Ibram X. Kendi is the false prophet of a dangerous and lucrative faith
The New York Post ^ | July 22, 2021 | Christopher Rufo

Posted on 07/23/2021 2:56:28 PM PDT by TBP

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. Kendi’s “gift,” in other words, is for translating ivory-tower theories into media- and corporate-friendly narrative. Kendi is an open advocate for race-based discrimination, arguing that “the only remedy to past discrimination is present discrimination.” Even worse, he has proposed a federal “Department of Antiracism,” unaccountable to voters or legislators, with the power to suppress “racist ideas” and veto, nullify or abolish any law at any level of government not deemed “antiracist” — a policy that verges on the totalitarian.

Even Rufo won't say it, but I will: Kendi is a racist totalitarian funded by racist totalitarians to keep him on the plantation, and he's happy to be there.

Wow - we just had a young pastor that interned at our church for a year (PCA) - he was a fan of this guy. Now it all makes sense …

In that case, that young pastor is a hate-filled bigot.

It’s the fault of his progressive white sponsors, who have made sure that his audience doesn’t have enough education to check anything he says. And they have done so on purpose, and for the same reason tehri ancestors prevented blacks from being educated.

Kendi is black segregationist.

In his book “Stamped from the Beginning,” he is unhappy with people like Fredrick Douglas being racist against freed slaves.

He is unhappy about white abolitionists, being condescending towards the limited black achievement after the end of slavery.

Kendi the little “Black Moses” wants to lead his people to a segregationist promise land.

What he actually wants to do is replace our Euro centric history with a Afro centric “made up” history.

This dude is dangerous and whites that go to college “eat this crap up.”

PCA? I’m surprised. Unless there are PCA churches going down the same apostasy road as PCUSA.
Unfortunately there are churches and even the leadership of the SBC that have been drawn by the siren song. That includes Al Mohler of all people.
This is the Great Falling Away.

“Kendi is black segregationist.”

I think the average white would be shocked as to the percentage of blacks that would fall into that category.

The PCA is going downhill - A lot of pastors have made Tim Keller their idol - therein lies the problem.

“I think the average white would be shocked as to the percentage of blacks that would fall into that category.”

You’re correct about white knowledge of this subject.

I don’t want to mistaken for a person that is a bigot or intolerant of black political positions.

Segregation in your government or public sector I can’t condone in 2021.

Self segregation between groups outside of the public sphere, is simple uncontrollable. You’d need the most authoritarian government “control freaks” to implement that agenda.

I’m never going down that road because the consequences, would have your whole society and civilization living in a prison.

I like freedom and dislike control freaks.

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

Kendi, Robin D’Angelo and Nicole Hannah-Jones are simply race hustlers laughing all the way to the bank.

He just got into a twitter war with Candace Owens, saying she misrepresented his words. Even though she played his audiobook narration of his book ...
