Ibram X. Kendi is the false prophet of a dangerous and lucrative faith

His philosophy would jeopardize the bedrock American ideal of individual dignity and equality under law.

Kendi presents himself as a radical subversive. But in reality, he is an ideologist of elite opinion, buoyed by government and corporate patronage. Kendi’s work has been endorsed by Fortune 100 companies, the federal bureaucracy and the US military — the very power structures he claims to oppose.

Kendi’s core thesis — that racism is the single, self-evident cause of racial differences in everything from school grades to incarceration rates to income and thus must be rectified using “antiracist discrimination” — reiterates critical race theory’s basic concepts.

CRT isn’t philosophy. It’s blacks with chips on their shoulders.

I'm too old for this crap. Well, I just turned 55. EVerytime I see CRT, I think of a Cathode Ray Tube from an old style TV pictured below:



A 1982 Zenith System 3, I've been using it almost daily since 1983.

And this is why BLACK African nations are so screwed up - right?
