I'm so glad the Internet exists though, because it has helped a white East European girl like me learn about Tulsa, James Baldwin and so many things I knew nothing about. It's mind-boggling and incredibly sad that American students are being denied education in so many ways... Thank you, Roy, for another eye-opening discussion!
I feel similar. I live in Vermont (think Germany's black forest with a house in the middle), US and didn't think we had racism anymore until the Trump election. Suddenly the wkly trip to get groceries, as well as family holidays, were just full of instances where u learn ppl you'd never expect hold odd hatreds inside. It was disorienting.
Fellow European white girl here and completely agree. However, we need to examine our own history of racism (which is extensive everywhere in Europe) and the current manifestations of it, along with current explicit racism in Europe. I wish there were more resources online about racism/history if racism in Europe as I feel many Europeans (including myself) learn far more about American racism and fail to examine racism properly in our own countries

@@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460 I'd like to respectfully disagree on it being white privilege that she thought the way she did. I grew up in NYC & thought that we were immune from racism because that stuff happened in the south with people in hoods & robes. It wasn't until I started socializing on message boards, along with the underground house music scene, that I started to see my life thru the prism of systemic racism. I'm a light skinned Dominican 🇩🇴 immigrant. I didn't see the nuances of how differently I was treated when I dressed like a club kid as opposed to when I was in my suit & tie. It's not white privilege or willful ignorance. It's just that I didn't have a point of reference & hadn't had to chance to walk a "foot", let alone a mile, in your shoes. Thats why these coversations are so critically necessary for the healing to continue. Blessings upon blessings!
That is the problem with today's social media in a nutshell. There is no sin in not knowing the truth. But to willfully reject the truth once it is presented to you is a reflection of your own dishonesty.
Unfortunately I think this will be the catalyst for more racism. For some people it's more important to save face to than to reconsider that ildvways are wrong. They will double down on ignorance with a quickness.
Only an insecure person will hold on to their erroneous beliefs. Instead of expanding on their knowledge base, which would take effort on their part, they, unfortunately, would prefer to remain ignorant & pass their ignorance on to others, as well as berating anyone who isn't insecure, lazy, & equally ignorant. That is the reason #45 loves uneducated people; he is one.
@@ronnie5329 OK, so I'm guessing you believe that systemic racism doesn't exist anymore. I hereby challenge you to state exactly when equality of rights, treatment resources and justice in this country became a reality. I can't wait.

@@bconni2 Really? You must have a different echo chamber - this is the first time I've heard some of these arguments and points and historical references. I learned something, that means I've been educated. You may not LIKE it, but that doesn't mean it's false.
Kimberlé Crenshaw sums up what CRT is looking at so well: "...what we are talking about is how our systems consistently reproduce that which is embedded in them". There is no reason to have fear of examining how the past affects us today, right? Cause of course we want to make it better, right? Or.... oh....um......
Boom. That's the power of CRT and, really, any critical thinking. It has the power to shine light on what is or isn't working in general. Sometimes everyone wants that. But if you shine light on where a system has failed a whole group/class/demographic of people...well, you know you've hit some truth when a certain set of powers that be literally make it their mission to demonize the word/term so that the general public freaks out about it (which is what has been admitted about CRT - "the goal is to run this campaign so well that when people hear CRT they automatically give it negative connotations even without knowing what it is")
"Their feelings about talking about race is more important than our experiences of actually dealing with racism. I can't think of anything more fragile than that." 👏👏👏👏
Black History they've tried to erase 101: My Great Grandmother Annie Clark Ellis, after the death of the Elder Family, inherited the Crescent Plantation in Tallulah, Louisiana- 1910s. The Ellis Place was one of the first Black Institutions of Education and Trades driven by the Invention of modern, advanced, tools for agriculture and mechanics.
I want all the truth and injustice done to all peoples done in America to be taught in schools so that it doesn't happen again. Truth is how we heal, lies and ignorance shouldn't be tolerated. When you don't do that, you foster hate and division.
I am not understanding what someone can dislike about this video! This was a great listen and I hope that more people can have this conversation. Thank you all for sharing.
Yes, I think it highlights the lack of logic in white people on fox incredulously saying "they're saying that suburbs are BAD?! They're saying our system is RACIST?! *Shocked Pikachu*" like, yes! Yes they are! Suburbs were overwhelmingly white because of redlining and segregation! Locked black people out of generational wealth which prevents them from passing on things like inheritance to their offspring/ grandkids that many white families take for granted. It's a ripple effect- emancipation didn't happen overnight and things haven't been hunky dory for the past 100 years, and housing discrimination still exists. Honestly it's like dealing with ostriches with their heads in the sand
It's never been hard to understand tho. Being able to think critically on race via theories on the justice system and its historical issues for those of color. It's not about white guilt, but there are white people who made it about that to further a racist karen I. E. victim narrative of this country's history of racism being truly taught to their children (and them being very afraid of that).
CRT is a marxist theory, it groups everyone in opressed and opressors. It will lead to more not less divide, it will lead to segregation and possibly even worse as my country experienced
The issue is that the past few months have distorted what CRT is, characterizing it as some BS that one of the commenters on this post said. It’s important to get the accurate information out with more frequency than the claims of fascism and the like. FoxNews and their ilk would say that teaching Germans about anti-semitism in the 19th and 20th centuries if that media were present in that country.
I was introduced to CRT aa a part of diversity training at my command during President Obama’s second term. I believe this occurred after the incident at the Air Force Academy. It was an incredibly insightful and introspective experience for me. The administration that followed made a point of erasing anything that was accomplished by the 44th president, regardless whether or not it was a positive for their base. Being measured on abilities and contribution instead of privilege is scary for some folks.
Without a doubt this conversation was the most thought provoking, authentic and f*"king honest factual on the topic I have had the pleasure to experience. The constant parade of adults crying, literally, was such a pathetic display of emotional misdirection. Thank you, Roy, Professor Crenshaw and CJ Hunt.
Go deeper if you dare. Does racism exist: absolutely. Is creating a victim culture of race, women, gender, etc., a way to resolve or a way for destruction? The one and only truth of CRT is the same as the one and only truth of all Marxist ideology: History is only oppressor and oppressed. Put in women, race, race, height, fat into CRT and boom! Instant victim. Watch institutionalized CRT at Evergreen, filmed by a student, Ben Boyce, over multiple years. You are white….You are racist. If you do not confess to racism… You are racist. If you question CRT….you are a racist. It’s a sick, divisive, myopic religion of victims, and nothing is easier than convincing people they are victims. I mean, if you think creating angry victims worked out well for Cambodia, Russia and China, more power to you.

This was so informative! I heard CRT peripherally because i have friends that are teachers, but since I dont have kids, I never thought to deeply about issue. Knowledge is power and thank you educating us!
I learned about systematic racism at age 14 when I was being denied access to honors courses in a wasp-dominated, old monied private high school because those courses were only for the elite families and a very small number of tokens. I've been burnt out of this topic because I'm so tired of explaining and no one listening to me.
@@andriesquast2028 sure that's why 5 girls with straight Cs and Ds were complaining about being automatically re-enrolled in the honors course the next year.. also the year I was denied the honors math I maintained a 98% average and was not allowed into the honors math.. and when I asked my science teacher what it took to get into the honors courses the next year he said I needed a 92% average (knowing I had a 91%) and "it depends if you want to".. why don't you use your superior white male intellect to tell me what that means?
I'm a retired teacher who wishes I was still in the classroom. When I taught school we didn't have the benefit of knowing about critical race theory, we just taught it without naming it. We taught it through the amazing stories of the people and their life experiences. What I wonder is if there will be enough black and white voters to prevent these Republicans from getting into office again in 2022.
For some reason, don’t knock down a confederate statue because of, “the proud history.” Teaching the history of segregation and slavery, is apparently unacceptable, though. Chinua Achebe, is not read as much as, “Heart of Darkness.” The proof is in the pudding.
Not teaching children what Really Happened (and what's Still happening) isn't going to change the reality of why this country is so divided. It's Always what you Don't Know that takes a massive toll on you in the end. Acting like America's Oppression and Racism never happened, definitely is not the Solution.
We know this, which is why we don't teach it. Republicans will lose if people understood impacts from legislation. That is really what this is all about. People also do not want to feel like they are the beneficiaries of racism, even though all White people in the US absolutely are. Then you get to fixing it but that means providing even more help to those impacted negatively and it isn't fair.
how? all they do is say, the reason you’re poor is because you’re black! and there’s nothing you can do about it except educate the children that are not responsible for anything for another 10 years at least! such a dumb solution to a complex problem.
I can say as a white man, I know that this is true and it is crazy, that it has continued for far to long. I am afraid that with the current conservative ideas flying around this country it is critical to act and for all of us to act.
Dear Kevin and Sandra, Well then, get to groveling mister and missus, go find a dark complected person to apologize to for whatever some white person did in the distant past, give them all your money while your at it.
It's not just black parents that should be speaking up when laws are passed to prevent the true history of our country from being taught. It will affect black kids more, but it will really affect every kid, because we will all lose out on what our country could truely be in the future.

The "playing dumb game" is getting old. How much longer must we wait for people to get it, to take the time to learn about CRT, and realize that If an adult has a difficult time understanding this theory, how can a child be expected to learn this. CRT is not being taught in the schools, especially in grade school. Teachers have enough work to do as teachers to be coming down on them for this. I'm glad I don't teach anymore. I worked in a high school where 80% of the kids were black, and it was horrible how the system works with the black students. whenever a teacher has discipline issues for example, with a kid, in this school, they would have the police show up. It was terrible! I really feel that public schools are like prisons --they even look like prisons. If I had any children, I would not turn them in to the public school system. I would do everything in my power either to learn to teach them myself, or move to another country where I can afford to pay a private school to teach them --Mexico or further down south.

This conversation is so crucial! I love that the Daily Show goes to this vitally important place! CRT is scientific study of our society, y'all.! it is not about who has evil in their hearts towards others! It is an objective, graduate level look into how our past social structures are embedded into our systems today.... nobody living today created these systems. Relax, please everybody, there's no reason to be scared..... as long as there's no current ill intent.......
Yeah but, the unveiling by science of the malignant intent behind much of public policy is a cause for concern for certain white people who don't want it discussed or looked, much less tackled. It shed a less than rosey tint on specifically white culture and this is s what all the fuss is about. It tarnishes a legacy they don't want tarnished.
I am so grateful that as a senior in high school in the mid-1970s,I had an amazing teacher who taught Black Literature. I gained a little bit more understanding of racism’s effects. Thanks for addressing this with a reasonable approach.
Can you take a moment to address the predicament of Black WOMEN though. I find most Black Women are indoctrinated to speak on the plight of Black Men...but can't speak up for themselves

@@weryinteresting What? Why are you demanding us to produce the injustice by specific individual laws under this video? Those are being challenged & addressed through CRT at the college level (since 1970🤨). Take an economics course. Take a CRT college course.

Figure it out. Your insistence that we point out which laws are racist under this video seems to want to pull us into a debate.

Then those same people set up laws that prevent you from amassing that wealth and this happens for centuries? What would your ambitions be then.

I feel like it never was a "theory", as much as a breakdown of how things actually got put together. The idea of even calling it a theory, as opposed to an academic revealing of hidden facts, lends the ability for it to be questioned, and portrays it as an optional version of historical truths.... when really, it's not an option.

Sometimes I am ashamed to be white, but it has nothing to do with CRT or what ancestors maybe possibly did. I'm ashamed because of how I see other white people behave when faced with an inconvenient truth. I wish America wasn't so egotistical and would actually learn from other countries instead of being obsessed with the idea that America is the best and we know best about everything. Especially when it comes to history. Just look at Germany, they educate their people about the horrors they caused during WW2, and it's not to make them hate themselves or teach them they come from evil, cause most of them don't. It's just to educate to improve life and prevent another tragedy from happen. CRT isn't here to make white people hate themselves, it's just to learn about the past so that America can actually be the country it says it is and actually be equal and to prevent atrocities from the past from happening again.
If you ever get tired from self flagellating...check out ppl. like James Lindsay or Bret Weinstein. Progressives who are not regressive, liberals who are not illiberal, you know ppl. who really care for freedom and equality for all. And hopefully your back stops bleeding.
Accentuating the negative side of events while glossing over the positive is far from holistic learning. Also, at the rate things are going right now, thanks to officials saying certain citizens are a threat to others simply for living, we are well on our way to establishing a new Weimar Republic.
@@WAEVOICE Exactly how is CRT accentuating the negative while glossing over the positive? Also, American history as it is taught now accentuates the positive while ignoring the negative...and pretty much excludes Black achievement.
This is SO clear and helpful . I watched it before when it was 1st on, and I'm watching it again and it brings more to light. I wish THIS clip would be shown in schools.
Thank all of you for clarifying this whole CRT issue...I had a basic understanding, but you guys have and excellent way of presenting the concept. In the news the information is so, so, so distorted or downright non-factual it is the reason white America, with they're inability to exercise critical thinking, is lost down the rabbit hole.
Absolutely amazing, How our black ancestors can speak from the graves with modern technology. The Internet has been such a blessing telling the truth about black American history. You can't rewrite history to fit your own narrative. Thank you Professor Crenshaw and the Daily show. Truth + Wisdom = Peace ✌ 🙏!!

Critical Race *needs* to be taught. Over 67 years I have not only come to see color but to appreciate it and the culture and background of the person. Sadly, so many are surprised and often cautious when this old white woman smiles at them or stops to compliment them on something they are wearing, or whatever.
Roy, thank you for this important interview. I appreciate your approach and allowing plenty of time to explain about the foundation of CRT! I must share this!
Not really. As a conservative I can tell you that CRT has mobilized a lot of independents and turned them against Democrats. I was a pessimist in regarding to 2022 and 2024, but if CRT continues to be on the forefront then I will remain optimistic the GOP will regain power.

Some European once wrote, Americans are basically perpetual teenagers. We're an adolescent nation with the positives--like optimism and enthusiasm--and negatives like impulsiveness, mood swings and not cleaning up after ourselves. 😉 We want everyone to like us, but we're also insecure.

As long as the far-right can keep many white Americans ignorant of the truth, they will succeed at perpetuating racial inequality and injustice.
I have never had a video that has affected me so much. This is an amazing piece of work. Every black person should view this. I was not aware to the degree how embedded racism was in our society. I knew it was there,but not how much it affects my everyday life. It has shown me things the I do unconsciously. WOW
@DonkeyKing Sniffedsomehair The fact that you're discussing it makes it a fact. Clearly you didn't watch any or all of the video, so go educate yourself before speaking again.
Thanks to CRT I could start understanding why people think and feel so differently... 'cause what they live is so different. CRT tells you why these lived experiences are so different and it doesn't really depend on the individual's beliefs or values.

It does depend on the individual beliefs. That is what makes up cultures and the culture in this country is built on racism and like discussed in this video, those that are negatively impacted avoid it also, because that’s what they were taught to do. Hence a belief.
nope. we just don’t want our children taught history that is in the process of unfolding, there’s no way for us to know what happened or is happening. there’s no way to know if it’s true or not. teaching children something, whether it’s true or not, to fix a societal problem. sounds like indoctrination but ok.
Much like communism, sounds great in theory. In practice, it’s division and racism.

She is right about allies denying it. Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman have said many times that they think we should stop talking about racism.... And they both played in a movie(glory) about institutional Racism 🤯
They were talking about an idealized world where race was not a thing. A world where they (or I) would be seen not as a black man, but just as a man. But we all know that is an impossibility and will never be a reality. Do YOU believe that the real problem is not those who perpetuate racism itself, but is instead those who insist on talking about it?
@@Greyareas27 Im not saying they are the reason for this. I'm saying their words are used by the perpetrators to dismiss the reality of what's going on.
I'm so glad the Internet exists though, because it has helped a white East European girl like me learn about Tulsa, James Baldwin and so many things I knew nothing about. It's mind-boggling and incredibly sad that American students are being denied education in so many ways... Thank you, Roy, for another eye-opening discussion!
I feel similar. I live in Vermont (think Germany's black forest with a house in the middle), US and didn't think we had racism anymore until the Trump election. Suddenly the wkly trip to get groceries, as well as family holidays, were just full of instances where u learn ppl you'd never expect hold odd hatreds inside. It was disorienting.
Fellow European white girl here and completely agree. However, we need to examine our own history of racism (which is extensive everywhere in Europe) and the current manifestations of it, along with current explicit racism in Europe. I wish there were more resources online about racism/history if racism in Europe as I feel many Europeans (including myself) learn far more about American racism and fail to examine racism properly in our own countries

@@dr.braxygilkeycruises1460 I'd like to respectfully disagree on it being white privilege that she thought the way she did. I grew up in NYC & thought that we were immune from racism because that stuff happened in the south with people in hoods & robes. It wasn't until I started socializing on message boards, along with the underground house music scene, that I started to see my life thru the prism of systemic racism. I'm a light skinned Dominican 🇩🇴 immigrant. I didn't see the nuances of how differently I was treated when I dressed like a club kid as opposed to when I was in my suit & tie. It's not white privilege or willful ignorance. It's just that I didn't have a point of reference & hadn't had to chance to walk a "foot", let alone a mile, in your shoes. Thats why these coversations are so critically necessary for the healing to continue. Blessings upon blessings!
“Ignorance itself is not malicious, it’s holding onto that ignorance in light of facts that it becomes malicious”
That is the problem with today's social media in a nutshell. There is no sin in not knowing the truth. But to willfully reject the truth once it is presented to you is a reflection of your own dishonesty.
Unfortunately I think this will be the catalyst for more racism. For some people it's more important to save face to than to reconsider that ildvways are wrong. They will double down on ignorance with a quickness.
Only an insecure person will hold on to their erroneous beliefs. Instead of expanding on their knowledge base, which would take effort on their part, they, unfortunately, would prefer to remain ignorant & pass their ignorance on to others, as well as berating anyone who isn't insecure, lazy, & equally ignorant. That is the reason #45 loves uneducated people; he is one.

@@bconni2 Really? You must have a different echo chamber - this is the first time I've heard some of these arguments and points and historical references. I learned something, that means I've been educated. You may not LIKE it, but that doesn't mean it's false.
Kimberlé Crenshaw sums up what CRT is looking at so well: "...what we are talking about is how our systems consistently reproduce that which is embedded in them". There is no reason to have fear of examining how the past affects us today, right? Cause of course we want to make it better, right? Or.... oh....um......
Boom. That's the power of CRT and, really, any critical thinking. It has the power to shine light on what is or isn't working in general. Sometimes everyone wants that. But if you shine light on where a system has failed a whole group/class/demographic of people...well, you know you've hit some truth when a certain set of powers that be literally make it their mission to demonize the word/term so that the general public freaks out about it (which is what has been admitted about CRT - "the goal is to run this campaign so well that when people hear CRT they automatically give it negative connotations even without knowing what it is")

Yes, I think it highlights the lack of logic in white people on fox incredulously saying "they're saying that suburbs are BAD?! They're saying our system is RACIST?! *Shocked Pikachu*" like, yes! Yes they are! Suburbs were overwhelmingly white because of redlining and segregation! Locked black people out of generational wealth which prevents them from passing on things like inheritance to their offspring/ grandkids that many white families take for granted. It's a ripple effect- emancipation didn't happen overnight and things haven't been hunky dory for the past 100 years, and housing discrimination still exists. Honestly it's like dealing with ostriches with their heads in the sand
Finally. I've been asking just exactly what Critical Race Theory is. Nobody could tell me. Thx, Roy.
Count on Roy to break it down simply and humorously.
It's never been hard to understand tho. Being able to think critically on race via theories on the justice system and its historical issues for those of color. It's not about white guilt, but there are white people who made it about that to further a racist karen I. E. victim narrative of this country's history of racism being truly taught to their children (and them being very afraid of that).
CRT is a marxist theory, it groups everyone in opressed and opressors. It will lead to more not less divide, it will lead to segregation and possibly even worse as my country experienced
I'd be curious to know who all these people are that you asked. No offence, but it's really not that complex.
The issue is that the past few months have distorted what CRT is, characterizing it as some BS that one of the commenters on this post said. It’s important to get the accurate information out with more frequency than the claims of fascism and the like.
FoxNews and their ilk would say that teaching Germans about anti-semitism in the 19th and 20th centuries if that media were present in that country.
I was introduced to CRT aa a part of diversity training at my command during President Obama’s second term. I believe this occurred after the incident at the Air Force Academy. It was an incredibly insightful and introspective experience for me. The administration that followed made a point of erasing anything that was accomplished by the 44th president, regardless whether or not it was a positive for their base.
Being measured on abilities and contribution instead of privilege is scary for some folks.
And in this war is peace love is hate world you live in white people have this privilege.
Loved this conversation.I just got educated by the best. Thanks Prof Crenshaw, and to Roy and CJ for facilitating.
Critical Race Theory is taking a look at the connections between race, history and the law, (taught in law school). Thanks CJ 👍💜

Without a doubt this conversation was the most thought provoking, authentic and f*"king honest factual on the topic I have had the pleasure to experience. The constant parade of adults crying, literally, was such a pathetic display of emotional misdirection. Thank you, Roy, Professor Crenshaw and CJ Hunt.
Go deeper if you dare. Does racism exist: absolutely. Is creating a victim culture of race, women, gender, etc., a way to resolve or a way for destruction? The one and only truth of CRT is the same as the one and only truth of all Marxist ideology: History is only oppressor and oppressed. Put in women, race, race, height, fat into CRT and boom! Instant victim. Watch institutionalized CRT at Evergreen, filmed by a student, Ben Boyce, over multiple years. You are white….You are racist. If you do not confess to racism… You are racist. If you question CRT….you are a racist. It’s a sick, divisive, myopic religion of victims, and nothing is easier than convincing people they are victims. I mean, if you think creating angry victims worked out well for Cambodia, Russia and China, more power to you.

I'm a retired teacher who wishes I was still in the classroom. When I taught school we didn't have the benefit of knowing about critical race theory, we just taught it without naming it. We taught it through the amazing stories of the people and their life experiences. What I wonder is if there will be enough black and white voters to prevent these Republicans from getting into office again in 2022.

For some reason, don’t knock down a confederate statue because of, “the proud history.” Teaching the history of segregation and slavery, is apparently unacceptable, though. Chinua Achebe, is not read as much as, “Heart of Darkness.” The proof is in the pudding.

We know this, which is why we don't teach it. Republicans will lose if people understood impacts from legislation. That is really what this is all about. People also do not want to feel like they are the beneficiaries of racism, even though all White people in the US absolutely are. Then you get to fixing it but that means providing even more help to those impacted negatively and it isn't fair.

The "playing dumb game" is getting old. How much longer must we wait for people to get it, to take the time to learn about CRT, and realize that If an adult has a difficult time understanding this theory, how can a child be expected to learn this. CRT is not being taught in the schools, especially in grade school. Teachers have enough work to do as teachers to be coming down on them for this. I'm glad I don't teach anymore. I worked in a high school where 80% of the kids were black, and it was horrible how the system works with the black students. whenever a teacher has discipline issues for example, with a kid, in this school, they would have the police show up. It was terrible! I really feel that public schools are like prisons --they even look like prisons. If I had any children, I would not turn them in to the public school system. I would do everything in my power either to learn to teach them myself, or move to another country where I can afford to pay a private school to teach them --Mexico or further down south.

Yeah but, the unveiling by science of the malignant intent behind much of public policy is a cause for concern for certain white people who don't want it discussed or looked, much less tackled.

But if you want to go to the foundations of our laws which were/are manipulated to keep the concentration of wealth in the hands of the powerful, watch this video (but only if you first watched the video you commented under, completely if you haven't).

@@abrahamflores2566 what you're not understanding is, you weren't burdened with generations of not just not being able to get ahead because of a poor nation but being in a wealthy nation and building successful towns with successful businesses that could have started gaining the wealth that you enjoy today. It's like everytime you reach the point you now enjoy, a group of people come and physically take it from you and everytime you rebuild its taken again. Then those same people set up laws that prevent you from amassing that wealth and this happens for centuries? What would your ambitions be then.
Continued Reconstruction would have left America a very different, better country, let's not make the same mistakes!
Too late they're already making them
Having grown up during the 60's and 70's and fighting for civil rights for all people regardless of race or gender, I thought because I was a politcal activist that I was not racist. But having grown up in a racist white home I never realized my white privilege. I have learned so much from watching your show and this episode has been especially enlightening. Keep it up please! So many of us want to help and we want to learn.
This podcast is so much deeper and more informative than The Daily Show... kudos to everyone at The Daily Show for realizing jokes aren't enough and creating this auxiliary show.
I really enjoy and appreciate these Beyond the Scenes. They offer interesting, valuable information and great conversation. Best thing you've done, Roy. Please keep them coming.
Fully support CRT. Preach and do what's needed to change for the better.
You support white guilt and a victim mentality amongst non-whites?
CRT is a marxist theory, it groups everyone in opressed and opressors. It will lead to more not less divide, it will lead to segregation.
CRT is meant to spread division and racial animosity. It flies in the face of everything MLK stood for.
White people need to give their money and resources to black people. Basically.
Roy is an absolute gem. I wish this was a separate RUclips channel so that I could subscribe separately and give Roy some love.
It's funny how merely trying to talk about Critical Race Theory proves that Critical Race Theory is not a theory anymore and how it's a FACT.
I feel like it never was a "theory", as much as a breakdown of how things actually got put together. The idea of even calling it a theory, as opposed to an academic revealing of hidden facts, lends the ability for it to be questioned, and portrays it as an optional version of historical truths.... when really, it's not an option. It's just, what's up.
It's like the theory of gravity. We can't see it but we know its effects and dire consequences for ppl.
@@dariusd2003 keep crying because you think your race is responsible for everything, it’s not. everyone will view you based on your merits, as they should, if you’re a talentless criminal, don’t be surprised when you end up in jail or unemployed or employed at mcdonald’s.
@@dariusd2003 please don't let "isucc"s response deter you and try not to let it bother you. I started writing that individual a scathing response to such an ignorant and inexperienced statement but then I remembered that it's better not to give folks like this any fuel at all.
@@dariusd2003 -Gravity is not a theory, it's a fact- crt is not fact, it's an opinion which doesn't hold up to reality, sorry.
Thank you all so much for always being informative, entertaining, and above all...inspiring.
Sometimes I am ashamed to be white, but it has nothing to do with CRT or what ancestors maybe possibly did. I'm ashamed because of how I see other white people behave when faced with an inconvenient truth.
I wish America wasn't so egotistical and would actually learn from other countries instead of being obsessed with the idea that America is the best and we know best about everything.
Especially when it comes to history. Just look at Germany, they educate their people about the horrors they caused during WW2, and it's not to make them hate themselves or teach them they come from evil, cause most of them don't. It's just to educate to improve life and prevent another tragedy from happen.
CRT isn't here to make white people hate themselves, it's just to learn about the past so that America can actually be the country it says it is and actually be equal and to prevent atrocities from the past from happening again.
If you ever get tired from self flagellating...check out ppl. like James Lindsay or Bret Weinstein. Progressives who are not regressive, liberals who are not illiberal, you know ppl. who really care for freedom and equality for all. And hopefully your back stops bleeding.
Excellent! Your comments about Germans and their near-obsession with teaching WW2 history are spot-on.
Accentuating the negative side of events while glossing over the positive is far from holistic learning.
Also, at the rate things are going right now, thanks to officials saying certain citizens are a threat to others simply for living, we are well on our way to establishing a new Weimar Republic.
If it makes you feel any better, these rappers and their followers make many Black people feel shame.
@@WAEVOICE
Exactly how is CRT accentuating the negative while glossing over the positive?
Also, American history as it is taught now accentuates the positive while ignoring the negative...and pretty much excludes Black achievement.
Thank you so much for this panel, talking about CRT that is so important to us and our future!
This is SO clear and helpful . I watched it before when it was 1st on, and I'm watching it again and it brings more to light. I wish THIS clip would be shown in schools.
Roy Wood, Jr. REALLY shines in this format!
Thank all of you for clarifying this whole CRT issue...I had a basic understanding, but you guys have and excellent way of presenting the concept. In the news the information is so, so, so distorted or downright non-factual it is the reason white America, with they're inability to exercise critical thinking, is lost down the rabbit hole.
*their ability (possessive)

Thank you Professor Crenshaw and the Daily Show we are starting to wake up.
Absolutely amazing, How our black ancestors can speak from the graves with modern technology. The Internet has been such a blessing telling the truth about black American history. You can't rewrite history to fit your own narrative. Thank you Professor Crenshaw and the Daily show. Truth + Wisdom = Peace ✌ 🙏!!
Even the Korean management staff are call ing us N---S even your kids on instagram.. and banding everyone
Trevor did a great job taking over this show and Roy is now taking over my internet watching time with these segments. Love these! Please please continue!
Critical Race *needs* to be taught. Over 67 years I have not only come to see color but to appreciate it and the culture and background of the person. Sadly, so many are surprised and often cautious when this old white woman smiles at them or stops to compliment them on something they are wearing, or whatever.
This was soooo needed! Thank you for the education.
Roy, thank you for this important interview. I appreciate your approach and allowing plenty of time to explain about the foundation of CRT! I must share this!
I never heard of CRT until Faux news started crying about it. They brought it out for conversation - this has to have backfired for them. 😎
Not really. As a conservative I can tell you that CRT has mobilized a lot of independents and turned them against Democrats. I was a pessimist in regarding to 2022 and 2024, but if CRT continues to be on the forefront then I will remain optimistic the GOP will regain power.
@@MajorHenryL. So in other words, you're confident that right-wing propagandists will lie their way to success by continuing to miseducate their sheep. Got it.
We are currently learning about CRT. I am not sure why people freak about theory especially USA. Americans are always up in arms about every and anything.

@Man in the Moon 😆😆😆 You beat me to it! Wanted to write the same.
Some European once wrote, Americans are basically perpetual teenagers. We're an adolescent nation with the positives--like optimism and enthusiasm--and negatives like impulsiveness, mood swings and not cleaning up after ourselves. 😉 We want everyone to like us, but we're also insecure. We're brave one minute and bashful the next. We are obsessed with sports and hip hop. We think we know everything, but freak out when called out in class. You get the idea. I love my own teenagers like I love my country: without condition, but not without critique. 🇺🇸✊🏾
@@rachellerman9204 na not WE americans
And never to anyone’s actual benefit. People don’t get up in arms about pedophiles and abusers, but they get irate over stating that people of color and non who’re people need to be treated with equality.
This was so well done. Laughing and learning is the best.
I finally got some time to listen to this one, it's been on my list since I saw it posted. Really great conversation, I appreciate you sharing so I can better understand what this is about. Fantastic job as always!
They don’t like it because if they recognize and accept CRT, they’ll have to admit to themselves and everyone else what the truth really is.
100%
True
Instead of cryptic comments like this, why don't you show the problem and what your solution is. Worthless comment
@@abrahamflores2566 First off, this is definitely not cryptic. Second, I have to keep comments short and much more vague than I’d like because people don’t really read the comments of mine that do go into all the detail instead of just saying “truth” as a generalization.
Btw, notice which of my comments you landed on also. The shorter, forced to be more vague type.
Worthless reply.
@@abrahamflores2566 the problem would be shown in a course of CRT. Now do you get it?
Thanks for this episode. Schools are not the only place that students can learn CRT. There are many other avenues to teach CRT. At home, at church, in communities, Black owned media, etc.
Don't you mean schools aren't the ONLY place that students can learn CRT?
@@Greyareas27 I don't understand your comment- that's literally exactly what she said, word for word- "Schools are not the only place that students can learn CRT." Maybe I misunderstood your comment?
@@dannystarling1 No, thank you for pointing that out.
I don't disagree with your comment.I misinterpreted your point. The only thing a will add though, is that it's important for ALL Americans to learn the truth, not just black Americans. As long as the far-right can keep many white Americans ignorant of the truth, they will succeed at perpetuating racial inequality and injustice.
Roy woods Jr been that dude... Glad he's getting a lot more attention... Funny dude.. and EXTREMELY ON POINT...
The Thom Hartmann Show knows our history on race also! We are better/stronger TOGETHER!✊🏽✊🏼✊🏾✊🏿
I listen to Thom Hartmann a lot. He is very knowledgeable on many topics but his knowledge on racism is limited and basic.
Tom does pretty well, basically he has spoke much of the truth spoken on this video.
I have never had a video that has affected me so much. This is an amazing piece of work. Every black person should view this. I was not aware to the degree how embedded racism was in our society. I knew it was there,but not how much it affects my everyday life. It has shown me things the I do unconsciously. WOW
This episode is spectacular. Thank you for all of the work that you do to educate us. I will be reading her book to continue my education. THANK YOU.
Listened to this twice. So much info backed by facts.
Well said sister
What was your favorite fact?
There are no facts. Just assertions.
@@JayBtv1984 Don't be so quick to co-sign bru. Next thing you know she gonna be hijacking it like they did yoga. trust.
@DonkeyKing Sniffedsomehair The fact that you're discussing it makes it a fact. Clearly you didn't watch any or all of the video, so go educate yourself before speaking again.
Thanks to CRT I could start understanding why people think and feel so differently... 'cause what they live is so different. CRT tells you why these lived experiences are so different and it doesn't really depend on the individual's beliefs or values.

CRT is a marxist theory, it groups everyone in opressed and opressors. It will lead to more not less divide, it will lead to segregation
It does depend on the individual beliefs. That is what makes up cultures and the culture in this country is built on racism and like discussed in this video, those that are negatively impacted avoid it also, because that’s what they were taught to do. Hence a belief.
@@ronnie5329 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@DonkeyKing Sniffedsomehair what does that mean?
Why are they so offended by it? It’s truth and they are offended by the truth.
nope. we just don’t want our children taught history that is in the process of unfolding, there’s no way for us to know what happened or is happening. there’s no way to know if it’s true or not. teaching children something, whether it’s true or not, to fix a societal problem. sounds like indoctrination but ok.
I just love the mix of seriousness with sharp witted bookends. I laughed, I cried, I learned. You three seem like a blast to hang out with. ❤️❤️❤️
This leftover food sandwich will nourish me for months to come! Thank you 🙏🏽!!!!
Professor Kimberlé Crenshaw is extremely impressive. I would love to hear her in a podcast with Bari Weiss.
Much like communism, sounds great in theory. In practice, it’s division and racism. The one and only truth of CRT is the same as the one and only truth of all Marxist ideology: History is only oppressor and oppressed. Put in women, race, race, height, fat into CRT and boom! Instant victim. Watch institutionalized CRT at Evergreen, filmed by a student, Ben Boyce, over multiple years. You are white….You are racist. If you do not confess to racism… You are racist. If you question CRT….you are a racist. It’s a sick, divisive, myopic religion of victims, and nothing is easier than convincing people they are victims. It all came from the Frankfurt Institute and Max Horkheimer who coined the term, “Critical Theory.” It ain’t about history, it’s about revenge.
Bari weiss aint that smart....
@@oscarwarren469 Well a lot of people disagree with you. She is getting a lot of high-quality support and attention and she is a critic of CRT. Would be an interesting discussion.
Are you high?
She is right about allies denying it. Denzel Washington and Morgan Freeman have said many times that they think we should stop talking about racism.... And they both played in a movie(glory) about institutional Racism 🤯
They were talking about an idealized world where race was not a thing. A world where they (or I) would be seen not as a black man, but just as a man. But we all know that is an impossibility and will never be a reality.
Do YOU believe that the real problem is not those who perpetuate racism itself, but is instead those who insist on talking about it?
@@Greyareas27
Im not saying they are the reason for this. I'm saying their words are used by the perpetrators to dismiss the reality of what's going on.
@@THATBOISHAD I do agree with that.
The only things that will go away if you ignore them is teeth.
These men have the status of celebrity ie honorary oppersorers
This was great, and Roy is my favorite cast member on the Trevor Noah Show! ☻
Thank you, Roy, for hosting this conversation, and bringing this into the light. We need more of this
The absolute BEST! Again, Beyond the Scenes is a treasure trove.
