CRITICAL RACE THEORY (CRT) & DIVERSITY, EQUITY, & INCLUSTION (DEI)

Critical Race Theory (CRT): The Hidden Dangers

 

Critical Race Theory (CRT) Sounds Academic—But It’s Destructive.
CRT reformulates old Marxist ideas of oppressor and oppressed, swapping class categories for racial ones (White vs. Black). It falsely labels the United States as a fundamentally racist nation, condemns capitalism, individual rights, and the Constitution, and ignores real drivers of inequality like family structure, education, and work ethic. CRT views everything through a racial lens, seeking to dismantle American society and replace it with a totalitarian “antiracist” bureaucracy. This page outlines CRT's principles, criticisms, its infiltration in education, impacts, and why it's tied to DEI—urging action to protect our children and nation.

 

Core Principles of CRT That Undermine Society

CRT's ideology promotes division and control:

• Assumes racism is embedded in every aspect of life, relationship, and interaction—encouraging constant scrutiny.

• Relies on “interest convergence”: Whites only advance Black opportunities when it benefits themselves, fostering distrust of all anti-racism efforts.

• Opposes free societies, aiming to dismantle and replace them with systems controlled by CRT advocates.

• Treats people as “socially constructed groups” based on race, erasing individuality.

• Dismisses science, reason, and evidence as “White” ways of knowing, favoring storytelling and “lived experience” instead—harming everyone, especially minorities.

• Rejects alternatives like colorblindness as “racist,” making CRT the only acceptable view (totalitarian).

• Labels dissenters as racist or white supremacist, even if they are Black (also totalitarian).

• Is never satisfied, acting as an “activist black hole” that destroys whatever it touches.

 

Criticisms: Why CRT Fails to Address Racism

CRT doesn't solve inequality—it deepens it:

• Ignores key factors like family structure (e.g., fatherless homes) and focuses on unsubstantiated claims of systemic discrimination.

• Would deepen racial divides rather than heal them.

• Tied to Cultural Marxism, with roots in Marxist tenets, goals, and destructive effects on education and society.

• Challenges all racial justice ideas to fit an oppressor/oppressed narrative, politicizing everything.

• Eight major flaws make it terrible for combating racism: pervasive racism assumption, distrust of progress, anti-freedom stance, group-over-individual focus, devaluation of evidence, rejection of alternatives, assumption of bad-faith dissent, and endless destructive activism.

 

CRT in Education: Indoctrination in Schools

CRT has infiltrated K-12 education, often bundled with DEI and delivered through Social Emotional Learning (SEL):

• Teachers view subjects through a racial lens, portraying one race as oppressor and another as oppressed.

• In Minnesota, teachers must adopt a Marxist worldview—including CRT, equity, gender ideology, and social justice—to get licensed.

• Social Studies standards embed CRT, rewriting history with oppressed/oppressor frameworks; ethnic studies turn schools into “extremist boot camps.”

• Examples: Burnsville, Edina, and Hopkins districts promote CRT; superintendents claim “racism pervades every aspect of life”; trainings compare school suspensions to slavery; math classes “dismantle racism.”

• BLM curricula in schools teach revolution; NEA pushes CRT nationwide despite opposition.

• “Safe and Supportive Schools” laws (e.g., MN's 2017 Bullying Bill) serve as backdoors for CRT and equity.

• Initiatives like “decenter whiteness” in school structures promote social justice and CRT.

• SEED Diversity Training has pushed CRT, equity, and diversity since 1987.

​

The Broader Impacts of CRT

CRT harms individuals, families, and society:

• Instills shame in children, viewing them as oppressors or victims based on race.

• Warps young minds through indoctrination, politicizing education and eroding hearts and minds.

• Undermines American foundations, replacing liberty with bureaucratic control.

• Acts as a destructive force, threatening societal collapse.

• Deepens inequality by ignoring real solutions like strengthening families.

​

Connections to DEI and Other Ideologies

CRT and DEI are intertwined, sharing ideologies and outcomes:

• Both are delivered via SEL, promoting equity (equal outcomes via redistribution) over equality (equal opportunities).

• Equity dismisses merit, character, and responsibility, labeling founding documents as “white privilege.”

• Linked to Cultural Marxism, gender ideology, social justice, and BLM—turning schools into indoctrination sites.

• Equity is bigotry in disguise, embedded in education through non-profits and regional governance.

 

Legal and Policy Responses

• States like Oklahoma, Florida, North Dakota, Tennessee, and Idaho have banned CRT in schools.

• Databases track CRT in education (e.g., Legal Insurrection Foundation, UCLA Anti-CRT Map).

• Teachers defy laws to push CRT; parents use FOIA requests for transparency.

• Model policies prohibit CRT in school boards.

Say NO to CRT—Restore America’s True Values

Reject CRT to safeguard our children, education, and future. Organize locally: Review curricula for buzzwords like “equity” or “bias”; attend board meetings; submit FOIAs; support anti-CRT officials. Take action at state and national levels—contact representatives. Use resources to educate and fight back.Promote Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s vision: Judge by character, not skin color. Uphold the Declaration: All are created equal with inalienable rights to life, liberty, and happiness.
