Black father tells board CRT keeps racism on 'life support', moments later they vote to ban it (Must See!!)

A father in Colorado Springs who is the descendant of slaves slammed critical race theory during a public school district’s board meeting, saying racism in America would "by and large be dead" if not for institutions such as the education system "keeping it on life support."

"I am a direct descendant of the North American slave trade. Both my parents are black. All four of my grandparents are black, all eight of my great great grandparents, and all 16 of my great greats. On my mother's side, my ancestors were enslaved in Alabama. On my father's side, we were enslaved in Texas," father Derrick Wilburn said during a board meeting last week.

"I am not oppressed. I'm not oppressed and I'm not a victim."

Wilburn went on to say that "racism in America would by and large be dead today if it were not for certain people and institutions keeping it on life support."

"Sadly, one of those institutions is the American education system."

The father sees it right - the PURPOSE of CRT is to fan the embers of that almost burnt out thing called racism and to put more kindling and logs in the fire.

Outstanding speech.

Reading through the comments on Twitter is discouraging, though.
Lot’s of brainwashed out there.

He's right. CRY - with flags flying marching backwards to a racist past.... Thank God there are still sane people willing to fight the commies and their useful idiots back. De-fund Education 'unions'... (commie front groups)

I downloaded it from twitter and re-uploaded it to bitchute; https://www.bitchute.com/video/eVLTTQAYgyST/

Video is still choppy, same as on twitter. Must have been a cheap video camera/phone. Audio is fine though.
