Marc Lamont Hill Grills Black Conservative CJ Pearson on Critical Race Theory

Multiple states across the country are banning the teaching of critical race theory in schools. In a Florida state board meeting, a last-minute amendment was added to the original proposal. It spells out that critical race theory as well as the 1619 Project, are examples of theories that distort historical events and are inconsistent with the state board standards. Many attendees showed their support in protest after a member of the Northside Coalition of Jacksonville called on the board to allow teachers to teach the truth. CJ Pearson, campaign manager for Georgia Gubernatorial candidate Vernon Jones, joins the show to discuss the banning of critical race theory.

[@SmokeyKeitaTEACH]

@@michaelwilliams853 Black is not scientifically known as a human genome, those who created the identity black, were Europeans removing the identity of Africans, so that they could create for themselves a NEW SOCIAL CONSTRUCTED identity, that would hide their own minority status. Due Europe is a continent where several countries sit, they are several different minority groups of people from the European continent. The European created a way to cheat the census population count, due they are outnumbered per representation via each country. For example the largest demographic of a single group out of Europe, are German Americans, their total population is only 13.1% percent of the populations . The African Americans population is 14.1% of the total U.S population. There aren't any Black people or White people, these are social constructs and black is assigned, white identity is chosen. Where is it that black is a state of mind? How do you conceptualize the ideology that black is mental, other than those who created and assigned black identity, where psychologically inept due they are European imperialist whose only goal was to hide their minority status and lie that under color they are the majority. Knowledge is a state of mind, know thyself.

In 2023, we have the most illiterate generation to ever graduate high school. Imagine if "educators" actually taught Reading, Writing, Science, Social Studies and Arithmetic. You know, to actually challenge, educate and prepare kids for a successful adult life. Nope. Public schools are infested with alphabet people using our kids for their own personal validation because their own sense of self revolves around their sexual preference and they insist your grade-schoolers know about it. Then we have the crt advocates pushing identitarianism with an extremely myopic and corrosive ideology. But let's keep lowering standards and eroding key preconditions for placement or advancement: Graduation is for participation. The only remaining standard is attendance. It's no wonder seniors are graduating with a tested 6th grade reading level.

[@jrasicmark1]

Absolutely! Then, later, he can't name one critical race theorist who makes the claim he's making, and he says it's about the whole body of work. He can't honestly make that argument if he hasn't read the entire "body of work" and I seriously doubt he has if he hasn't even read the 1619 Project. But whether he's read the entire body of work or not, he should be able to name one theorist who has made the claim he's making just one time and he can't even do that. Probably because no critical race theorist has said what he claims. So if he isn't even aware of one theorist who has said that, he can't really make the claim that he's judging the entire "body of work" if he can't be sure that one claim is even in that body of work or not.

They also leave out how the Carib are from the Orinoco River Basin and they conquered the Caribbean Islands. They also leave out all of the Native Americans who conquered and killed each other. Did they ever teach you in school that there’s a Native American pyramid outside of St. Louis called Cahokia which was the size of the pyramids in Mexico.

Take race out of the equation, CRT is a modernist revisionist view that isn’t in the slightest objective or historically accurate. The notion that the basis of american history and economics is rooted in black southern slavery is a key CRT talking point and is displayed in textbooks. Slavery was largely not practiced in the north since inception, average southerners didnt practice either, skyscrapers and railroads were built mostly by non black immigrants, slavery decades before the civil war wasnt economically efficient, slavery flattened wages for the average white worker in the south, and offset American industrialization. CRT is not objective or rooted in fact and statistically our school systems civic, historical, and government curriculums are compromised making todays public school students less competitive.

None of those issues were something I was incapable of handling as a middle schooler or high schooler.

[@thelastboyscout7596]

Mr. Knight, I agree with you 100%. That's exactly it in a nutshell. He really doesn't know what it is. All he did was ab-lib or pretend that he knew what it was. CRT is acknowledging and studying how intertwined Racism is in all sectors in our society. And how they try to make it seem or say that each one of.those sectors in society treat people the same and its administered equally to everybody. But, in reality, we know it's not. Like the Law, Housing, Education and Schools, etc. In other words, how RACE plays a part in American Society. How people are treated because of their race. Where is it in there that Hate is being taught. CRT is American History. The young guy iss trying to frame it and define it with dumb conservative talking points. I'm sure he knew before hand what the discussion was going to be about before he came on the show and didn't prepare himself. And that's exactly what talking points do. Pretend that you know what you're talking about, don't answer questions, then look smug as if you're the smart person in the room. I'm willing to bet that he probably believe that the Bell Curve is factual. And that's exactly how American Society treat people who are different. Just like the Bell Curve. Where Whites are viewed as naturally smarter than African Americans? No matter what Black People do, either speaking on.why the police want to KILL them for nothing, why they can't live where they want to, how come they can't walk in places without be criminally harassed by police. And on and on and on. He's heard from others certain talking points and think how bad it is. No matter what we do, if we don't let people so-called define us or talk for us, then whatever the case,. it's EVIL.

[@thelastboyscout7596]

How can you take classes on it and have been on panel discussions, can't name one author or what quote anyone made that espoused hate. And what makes so stupid of the people that oppose it is, IT'S NOT BEING TAUGHT ANYWHERE.

Problem is people like you are uneducated and uninformed, and people like MLH and Eric Michael Dyson use big words and provocative statements, then you go to extremes as if that is standard. Seriously he said not wanting to teach CRT is same as saying we need to erase the history of slavery in America and pretend racism never existed here.
