Tuition increases, increased State funding, a CRT/DEI class surtax and deferred maintenance could all be considered to replace Federal funding cuts to universities that choose to preserve academic freedom. Increased political will is going to be needed.

This brief video is an excellent explanation of what critical race theory is, and what the resistance to it aims to do.

This built-in, normal anti-Black hiring discrimination is a part of what Critical Race Theory examines in its pedagogy. The current attacks on #CRT and #DEI are designed to preserve white preference in hiring and prevent Black career advancement.

Thank you!

And it cancelled $600 Million in grants to support DEI, teaching about racial discrimination and support of BIPOC academic and cultural organizations.

American law and policy are regressing into pre-1964 systemic anti-BIPOC racism again.

The Roberts Court is willing to remedy discrimination against people of color (POC) only when it strongly resembles racism during the pre–Civil Rights Era. But the Court is willing to remedy discrimination against white claimants even when it takes more modern, more novel, more improvisatory forms.

This is a great documentary of how urban renewal destroyed the prosperous Black business area of West Ninth Street in Little Rock, AR. U.S.laws have always been — and still are, anti-Black. This tenet of #CRT is factual. History should be taught, not outlawed.
