Lately there’s a phrase that news organizations have been throwing around a lot: “Critical Race Theory.” Everyone is saying it, but no one seems to be able to agree on what it is. How did we get to a point where everyone is saying a phrase they can’t even define? Let’s find out, in a segment called, “How Did We Get Here?”
Show Synopsis: Amber showcases her signature smart-and-silly take on the news of the week, responding to it all with a charming, late-night mix of seriousness, nonsense, and evening gowns.

Most people who have heard of George Washington Carver have no idea how remarkably he contributed to life and food the way we know it today, they think he's the guy that invented peanut butter. So sad.
And he's only one of the few whose name was written down. Makes me wonder about all the other names that were lost because they were considered property.
The worst part is that he didn't even invent peanut butter :(
@@note9er yeah, how did that "fact" happen?
I did a report about him in the third grade. Probably because in my 8-9 year old mind, having two names in common with the first U.S. president was intriguing.
@@Akilahfoye Okkaayy!!
And let’s learn also about Native Americans!!
The Indian boarding school policy made it law after forcing natives off their land onto reservations. But they don’t teach about those things or the trail of broken treaties that the government made with Native tribes that is still been done to this day. Sad that people want to run from our past instead of just grappling with it and learning from it.
@@tasha8102 No one is running from the past!! We all know what happened!!
Trust me,even the native Americans are sick of you reminding us
And short people!

Textbooks and curriculum is absolutely huge business for companies in conjunction with school districts and universities. Companies literally place bids for the privilege to have their textbooks used in schools districts because they know the power of controlling information. A lot of these books are rife with inaccuracies about what really happened because they want it that way.
Can you please cite me some references or sources on the subject so I can educate myself. What is the evidence to support your claim? Claim "Companies literally place bids for the privilege to have their textbooks used in schools districts"
@@dustinwhite8158 Look up Texas books, and why they're donated to by the daughter's of the confederacy.
You should go read "Surely you're joking Mr. Feynman", specifically the chapter entitled "Judging Books by Their Covers" in part 5, for some further enlightenment concerning how books are chosen by various State Curriculum Commissions.
@@paulboulanger5Um, how about something peer reviewed with a more recent publication date? This book is authored by a brilliant physicist but it is full of his opinions and speculations, and NOT one of his professional publications. Furthermore, he is a physicist that has nothing to do with writing curriculums for history or social science for any state in our country. Lastly, what does that have to do with Critical Race Theory which is being implemented into our school's curriculums right now?
just like todays news.
but all these people had no problem with the lost cause mythology being taught in school by the united daughters of the confederacy
This.
Isn't this what they call these days "whataboutism'? I've learned this word today on that NBC interview with Vladimir Putin.
Do Re stop watching NBC and start watching The Majority Report here on RUclips and channels like it. PLEASE, I Beg of You.
My district just skipped reconstruction completely. It was like, Yay! Appomattox. Next day was WWI. They refused to touch it.
“United daughters of confederacy”😭 like Dr.Umar said that’s their protective career
Sociology shows that people come to believe they have earned the luck and privilege they have. Once you get yours, you think you deserve it, above others. Then you don't want to be reminded of all that got you there, of the backs you walked on and continue to walk on to succeed.
So tell me, Suzy, whose back did Amber Ruffin walk on to get a late night gig?
That’s especially true of the most successful people.
Absolutely.
Yes we are all privileged, thanks for your input.

I am a white 68 year old woman from Ga. We we taught all about the evils of slavery when I was in school. I am confused when I hear people say that slavery is not taught in the school system.
I'm 65 and from Southern Maryland and we weren't taught about it in school and that's only part of the history. The rest is where laws and race interact and how that's harmed minorities.
Because they are just lying.
@@IExpectedBSJustNotThisMuchBS Did they teach the constitution or the civil war? Because you can't teach either without talking about slavery.

I was just about to write my local rep on Critical Race Theory, and I was doing some research today. I can believe the serendipity of this coming out the same day. It must be a sign I should write my rep on their backward views.
By all means 😎
I want to say so many things in support and agreement and then I realize you said it pretty completely. So I will just say your honesty and authenticity in satirical reporting is just what the world needs more of. Also, your bows get better every time and I am a crafter and I am secretly designing a collection of bows to send you.

There are several contradictions in what she is saying.... most people on the right are against CRT because it uses only the history that supports their political purposes. She correctly points out how southern dems taught their kids that the civil war wasn’t fought over slavery. Now dems are teaching kids that everything that ails them is due to slavery.

A rush to ban something, and they have no idea what it is.......🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
People need to understand critical theory and stop saying "but what about...?" Society isn't a vaccum where any situation can be argued in reverse.
Still none the wiser on Critical Race Theory. What is the theory? If it is critical race history why don’t they just call it that?
To scare the shxt out of people - knowledge is power.

That's what she wants
@@canman5060 -- I don't know where you get your information. A quick Google search showed me that at least 28 other countries ended slavery before the United States.
Being great is great.
One big problem with Critical Race Theory is branding. Maybe it would gain wider acceptance if we just gave it a simpler, more descriptive name, I dunno, maybe something like ACTUAL UNVARNISHED HISTORY.
The context is the problem for deniers. Not the title.
If we could just get a white person to give Amber's spiel it might sink into more white people's brains. I've seen many videos of white people at their school board meetings commenting on critical race theory, yet you can tell by their words they have NO idea what it actually is. They're proud of their rants and the comments under the video are PRAISING them. They just can't handle the scrutiny of their understanding of history....
P.S. I am also white, but I am embarrassed by people who cannot entertain the concept that it could be THEM that could be wrong, and who refuse to even look at the evidence.
Totally. It's clear that proponents of CRT have done a lousy job of selling it. All they have to do is tell the facts (the actual history of how minorities have been oppressed in various way) and dare anyone to try and justify or defend it. It would be akin to defending the nazis.
CRT is legal scholarship though. It looks specifically at the role of racism in US jurisprudence and legislation. Its not and was necessarily about history or the teaching of it. Thats why its studied by law students,aspiring lawyers. Not necessarily educators or aspiring educators.
History is written by the victor. To rewrite history, is to tell the truth.
Im 46 and i went through school with false history books
In that case, the truth is lost forever
Actually history is written by the survivors.
Go a little bit forward and then it's written by people that had no part in the battle.
Alexander the Great does write his history. We do.
To rewrite history is either the truth or fiction. In this case, half and half, and that's why it's getting banned.
@@havenbastion So, which part is ficrion, Kaiser?
Didn't know how awesome the teachers at Ruffner Middle School Norfolk VA were.
Bravo! Brilliantly succinct. Let's all learn the truth about our country's history, warts and all, starting with that mega-lie about Columbus' "heroic" voyage to discover America.
@ christine r Thank You! 😝
Or him "discovering" America(because it only counted when Europeans knew about it🙄)

Yup Columbus didn't discover America but those pesky vikings were here before the siberians or fake natives

And the stadium rises, in one loud roar, to give Amber the standing ovation she so clearly deserves. Well done.
These are metaphors for children 😂 it's actually sad the imagination you have
I hope more constituents in your country would watch this and vote accordingly. It is like if school kids in Germany wouldn't learn anything about the causes of WW I / WWII, what the third reich, and/or concentration camps were 🙄
In Germany, the people took responsibility for their actions (myth of the clean Wehrmacht notwithstanding) so that they wouldn't let it happen again. In America, we re-wrote all the history books and pretended everything was fine so that white folk wouldn't feel bad.

The only thing that makes Republicans sad about the history of slavery is that they were made to stop doing it.

I'll have to check it out. I've been reading Howard Zinns A People's history of The United States and It's pretty harsh in it's honest account of slavery.
I'm reading that book too! The info in it should be taught in schools.

@@patrickragland1032 It explores the history of the US while emphasizing what happened to the colonized, enslaved, exploited, and disenfranchised. In other words, the real history of the US.

@@bwenluck9812 don't get me wrong there plenty of stuff from 100 years ago we don't teach our kids but in our defense its easy coz we have 1000 years plus of game of thones style stuff to go at. But we should teach our less stellar/less removed stuff better.
And if I may add, also right the wrongs of it´s continuations. Settle the debt and move on.
The bills aim to ban it from schools from elementary to high school if I remember correctly. Thing is Critical race theory is only teached in Universities. Before that race relations are visited by some curriculum and the bills passed are taking aim at that by scaring ppl about CRT. Look it up or simply listen to Dr. Rashad Richey, he teaches the subject in Universities :P
Dr. Richey is truly a national treasure! Id love to see him rise in politics but spreading his knowledge teaching is also an invaluable asset too.
"Teached"??? It appears that more important things are being neglected in the schools and in the homes.
@@johnconway9882 I don't want to get into a pointless internet argument over your view that correct conjugation of irregular verbs is more important than fixing history education biases. I just want to point out that you're assuming that Dr. S is a native English speaker. Given that immigrants made up 13.7% of the 2019 US population, and also that RUclips comments are not part of anyone's writing portfolio, you really shouldn't jump to conclusions about the causes/significance of grammatical mistakes here.
@@MelodiousThunk I agree with your whole summation; however pointing out one's mistakes politely, is how WE all learn and grow.
@@kevinhanson6106 When done respectfully, yes. But John Conway's comment was disrespectful. Disrespectful attempts at correcting people tend to just make them defensive.
I'm almost 40 & went to hughschool in Northern IL & will gladly admit I'm just now learning so much of the truth of our history. The systematic suppression of minorities in our country is a huge part of our history & exactly why the founding fathers wrote the constitution to be amended when needed.

Maybe both sides misunderstand each other. We should have "Live" open discussions for all to watch from our experts.
What does that even mean?
Do you understand CRT? Even amber has no idea what they are talking about. Didn’t even try to explain it.
@@5th-Season You claim to be an expert. Please educate me or give me a link so I or anyone else reading this can learn.
@@TheBroncobeliever I was stating that something like CRT should be debated Live on the internet so everyone can see both sides. Like many things in this Republic, we did not get to vote and choose it to be a part of the hiring policies for government and also implemented into the curriculum at schools, usually under a term called equity.
So it’s ok to teach false history for over 100 years, but to teach accurate history is a problem and considered critical race theory.
This country has problems that won’t get solved until we honestly examine our past.
We could really become something special if we did.
Like what? What’s the end game? I love history, but is it really all that?
Interesting how when you ask someone if they're against CRT and they say yes, their answer to "Can you tell me what it is?" is no.
The average person does not need to know the chemical components of critical race theory to recognize it's ever-expanding stench.
@@CribNotes So you don’t know, either.
Anti-white race baiting. Pretty simple, and a stain on modern society

Yeah great delivery, but let’s not forget respect to all too often uncredited writers.
I swear i just thought this. Her thought provoking pieces are bring so much irony
You have a low threshold for brilliance then
Lincoln's Proclamation did free slaves in places where there was insurrection. It was a war measure. Don't dismiss the importance of Lincoln's political will in this matter.
The fact that this is even an issue attests to the huge problems with this country.
You must have not read the project or the core principles of crt.
The problem is that at one point the left and MLK was wanting people to judge others by their character which is how it should be, now the left is pushing schools to teach kids to judge each other on race... the left is taking us back 50 years
@Craig Snyder You clearly don’t know what crt is

Textbooks come from only three states, and one of them is Texas.
One of my biggest frustrations when I worked on books for classrooms was having to tailor history to mollify the Texas school system. I’m very sure the twisting and deleting to mollify (and sell books) is even worse now.
If textbooks cost $80-$100, or worse, $200-$300, then those textbooks better have wi-fi.
@@Marijuanifornia Those are college textbook prices. I see what you did there.
If that is true, then are they produced there or are they written there? Production of a textbook is much different then who wrote the contents.
@@dustinwhite8158 It isn't a matter of who wrote them or produced them, it's who they're written *for.* Texas is the largest textbook market in the US, and their awful curricula guidelines puts their thumb on the scale of textbooks nationwide...and they're backwards enough that just trying to keep creationism at bay keeps more than a few people quite busy.
This has only been out for one hour and five dislike. We know who needs some critical race theory.
You need some critical help.
You just want to be right and use CRT to justify
I think it should be mandatory in police training. Because it's the cops that have contributed to keeping racism alive in this country.
@@romaskincare9138 how?
@@OmegaMouse I’m open to your suggestions.
1) New York Times is a biased publication, so it’s ok to be skeptical 2) No one is denying slavery happened 3) No one should teach their kids to be ashamed of their race
Strawman. None of this is why most historians oppose 1619, nor why folks oppose CRT
@YogGroove Enlighten us....
Like everything in our polarized times, critique is strawmanned with the arguments of the worst 10 percent of people on the other side. This is how you know you're dealing with a person who has blue team religion (or red team religion) and has no ability or interest in understanding what is true.
This is my first exposure to Amber and it's already unimpressive on this front.
Historians take issue with 1619 over its inaccuracies that are core to its thesis. It argues that one of the primary reasons the colonists decided to declare their independence from Britain was because they wanted to protect the institution of slavery - an assertion that is not backed up by any evidence. Dissenting historians take issue with, in their words, "the displacement of historical understanding by ideology."

@@Challerz GOT EM!
What should also be taught in school is human migration. How we migrated for thousands of years..how we are all related ... how we changed.. how we are still changing. It's a very slow process
That information is with a Dr. Spencer Wells.
your kind conflates "migration" with colonization and oppression! yet they ban the migration of certain groups to places they colonized. go read a book!
Yeah, let’s just ignore 400 years of systemic racism. Let’s ignore the fact that without chattel slavery, the most brutal form of slavery, built this country. Let’s make white folks feel better.
That’s so off topic. Human migration is theoretical and can be debated forever. Critical Race Theory is factual. Yes, “theory” is in the name but everything is documented and verifiable.
@@SBC581 human migration is actually not a theoretical concept, it's factual. Oh And theory in the academic sense doesn't mean unverifiable. The every day use of the word theory and the use of it in the academic sense are quite different
the 1619 project was really eye opening for me. also, Amber's hair puffs are the most glorious I've ever seen!
What does a 1619 document have to do with your county {America} and its people nowadays? That was derived over 300 years ago. I am from Australia so I do not understand what is going on in the USA.
“The moment you say that any idea system is sacred, whether it's a religious belief system or a secular ideology, the moment you declare a set of ideas to be immune from criticism, satire, derision, or contempt, freedom of thought becomes impossible.”
I would recommend watching all four parts of "Exterminate the Brutes". It puts in to perspective what we all lost in order to gain what some have now.
And reading Heart of Darkness.
Even that is watered down.

In New Zealand we are currently working on refreshing our entire curriculum. In a country-wide meeting on the social sciences my main input was the statement that a change of power takes courage and often comes at a cost. Hopefully that makes it to the final document.
The New Zealand Histories draft is causing a great deal of kick-back. Partly it is those who don't want to admit to the racism of our past and present, but also from those who point out that the history of Aotearoa is not just 252 (and counting) years of interaction between two groups of people, but the multitude of interactions between multitudes of peoples.

Did you forget to mention that the 1619 project is shoddy scholarship? NHJ didn't even get the year correct.
Learned first hand that too many people would rather stay willfully ignorant about actual history. Especially if it encourages them to keep certain ill-founded beliefs a changing world are eroding.

It’s about time we talk about this
The more people in the US learn about the history of Slavery in this country, the better. Education IS power.
People are afraid of actual history BECAUSE education is power. It empowers people other than them.
Teach kids about tax laws, learning about slavery doesn't achieve anything.
How many people do you know don't know about slavery?
Every time a historian writes a history history is being rewritten.
Every state sets its own curriculum ,now I see why the country is Soo dysfunctional ...
How Did We Get Here is my favorite segment of all time. I wish Amber was on daily instead of weekly. This is vital information for everyone.
“What is CRT?” We don’t know? Well, let’s find quotes from actual people...
I was wondering what this was! And another wonderful Amber Ruffin suit…
Those who are bothered by CRT want history to be tailored to not hurt their feelings.
@Stevenson Chambers Are you kidding? After listening to several RUclips school board rants, parents don't even seem to realize it's related to History (and Law)....
Federalize public education!
Brilliantly done. Growing up in Texas we were taught that Texans won the Alamo. Which is batshit crazy logic.
Thanks for using your gifts of humor and insight to challenge us all to be part of solving problems rather than perpetuating them.
I’m not from the US, but this definitively seems like something that can apply to any country that has hurt entire people.
Dehumanizing ppl to the colour of their skin and not their character and achievments
And yet schools in America can barely even do this...so
5:23 See this is the issue. White people see BIPOC talking about the racism and discrimination they face and think they are bringing it up to make them feel horrible for them being white, when all we are trying to do is get you to understand that, not only should people not (have been) be treated this way, BUT that you should feel an urge to want to make sure that no one is treated like lesser than human. Its not about making YOU personally feel bad, but to attempt to invoke some emotion to want to cause a change and to stand w those people to help bring about said change. Yes you should feel bad, empathetically, not personally attacked.
It has the conservatives three scariest words all tied together. Think of that first word for instance. Could you imagine our country full of people who began learning to think critically say in the eighth grade. Conservatives would hold only about two seats in Congress both from Mississippi😂😂😂
Because liberals believe in such rational things 100% of the time
Crt is a misnomer
CRT sounds crazy didn't we go over this already?
The only problem with three project is that is Not History. It's factually inaccurate and more.
@Kaiser Basileus Well, where are the inaccuracies? And what is the "more" part?
Thank You! I’ve been stumped by the CRT term. It’s totally weird that I’m grateful to late night comedy people to help me be educated enough to make sense of general news issues but again and again you are so helpful. Thank you! ❤️
Wow. I am a bit disappointed that you all, like many media outlets, have continued to link the 1619 project directly to CRT without any real explanation of CRT. This video seems to syncretize CRT and the 1619 project. It's a different kind of misinformation that doesn't really help.
Rewriting gaslighted history isn't rewriting history, it is called healing. Moreover, the problem with slavery was human ownership. Rationalizing slaves were happy doesn't make it better.
Actually that is a bad thing what you’re endorsing.

This might be the most preposterous premise ever. She doesn’t understand what she’s talking about.
Why?
7 months and you still can't answer why. People like you are the reason this needs to be taught.
I just love Amber SO much! She is an important voice in our time. And she’s super fun! ❤️❤️❤️🙌🙌😭
She's one of a kind.
Wow you said a whole lot of truth in this episode.
Except she didn’t describe critical race theory.
I remain unpersuaded.
if you don't make a movie about it, ain't nobody ever gonna know about it!!
