Hi Truthiz1,

I’m glad you enjoyed this topic of the day. I somehow knew you would as the subject matter is indeed a challenging one. So, I’ll take it as a compliment that I wore your “poor little brain out!” 😀

I agree with you. I think the name is wrong for this. Whoever came up with it made a mistake.

Hey Truth I was waiting to see what you was going to add today. This phrase is confusing but the Repubs are trying to make it political and that is just confusing it more. I am glad we get to talk this out though. From what I was reading about it today what DJ said is true. White people want to stop talking about racism and tell us to get over it. And CRT is not letting them do it.

[…]- DJ

Note: I am very critical of buzz phrases like “Critical Race Theory” and buzz words like “woke.” But I appreciate DJ using the word “awakening” as it relates to CRT to clearly lay out just what this theory is and what it seeks to do (its meaning and purpose). 

I just wish they would have given the theory another name.
