#ABCNews #ThisWeek #CriticalRaceTheory
The United States is breaking apart on racial, cultural and religious lines and the mainstream media are accelerating the process.
If the media are controlled by the people in power ... and their playbook is divide and conquer ... then ... the media's job is to make sure divisions are enhanced, dramatized and never reconciled.
Meanwhile ... the real root of the problem is economic inequality which is rarely addressed.
Media intends to divide us ... and fan the flames ... always.
@Newbuild Muse Yeah China is very welcoming to people of all races and religions. When did the CCP take over the media in the United States and pit citizens against each other? Seems like CCP lies and propaganda is working well.
Journalism is the first draft of history. from Philip L. Graham
@@QTEPYE Where the press is free and every man able to read,all is safe. : Thomas Jefferson... We now have a controlled and censored media. This is not a free press and and it appears the media has been hijacked and taken over by multi national corporations. The media has been infiltrated by everything from the Chinese Communist party to the owners of huge global corporations.
@Newbuild Muse lmao we have a CCP apologist (most likely paid to be one) trying to tell people their genocide in Xinjiang is no different from different political parties in the US talking about CRT
I love that this conversation was about professionals debating the actual theory and implementation of it in a practical way. This is as opposed to unqualified people shouting propaganda without getting into any level of nuance. This is how news should be!
I don’t expect Americans to be able to comprehend racism in the modern days , kids today think racism is part of cancel culture or a political campaign
@@JaySantanaofficial "Fighting racism" has often been used as a bludgeon and pretext for things that are nothing of the sort.
They missed the entire point about what the Democrat party has done to African American for 100 years. You obviously don't know and have bought the BS
Did you learn anything though?

Thanks for giving Glenn Loury a platform
Really ? He sells his race out with BS a arguments and doesn’t want to talk about race …. Are you serious …. Go learn history dummy
"Sells his race out" Get a grip
@@stephdrake2521 The precursor to racism is the categorization of groups into races. Glenn is incredibly smart by emphasizing the American category to which we belong to.
@@stephdrake2521 “Sells his race out.” Sounds like you’re being brainwashed by CNN. Black intellectuals like Glen Loury, Ayishat Akanbi, Thomas Sowell, John McWhorter, John Wood, Coleman Hughes, Kmele Foster, and Chloe Valdary are the leaders that will bring about the change our world needs. 🙏🏽
@@stephdrake2521 you’re a joke
Glenn is the man. Been watching his podcast for years.
Glen is knowingly not telling the truth. Both Mexico and the UK ended slavery before the United States. Slavery was actually going on in the United at the time of the outbreak of World War II. Read US attorney General Circular 3591 dating 12/14/1941 asking US attorneys to prosecute continued slavery. My grandfather was Director of Negro Labor for the State of Florida during WW1. His job was to investigate continued slavery. Slavery did not end in 1865. That is an American myth. A simple Google search will prove the truth of what I am saying.
@@JohnArmwood and where was this slavery taking place in the United States?
@@JohnArmwood what the hell are you talking about?
@wolfman02 HAaaaa. I laughed when he said that right after downplaying how uniquely American chattel slavery was. He furthered embarrassed himself by quoting King, as conservatives do, only to be draw a fuller picture of King and walk it back. Dr. Loury is a smart fool.
@@JohnArmwood White slavery was not ended until 1904. International Agreement for the Suppression of the White Slave Traffic, signed at Paris on 18 May 1904.

They are also included in CRT dummy
@@stephdrake2521 yeah it's always " white man bad" I'm native and I get it. We were screwed over by the federal government. But our tribes are plagued with drug and alcohol addiction. Along with self pity. We need to gather together to pull ourselves up
@@rickDArula Natives are still getting their land stolen from them and their rights trampled on, im in disbelif that you would think the solution isnt to educate the entire nation on how the system has failed them, but instead natives "coming together" is the answer. Ummm natives are already unified "together" but you cant fight USA power alone.
@@deepseadarew6012 have you been to the reservation? Most ofy people are constantly high as a kite or drunk to do anything. Food stamps and poverty is all we know. Even our tribal leaders are corrupt sometimes. America already knows the atrocities of natives. But don't speak on what is actually happening at the reservation
@@deepseadarew6012 natives are unified in complaining but not changing anything.
All I’m saying is teach real history. Definitely against children in elementary or middle school learning about it. There are ways to teach without shaming. Germans are an example. They get taught truth about the holocaust. Today’s generations know they aren’t at fault, they know it was their ancestors & they learn to prevent history from repeating itself
@wolfman02 CRT is just an ideology at the end of the day . The creators of the theory literally say that in their writings !
CRT isn't just history it's cultural Marxism.
@@Kick_Rocks so you want banned from being taught in college? 🤔
@@JohnSmith-iu3ui but no K-12 school in the United States is teaching CRT 🤷
@@Mr._Moderate also , I have a textbook of CRT with me at home ,and a lot of it (100%) does align with what’s going on in schools(and with BlackLivesMatter) as well e.g ‘whiteness’ , ‘white supremacy’ , ‘privilege’ , ‘model minority’ etc .
So please , don’t play this stupid game with me
Ironically what neither the academics or George Stephanopolis mentioned is that anti-intellectualism legislation (laws specifying what can and cannot be taught) means that conversations like this one could one day be illegal in certain states
Such laws would be defeated in the supreme court: under the first amendment, the government cannot legislate what. the free press says. They *can* ban what publicly-funded schools teach, though.
To be anti Intellectual, the CRT being banned would have to first be "intellectual." It's actually just a conspiracy theory. Or as a wiseguy might remark, an Africanspiracy Theory.
Absolutely
As much as I dislike having to watch anything coming from mainstream media, e.g., ABC (but there was a time . . . I gladly watched Peter Jennings deliver news reports), I wholeheartedly appreciate ABC's reaching out to Glenn Loury.
He is a gem for the country - full stop.
He should be tapped by ANY administration for advice and wisdom on matters of race, society, and economics.
he's smart but a dumb person
@@dxd15-u1j let me guess: This is because he is not a victim right?? 🤔🤔🤔
@@mitchpeter5718 Because he offer empty words and no solution just like you. How is he different than bimbos in beauty pageants saying: " I hope for love and peace all of the word" Disney crap. Real problems need real solutions. So what your solution. We know Leroy solution doesn't have one and just wants to yap about it.
@@walan31I understand that criticism. Glenn isn't exactly a font of political policy advocacy. He mostly interrogates and criticizes the proposed solutions of others. It would be more helpful if he would provide a subsitute idea. If I may, though, I'd suggest that his ideas are probably to stay the course we've been on historically the past 60 years. A "colorblind" approach to law, economics, and society has produced a great diminishment in racist views over those years, so much so that the current antiracist initiative has been successful. Only a generation of people so terrified of the existence of racism could begin to analyze its presence on basic day-to-day unconscious occurrences. The fight against it has become "root and stem" targeting things like unintentional microaggressions rather than overt instances. Perhaps our pre-existing "colorblind" approach has been incredibly successful but we just haven't given it enough time to fully work it's way through society. That 'irrespective of race' approach hasn't hardly made it a full generation and we elected a black American to the highest office in the nation but now many are rejecting that approach to instead return to racial tribalism and an insistence that we all focus on our race as an important and essential aspect of our being.
@@walan31 Just “asking for a friend”...did you finish junior high?
"America is so racist" says black two term US President.
And look at all the crap he had to take from all the racist in America. And how long did it take us to get there? It took the Democrats getting us our first non-white president and now our first non-black non-male vice president.
The racism is strong in this country.

He was a Black Marxist.

@Fook Yuu the real problem is genetically inherited.
@Fook Yuu Speaking of poverty and education...black people are not educated in socialism and communism in America. Critical Race Theory does not cover the history of socialism in black history and neither does a-critical white history in the lay out of American history, is a giant defect in the theory.
Literally, 100 years of communism in most countries in the world and the American public, black and white, are not competent in socialism. They are interested in it. Heard about it. But cannot explain or understand it. Americans do not know anything about all the changes that have happened in the socialist world since the Russian Revolution! I find this shocking. The American system of education has blocked out the American people from participating in this historic subject!
The subject teaches people how to act for themselves as a social class and without it, the exploitation people will experience by capitalism is an eternal suffering and yearning against the subjective and personal exploitation of giving and never receiving.
One person alone cannot bring justice into the world. Therefore, theory is of the utmost pre-eminent importance. The paradox the American people present as the first nation in all history that can create a true worker's democracy but cannot because it is educationally incompetent about socialism.
Poverty in education is to me the teaching of subjects as compartmentalized and bell driven, a form of mental exploitation the Department of Education in the US, together wth the monopolistic publishers, and the higher education academics, impose on young minds a form of indoctrination disguised as education in the subject area of social sciences. As if the Department of Education is the arm of the State department reinforcing anti-communism for the last 75 years.
The poverty is in the Mind. Compartmentalized education inculcates the mind with static, non-integrated, thinking, and conforms to capitalist manufacture and factory production in its routinization and standardization. Thus creating a proletariat subservient to capital and a class inequality I claim is the real issue but the root of that issue is poverty and education,---you are correct.
This will be a great historical tragedy to go down as the first and only nation that does not know what a worker's democracy and socialism are?
Finally....SANE people debating the issue.
I know! Stunning. Almost shocking.
Racism is taught at home. Kids aren't born racist.
Nope. Now there teaching it at school. Have you been paying attention?
It is certainly true that kids are not born racist. But a new form of racism is taught in schools and on CNN, MSNBC, Disney Channel, Nickelodeon, etc. It has been pushed by psuedo-intellectuals in education and praised by the News Media. I mean how much praise has been thrust upon the 1619 project; despite the documented inaccuracies within it. It was fact-checked before it was published and they still put it out and then praised it. Journalism is dead when almost all them vote the same way.
Don’t forget the public schools. They’re the biggest perpetrator in racist thought. Well, at least in states where CRT hasn’t been banned…yet.
Actually, children do have intrinsic racial bias. The white kid always picks the white doll.
@@JohnSmith-hs1hn that's not indication of a bias. The vast majority of all families around these kids are not mixed race. Most girls don't pick a doll as a friend but instead to pretend to be mommy to.
When it comes to items not chosen for this purpose such as Disney Princesses the black princess Tiana ranks high in priority for white girls as well as children of all races.
You are taking a fact and then communicating some idiot's interpretation of it. Don't do that.
Dividing us for more power:
they speak of people in groups and use divisive language. But never individuals that should take personal responsibility & pursue character and values...

Was there a time when we were all united? To my knowledge Americans have always been divided.

Its not about skin color. Its a spiritual battle. Good vs evil. Right vs wrong. Love vs hate. Anyone who keeps racism alive isn't on the side of love. What does living in the past do? Keeps people angry. That is the point. These powerful elites don't want us United. Wake up people. Overcome the past and let's live for today. Emotional vs logical.
"Where do we go from here?" -MLK
Good question, and the answer is what Glenn is proposing.
Where so we go from here. We treat people based on the content of their character instead of the color of their skin. Mlk
Glen did not propose anything, he just is afraid to upset any white people.
What you dummies miss is that MLK had concrete purpose and frameworks for understanding what the problems where and where to go. “Where do we go from here?” was a title, not that he was confused about how to figure it out or needed someone else to answer. A lot of that framework is embedded within ideas represented in critical race theory.
MLK intentionally talked about race and specific policy needed to improve for African Americans and all Americans. Glen Loury is softly suggesting what Obama stupidly said: “a rising tide lifts all boats.” CRT enables us to see and understand pirates that are plundering or sabotaging some of those boats. Also MLK in 1967 mentioned that the race problem won’t get better simply with time. You can infer that he wouldn’t agree with not talking about race and fixing “all of America” would address the race problem.
@@EbonySeraphim don't you dare insinuate mlk would support critical race theory. That is an insult to his memory, and you should be ashamed about putting your harmful rhetoric on his name.

@Michael Fortune don't ignore it, but do it in a way that brings us together. I argue this does not.
You should learn what CRT is, where's it actually being, and read some its decades discourse from those who wrote about it. If you did, you'd know how misguided your conclusion is.

Only the political elders can have a non stop debate about teaching something the the kids have been learning online for the last three years.... Late as usual... In political circles it's been labeled political race theory... In the rest of the world it's called history, and the children are already learning it. The real reason why its a debate is because the kids know the truth, but the teachers keep wasting their time with half truths, hours of Benjamin Franklin stories, and calling it history. This is why the kids are giving their teachers the side eye.

Media only reflects on what people are doing, and the efforts to resolve the issues (unless you are watching certain talking heads on Fox which have their own agenda).

Academics weave their opinions into most everything. History is in the past. It has already been written. If we cannot look at Native American history, Black American history and then learn from the mistakes then people are fools. However, blaming people will never work and will never get the point across. Teaching a history class is a lot more than reading what happened. It is understanding the how and the why, and not throwing the race card around because it is the flavor of the month. Teaching children is not lecturing them and saying this is how it is. It is a guided discussion and asking opinions of your students. It is not what most are trying to push. We will see people pulling their children out of public schools by the millions if this so called theory is allowed. Intelligent people want to learn, not be told they are the cause of someones problems because of their race. As adults we should know better. We all know what happened to Native Americans , Black Americans and even Asian Americans was terrible. White folks were also treated badly throughout history. No one was immune. If the United States is such a terrible place why stay? Do not feel badly because of who you are. It is up all of us to make this country a better place. It starts with you and your little two foot circle you control. Peace.
God Bless América. Malcolm X said that there Is nothing a white person can do to help the black cause.
This is definitely true. Black people will need to look into themselves to overcome history. White people cannot solve the problem either by teaching critical race theory, reparations, or Juneteenth.
I liked a lot of things Malcolm X said...but this one I don't agree with. It sometimes takes a village to right a wrong.
There is a principal

I'm a 15-year-old black male teen and I understand the mindset of many of you rightest you think there's little or no problems with race unless you yourself are racist and equalities the issue. one out of these two is correct equalities the issue, yes but when you have the opportunity to move PRIVATE schools because of something a teacher said you didn't like that is a privilege, and no I'm neither Left nor Right but of course, I'll have to vote for the sake of my life and open-minded citizens. and having these separations Left, Right, Black, White is part of the problem. and black lives matter doesn't mean only people of melanization tent but oppressed individuals and if "minorities" aren't oppressed then why are there so many melanized people trying to be in the entertainment industries and not business not by choice but by history and lack of better mindset and options and this is a poor example compared to the reason why there's so much dysfunction in minority communities is because of privilege aka lighter-skinned individuals getting jobs in times when times were there worst in American that's how these low-income societies came, about instead of downing the school's system how about downing the economical system just-food for thought.

But teaching people a whitewashed, sanitized version of history that largely ignores the black experience isn’t the solution either. It would be great if we lived in a society where race hasn’t or still doesn’t matter, but it does. And teaching people about that is important for progress.

It still sound like you’re trying to sanitize America’s history. America has, historically
categorized people and treated people differently based on their perceived race. Its just simply part of our reality, and it still sounds like you’re trying to avoid conversations about it.

The amount of hatred that exists and groups that exist reminds me of the 60's. Would this not indicate that the hatred never really left and was simply simmering under the surface?
Wouldn't it be great to understand why people hated someone else who didn't do anything to them and wishes no ill-will upon them (regardless of what Ted Cruz says)?
Where does it say "they actually argue that people alive today are responsible for what their long dead ancestors did"? Seriously, where is that being taught? Please don't reference some fear mongering politician, that doesn't count. Perhaps it's in some online courseware? Someone saying so doesn't count either.
@chaotic neutral Even the language of the wage gap is a bit odd to me. There are all sorts of wage gaps. Whites are not at the top in wages. Asians have the highest wages in this country, more than whites. And there are wage gaps between black people of different ethnic backgrounds, just as there are for whites. There's a probably a sizeable wage gap between Jewish white people and non-Jewish white people.

A surprisingly good discussion, gives me hope for the news
The narrative is key. The end result of any discussion on race should be a more accurate understanding of American history and fighting against discriminatory policies. The goal should not result in legislation to create a perpetually protected class of people, an infantilization, essentially labeling us as damaged goods.
Well said, sir!
I agree with you on some of the things you said. What is the discriminatory policy that you're saying?
@@tyronekim3506 any policy with implicit bias, such as criminal justice, bank loans, housing, etc. To be more effective and not to pit one race against the other, it should be sold as fighting discrimination. Race is in the heart and it connotes evil intent. Many of the current biased practices and policies take root in proposals made generations ago, in a different climate. To ascribe nefarious intent to the current purveyors of those polices, solely because of their being in positions of authority is not only wrong, but counterproductive.
@@marcrankin1707 I disagree. Implicit bias is bias at an individual level, not at an institutional level. If there is racial bias or policy at an institutional level, there is remedy at law for that at state, federal and local level. There is no institutional racism. There is no systemic racism. There are individuals who are racists in of walks of life and in all work places.
Be safe and in good health.
@@tyronekim3506 I don’t think we disagree, just talking past one another as people often do. It’s not an all or nothing issue. Each individual is responsible for his or her own actions. At the same time, the culture of any organization is set at the top. If you take over ownership of an historic bank where there were predatory lending policies towards minorities for years, (eg. Wells Fargo) you as the CEO may not be racist, but if the programs in place are profitable, you won’t have any impetus to recognize the problem, let alone change policy. If you are promoted to chief of a police force where the state receives federal funding through a war-on-drug program that historically disproportionately targets the minority community, your inclination as a new leader is to prove to the rank-in-file police that you can man the ship and not rock the boat, again maintaining the status quo. In the aforementioned scenarios, you don’t have to attribute malicious intent on the leadership, rather bring to their attention the discriminatory policies.

Well my children are being taught the real history of America at home and they ask more questions than ever. I love it!
What do you teach them?I recall watching a western after playing cowboys and Indians - as kids we didn't know any better, until my father simply explained that people from our country became Americans and took the Native North Americans' land. He did it in a sentence and it utterly changed my outlook.
@@pauldh62 I give them research information to look up on various ideas they are interested and have them explain it to me. Such as, the civil rights movement.
@@pauldh62 Did your dad also explain to whom the land “belonged” before being conquered by the Indians who were then in turn conquered by the Whites there? Because if not, isn’t that technically revisionist history?
@@eS-ql7vm I will answer your question as directly as I can. You have to bear in mind he was talking to a child of about five years, so he kept what he said brief and simple. He didn't, for instance, go into detail about how the Lakota came out of the woods and attacked the lands of the Pawnee and Chipowa. This is used by white people to justify the breaking of treaties and the near obliteration of Native North Americans, neither did he cite the various dubious challenges to the theory that America's native population, North and South, were derived from the Clovis people. This was partly owing to the fact as I said above, he had to keep it brief and simple, and also due to the fact that some of these theories were not about at the time. What was present at the time was a huge misunderstanding, propagated by Hollywood and later challenged by Marlon Brando, that Native North Americans, mistakenly referred to as Indians, were brutal savage attackers with no cause or justification for the desperate war they were fighting. If the Wehrmacht had successfully landed in England, do you think I would be preoccupied with the Battle of Hastings or dark ages Saxon raids on Romano Celts? Let's get a bit of perspective here.
@@pauldh62 you would be if you were interested in understanding your place in the broader context of history and not moving the goalposts to a place most convenient for political grandstanding, that’s for sure!

The interview started wrong. ”How would you define critical race theory?" It is already defined; it is a theory that states what it states. The problem is that people are extracting what they want from it, leaving behind how contradictory and racist is the rest of its content. At this point, please go and read it and then get to a conclusion. That is what I did, and trust me when I said it is very unsettling if we take this theory for granted.
The biggest problem is it starts with a premise taken from Karl Marx and Antonio Gramsci's ideas on cultural marxism. At what point do we start saying no to all this "forced" education from any group that has a "grievance." The feminist, the gays, asians, the native americans etc...
Mao of China took the approach of cultural marxism by using political correctness. Basically, young children were told to tell government officials on even there parents if parents weren't in line with the government thought process.
@@bromack3 You are right; this is the same divisionist argument totalitarians make. They put themselves in a moral superiority that disqualifies any contrary opinion. You don't get communism because you are not a communist. Now, you don't get CRT because you are not black. WTF????
What’s hilarious is that leftists are accusing conservatives of not being educated on the source material, when they themselves get their “education” from other news outlets and celebrities whom they deem authoritative.
@@hassanarteaga3030 yes because most black people wants white people to know what they go through when they try to do different things. Like most of white people see black people as criminals and uneducated which is wrong. There are still documents of racist laws until today even the damn bank redlines the black neighbourhood diverting investors away from them and refusing to give people loans that lives in that redline that's systematic gerrymandering votes that's systematic too. A guy spends 40 years in prison just to be found innocent and they can't release him because of a law that prevents minorities of being cleared from false accusations he is in a wheelchair aswell. So let's stop pretending that our grandparents didn't design a racist system to benefit white folks
So you are ok with the postulate that every black person is oppressed and every white person is an oppressor? A black dude raised me; he is my father in every therm except for the biological. If I tell him this, he will smash my head against a table and call me racist. Because this is what this theory is, RACIST. It is putting a tag on people based on the color of their skin. It is not about teaching history; it is about teaching that terrible idea that your skin color defines your character and your future. You are talking about banks and loans, and it doesn't make sense. You are telling me that a banker does not want to make money? Do you think a black individual with a good credit score won't get a loan from any bank? Don't you think that money acts based on profit? Would you risk your money in a black community where businesses failed to thrive? If we make every argument a racist one, we are f...d up as a country. We need to empower minority communities by breaking with the victim mentality, which almost always justified walking on the wrong side of the law instead of walking a successful path. Look at the jews; strive for that. I surely do.
Disclaimer: I am a Latino guy that has suffered from racist jerks, and some of them were blacks.
The thing that made me uneasy about CRT is when I started hearing this “Anti-Racist” term. Referring to the argument that in order to correct past racism we need to practice current racism to balance it out. This is a very slippery slope
@@raymondsweet4316 I don’t watch right wing news so I wouldn’t know. And i know the term may not be in the actual literature but they way I see it the term derived from the ideology, which lately, I have been reading a lot about. Doesn’t racism make you uncomfortable as well or are you just fine with it?
And a slope yiu will not find yourself on unless you choose the course as a law student and as an ELECTIVE. Republicans are using this to gear up their base and fire up their racial fears and subconscious desires for supremacy. This is not taught anywhere the typical person would find themselves. Like the boogie man is not under everybody's bed.
Jurisprudent from Germany here. I personally think CRT is absolutely horrible.
It works under the assumption that racist laws in the past still have an effect on today's generations. Which isn't wrong. Obviously stuff like "red lining" seriously dispossessed black people and influenced the wealth of future generations as well.
But instead of acknowledging that by adhering to equality in the face of law and by making law that doesn't look at arbitrary categories like race or sexual orientations we will reach (and already have reached) equality of opportunity for the individual they want equality of outcome NOW. Again, fair enough. Perfectly reasonable on first sight.
But here's what's bothering me with this: to achieve this the theory suggests that law that doesn't make race a central point is unjust. Because law has to rectify those wrongs of the past. So they suggest to make racial based law again. Which is reinstating legal racism. By definition. It's absolute nonsense. Why can't we acknowledge that we already have a neutral legal system now, a system that ensures equality of opportunity? Why don't we let this play out for a couple of more generations to see where this leads towards? I don't get it. This theory is throwing the achievement of having a non racial based legal system over board again, therefore degressing. It's a very, very bad idea. There is a reason that lady Justice has a blindfold.
In Germany we face the same line of thinking when it comes to women. It's also based on the same logical fallacies. You can't break basic legal principles to generate some form of compensatory justice for past wrongs. This will make everything infinitely worse. What law has to do is ensuring equality of opportunity and then let things play out. That's the best and only thing it can do without becoming tyrannical and inherently unjust again.
Anyways, my two cents regarding this. If anyone bothers to read this let me know what you guys think about this and if I got anything wrong. Have a nice one guys!
Let me add this:
A former German judge of the Supreme Court (Boeckenfoerde) has made a very famous statement that roughly translates to:
"The free secular state has necessities for it to exist and prevail that it itself can't provide or enforce."
What he meant by it is that a democratic state under the rule of law can't force people to uphold certain values and can't force people to have a healthy societal dialogue. That's the responsibility of the people themselves. Because the moment the state tries to enforce stuff like this per law it becomes authoritarian therefore abolishing itself. It can't be a free democratic state under the rule of law AND enforce the people to think a certain way and to uphold certain values. It's a Paradoxon in some way.
I think the same is true for the whole CRT thing. You can't reach a fair and just legal system by giving up being neutral and fair regardless of race or any other arbitrary category. The moment you do this the law becomes tyrannical.
@@mommolette3607 you are absolutely right that in the mainstream discourse about it it gets inflated with absurd "woke" concepts to conveniently debunk it. Which is intellectually dishonest.

@@galanis38 First off, Leah Wright Rigueur explains where CRT is located in the academy and the first thing that Glen Loury comes back with is "I think the definition is fine as far as it goes." The most roundabout expression of nothing. Either she defined it correctly or she didn't; don't play this passe game. Then both Loury and McWhorter have never read an ounce of nationalist theory; if they had, they would understand that national history is a bifurcated and bifurcating act. It brings things together to promote the nation-state as an imagined community that sees everyone as part of the community, but it pushes away the historical elements that undermine and challenge that history. And when you start to look that those marginalized elements you can't help but rethink the history. Neither Loury nor McWhorter are historians and seems to not had to have study history in their exams by the way they talk. That's what makes them sad excuses for professors and academics.

For the first time both sides and very valid arguments very collegial and intelligent discussion on this topic
Critical race is not about race. It is clash of social norms that separates based on culture, not race.
do we really need a race discussion in schools??
Glenn is a true patriot
Glenn Loury is one of the smartest men living today. I'm shocked ABC even let me talk.
It's easy to agree with both of these people. This wasn't a conversation about CRT, though.
I got on some ish tonight and I'm so glad I found this. I'm going to share this with all my people. This is what "woke" really is. Let's talk about race but not let it be the division between us.
It's been the division between us every since the Constitution was written. Nothing has changed but the date.
7:00 I think Leah has it right. Some things they said would have to be unpacked or explained, though.
word sald for a contemporary media short clip, she says yes MLK was correct BUT... theres no BUT MLKs statement in context was a discussion about there is always work that needs to be done, if you read Leahs work you will see the #REGRESSIVE thoughts she teaches.. Glenn understands the narrative being painted by CRT is the issue
The history of slavery in America:
The British installed it.
The Founders curtailed it.
The Democrats expanded and defended it.
The Republicans ended it.
Any more questions?
Slavery was never “ended”…big fail!
@Sven M ... Curtailed it how???? You mean expanded & protected it, surely.
Slavery was the backbone of the Founders' (our) economy, after all. The US profited enough from generations of enslaved people to help us divest from the British who funded the trading of people in the first place.
Then we stole the profits & other contributions from those enslaved people (both Democrats AND Republicans did/do this), & the Republicans-turned-Democrats set the enslaved free w/o so much as a meal ticket or a doctor visit and never, ever paid them back. No need to pat yourself on the back so hard 🤣🤣🤣
See CRT would help teach people this 😂😂😂 too bad we're not teaching it anywhere other than LAW school
@@kenny6421 Yes it did, in 1865. CRT is a historically illiterate Conspiracy Theory
@@ambriaashley3383 The Founders curtailed it. CRT is a historically illiterate conspiracy theory:
>Slavery abolished in every state north of Maryland by 1804.
>Slave trade abolished 1808
>Slavery banned in the Northwest Territories 1787.
>In 1780, legislation banned Americans from employment/investment in slave trade
>In 1794 Congress barred American ships from the slave trade
@@ambriaashley3383 And no, slavery didn't build America. Unless you can point me to the cotton skyscrapers, there's no evidence of it.
The free North was richer than the slave south (debunking CRT) and the fastest economic growth occurred after the abolition of slavery (debunking CRT) and places with far more slaves in South and Central America are poorer, when if CRT was true, they'd be richer (debunking CRT).
America: Our worst critics prefer to stay.
Barely scratched the surface for it to be as "illuminating" as Stephanopolous touts here. They have no real time to dig into the discussion. Glen has a show, maybe he can invite her on so we can really hear a fleshing out of the nuanced details.
How can you be against something if you don't even know what it is
