in the Bay Area to stand up and speak honestly about the reality of racial conflict.
RE: Asians have more backbone than whites.
They don’t have the historical “sin” ( for want of a better word ) of having enslaved blacks and are therefore, sort of “immune” from charges of racism ( as it is currently understood in the west ).
How does CRT explain why Nigerian immigrants do well in the US? Do they just ignore them?
70% of their voters are America-hating HarrisBiden-voting Demsheviks, probably approaching 100% among “activists”. Energy spent honestly speaking about racial conflict is energy that can’t go towards attacking whitey and trying to appropriate special victim group status for themselves.
“They don’t have the historical “sin” ( for want of a better word ) of having enslaved blacks...”
No, it’s actually a current sin:
“But when China has arrested a million Muslim Uighurs and Kazakhs, and when it says evidence of their criminality includes “wearing a veil or headscarf” and the “avoidance of alcohol”, and when Han officials sweep up quotas of racial minorities in Xinjiang to break their links with family and culture by sending them to factories far from home...”
Benjamin Franklin wrote a treatise against slavery. He’d been a slave himself.
#11. Even money the Red Chinese govt now has significant influence if not control of SF’s “Chinatown”. Similar things going on in DC, Chicago’s and NYC’s Chinatown but maybe with a little less success (hopefully).
“How does CRT explain why Nigerian immigrants do well in the US?”
Presumably those Nigerians have learned how to absorb white privilege without changing their skin color - pretty remarkable. Apparently Asians having been doing that as well for decades.
Affirmative action is neither. Untold millions of whites lost opportunities only because of their skin color for uneducated illiterate blacks who had no business being hired.
There’s your reparations !!
