You should watch the video posted on page 1. It was interesting and laid out the principle theories of CRT.

I mean, you assumed this argument, while not being able to have an honest conversation.

racism still exists and simply teaching kids how it exist in the legal system shouldnt be seen as brainwashing. No one pretends crack vs powered cocaine discrepancies arent racial , why do we have to pretend school zoning is ???

A professor at Fordham University got fired today because he mixed up the names of two Black students and said the wrong name. How many students do professors have in the course of a semester ? Quite common that professors don't even know your name. But because these students were Black the professor got fired.

Those 2 Black students felt "disrespected" because they were Black so the professor got fired.
So mixing up names is now racist in nature ?
Event happened in September, he was fired in October.

He wasnt fired for mixing up the names, he was fired based on the little we know, for a weird rant he made in the email that no one asked him to write.

and to answer your question, 14 students were in his class

The kids also werent offended or even disrespected, in fact, all 3 articles I have read(including the NY Post) specifically say that.

This was a perfect opportunity for someone like you to blame white liberals for overreacting, but instead, you blamed the black kids who actually didnt care. Thats weird.

There we go. I don't agree with you so I'm not being honest.
That's exactly how people SHUT DOWN conversations and debates. When others don't agree with you then you don't want to hear it.

What..you only want an echo chamber ?

Blacks still recovering from the Civil War so everyone has to bend over backwards and treat them with kid gloves ?

The Japanese were physically locked up in camps, their homes and businesses taken away a mere 80 years ago and that is all but forgotten and the Japanese aren't crying about it. They put their lives back together.

But Blacks...156 years and they are still crying about being "slaves".

They don't seem to realize that makes them look incompetent and incapable of taking care of themselves. Those people need therapy because there are plenty of other blacks who are doing just fine.

In fact, that just reminded me that I recently heard a middle aged black man yelling at a younger black man, begging on the street.

"My mother was a prostitute. I don't know who my father was. So don't give me that bulls**t! Get off your ass and work like I did! I own a house because I didn't **** my money away!" Expletives followed.

You have a right to believe that.

I believe on the other hand, that you are smarter than that post, and are purposefully arguing from an obscure over exaggeration for the purpose of doing exactly what you said, shutting down a conversation.

I want real conversations, not over exaggerations.

Anyone who was in an internment camp was given 44,000 dollars. And anyone the government couldnt find or forgot to pay, their descendants were given that plus interests.


Thanks for advocating giving black people reparation.
