Interesting, from Bell's Obituary: Oct 2011 WaPo

Pittsburgh native, scholar Derrick Bell Jr. dies, focused attention on bias in legal system

...Bell was credited with developing "critical race theory," which suggested that the U.S. legal system was inherently biased against African Americans and other minorities because it was built on an ingrained white point of view.

He argued in his many books and lectures that the life experiences of black people and other minorities should be considered in hiring decisions and in applying the law.

Sounds like Obama and his DOJ

Critical Race Theory was the reasoning used to drop the charges against the New Black Panthers. I guarantee you that Holder has Bell's books all over his office.

Or let's turn the US into Haiti, right after we get rid of whitey.

Yup. It’s all about skin color with them. If MLK were alive today, they would beat him into the pavement and then spit on him for being a Tom.
