Where did CRT come from? Where did this whole trans movement come from? Where did feminism as we know it today come from?

By whom? Social engineers. To what end? To engineer society.

CRT is a misunderstood term that is now being used to block Black students from learning their history. Books about Rosa Parks, Ruby Bridges, Roberto Clemente are banned. Black parents are paying taxes to fund schools but their children are forced to listen to a history based on the Lost Cause. This dismissal of Black history is coming from social engineers. Most of this social engineering is coming from people who label themselves Conservative.

Actually most conservatives are offended by the CRT rhetoric about White privilege and Whites as oppressors and really aren’t that interested in race politics until they are accused and harassed as being racists and guilty of either things all cultures did at some time or place in the history of man. Conservatives are also tired of having their money go to failed schools with over paid teachers that have failed multiple generations of Blacks. To cities like Philly where we average 10 murders a week and over 2000 black on black shootings a year. CRT is Marxist and Equity is about redistribution of dollars until every person has the same number of dollars.

Conservatives like to bend terms to fit their delusions. Black history is being banned in public schools supported by the tax dollars of Black parents. Hurt feelings are used to ban teaching about Rosa Parks and Martin Luther King Jr. Black students spent decades in the classroom learning the myth of the Lost Cause. The main message was that Blacks were enslaved and had to wait for the white man to rescue them. The so-called education emasculated the men. Then there is surprise when they look for help from without.

The were no lessons about the battles fought against slavery on the continent of Africa. The history of shipboard rebellions were hidden. The history of rebellions by enslaved Black people against the slave holders was kept secret. All of this was done to create a docile population

Now that Blacks demand a true telling of history, it is now magically CRT and Communist. This is the same vile charge leveled against Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. Those who argued against Civil Rights in the past are no different than those who whine “Woke, Woke, Woke, Woke, Woke. today

There is a huge difference between wanting equality and wanting equity. You didn’t deny that equity is about equal outcomes. Btw Whites pay taxes to educate black kids too (and I am following your form of capitalizing one race over another and not treating them as equaling deserving of capitalization).

You keep shifting topics. Critical Race Theory is looking at whether institutions and structures are dealing with issues in a racially biased way. Equity is not CRT. Insuring that students attending a school have been fed breakfast would be an example of equity.

The AP style guide issued in 2020 said lower class “black” referred to a color. The AP also capitalized Indigenous. Asian American, Native American. The AP did not suggest capitalizing white because of a historic connection with White Supremacy. If you have a problem, you should contact the Associated Press.

Hiding racism behind a racist AP decision is not becoming. It’s like saying “oh this standard says we should refer to blacks as Africans and so that’s what I do even if they find it offensive”. Capitalizing one and not the other is straight up racist.
