No.

In fact, to fight racism we need to defeat the so-called anti-racist Woke.

Should black children made to feel shame about the inordinate amount of crime their adults commit in our society? NO!

To fight racism, I suggest that we identify the “bad” race and do everything we can to make their lives miserable. [/s]

Discomfiting white children isn’t fighting racism.

It IS racism.

It’s all nonsense. Their goal is to force all Whiteys into a submissive position, bowing down and begging forgiveness, groveling to be released from the guilt. Then they can do with Whitey what they will, including taking all his money, and then eliminating Whitey.

But what happens when CRT is employed in grade schools? If the basic pedagogical tools of confessing privilege and accepting one’s role in institutional racism as a driving societal force are part of children’s antiracism education, is the promised discomfort a part of that as well?

What happens if you mercilessly beat a young pup? You get a snarling, skittish adult dog who will likely rip your face off.

Does the question work this way?

To Fight Crime, Should Black Children Be Made ‘Uncomfortable’?

If not, then the question itself is racist - as is the author of this article.

They may succeed in engendering a sense of white guilt in small children, but adults are going to develop prejudices and hatred of blacks they did not formerly have.

No.

I don’t have children in school, but from what I read it seems a lot of time in school is spent on shaping students to a particular world view. Let’s call it brainwashing.

I would like to see how students in schools that have a strong focus on this are doing in math, reading and writing, the sciences, a knowledge of real history, and genuine critical thinking. You know, the stuff of education.

It’s not about fighting ‘racism’. It’s about punishing whitey.

Racism is a learned behavior. If you wish to solve the racism problem, which is the better solution: 1) refuse to talk about the problem, or 2) remove what teaches racism in the first place? I agree that blacks experience more racism than to other minorities in the US. The question is: Why? The answer is because of black behavior. How many times have we read posts here where a violent act is described and someone posts: “Do I need to look?”

Blacks have a culture problem and rather than blame everyone else on the planet for racism, they need to look in their own house for the solution. A good place to start: With over 72% illegitimate children raised in a home with no father present, how about working to curb that? One factor to help: Change the welfare laws which makes higher payments when no father is present. Indeed, I would make the payments lower in the absence of a father present. This would encourage mothers to encourage fathers to help raise their children. Being a father is easy. Being a parent is your responsibility and is not easy. Man up, guys, and start being a father to the kids you created.

Until non-blacks start seeing an effort on the part of the black community to address its problems, we need to back off until they accept responsibility for what is a problem that essentially starts in their own community.

What if CRT approaches to ending racism backfire and actually have the opposite effect? What will they do then?

Not that this could ever happen, of course...

Typical nasty angry liberals- their answer to a non problem is to commit child abuse evidently
