Critical Race Theory: A Clear Introduction to CRT Movement, Racism, Hate, Occupational Hierarchy, and How it Concerns You

By Violet E. Ridge

You've probably heard of Critical Race Theory, but what are its fundamental beliefs?
In America, the debate over Critical Race Theory has polarized society to an extreme. Derrick Bell, Kimberle Crenshaw, and others created the theory to explore for ways that racism was still manifesting itself in law and policy following the Civil Rights Acts of 1964 and 1965.

CRT, which has roots in postmodernism and marxism, served as the main trunk of the tree from which Critical Theories and Critical Social Justice sprouted. Marc Lamont Hill, Joy Reid, and numerous others have fought to defend the ideals whereas James Lindsay, Chris Rufo, and many more have fought to stop the spread of CRT. Unfortunately, a lot of people don't comprehend the subtleties surrounding the subject, thus this book makes an effort to explain CRT as honestly as it can.

This book aims to give the reader a clearer understanding of the fundamental concepts of critical race theory and how it came to be. It also exposes some of the earliest movements that made up the foundation of critical race theory.

Putting it in Audre Lorde's voice, 'it is not our differences that divide us. It is our inability to recognize, accept, and celebrate those differences.'
