    I met Tim Wise in college in 1988. He was always brilliant. I saw Tim debate David Duke (the former KKK grand wizard who ran for Congress in Louisiana) under the table when he was only a college sophomore. I recently learned that he became a race relations scholar. Tim had insight and self-awareness about race at a young age because his family lived in a black neighborhood. He witnessed the disparate treatment of his friends. Tim helped me unpack the harmful assumptions I had been taught about race. So glad the rest of the world can access Tim's genius and candor. I would love to see him on the Daily Show with Trevor Noah. They both speak so eloquently about race issues. I assume it's because their lived experiences constantly contradicted the narrative we are told about race. And they are both so crazy smart!

      ANGELA DAVIS got her PhD under one of the founders of ^CRITICAL THEORY his name was Herbert Marcuse. They will tell you nothing to worry about and a Trojan Horse is just a horse: CRT is being installed in some form in 3500 public school district K thru 12 in my opinion that is child abuse. All race theories are racist and wrong and playing word redefinition games is just cunning leftist subterfuge. This is an anti American revolution.

Critical race theory is fact not theory. How do you teach teachers to deal race history and be critical about how that history was accepted/taught in the past. How do you deal with the state legislators that benefited financially from racist laws. The school board member who benefited financially from racist laws.

    Tim Wise I am African American. I think you did a great job not really dodging the question is CTR being taught in schools today. You did not flat out say “No”
    I love how you did not use the term “white supremacy” that is smart I wish more Anti racist would ditch that phrase
    Clearly elements of CTR are being taught in schools. There was an episode of Elmo hour long special on the huge protest
    There is also a Cartoon Network reoccurring public service announcement against Colorblindness.
    I don’t think parents object to teaching that America was racist in the past.
    I think Americans are infuriated about teaching that America is a White Supremacy replete with racism in 2021. It is not mostly history they resent it is teaching a doctrine of present America

    As another teacher... I'm very concerned by this CRT stuff as well. Everything shows me it's horrible. When I teach, I ensure to bring in as many stories and writings from as many cultures as I have time for. This is how we create diversity and tolerance in the classroom... Not by essentially saying "white skin bad.". CRT defenders will say that this now what CRT does, but every lesson and every teacher that I've ever seen or heard talk about it does exactly what I mentioned and ignores the growth and recent history or many different data points in their studies because it doesn't fit their narrative... CRT is a garbage theory to teach by and through... It is not wrong to recognize the wrongs of the past, but it is wrong to bring those wrongs new life.
