Description

"Critical race theory is a way of viewing issues of race and racism in our societies that is rooted in critical theory. It then demands taking a critical view of society based upon this premise, which means that it requires us to accept the diagnosis of systemic inequalities based upon social constructions of race and continually examine ourselves, each other, and society as a whole, including our institutions, for any trace of racial bigotry so that it might be dismantled.

In this episode, James Lindsay sits down with Michael O’Fallon to discuss the origins and core concepts of critical race theory in plain language, so that it and its terms can be more clearly understood."
