Cypher comments on Saying white people food tastes plain isn't the same as calling the cops on a black teen

Yes, really. Critical race theory has a conflicting definition of racism to the nonsense in the OP.

Not that CRT is without issues but it’s funny how many people claim to support something without having read a damn thing.

I’m not sure I agree. The precepts of “racism is ordinary”, social construction of race and social convergence seem to place racism directly in a systemic/social embedding.

And that doesn’t even begin to address the inherent social nature of intersectionality.

I would go as far as saying that in CRT racism is expressly defined as a property of society as a whole. Not merely prejudice based on skin color.

In CRT racism is defined under four categories, of which two address the so called prejudice + power, neither of which is simply labelled as 'racism'.

I'm done here, people keep referencing some dog shit work from the 1970's like its gospel and redefined a word for every society globally.

I must say, you are a very poor communicator. You are jumping down people’s throat all over the thread, but trying to get info from you on your stance is like pulling teeth.

Why are you even here?

That said, “CRT does not use the word racism” is not exactly illuminating to the matter at hand. It’s also not true. Delgado& Stefanic mentions racism 16 times in the introduction alone.
