Ep. 52 The Urban Politician Show - Understanding the Right-Wing Hysteria over Critical Race Theory 1:02:36

2 years sitten1:02:36

1:02:36

In recent years, Critical Race Theory (CRT) has become a flashpoint in the culture wars, particularly among right-wing politicians and media figures who argue that it is a divisive and harmful ideology that promotes racial animosity and undermines American values. In this episode of The Urban Politician Show, we dive into the growing right-wing hysteria over CRT, exploring how white nationalist Christopher Rufo framed the argument and how Florida Governor Ron DeSantis and other governors across the South have implemented policies to ban the teaching of CRT in schools. Our host and guests will examine the implications of these policies, the controversy surrounding them, and what they reveal about the deeper tensions and divisions over the legacy of racism in America. Tune in to gain a better understanding of this complex issue and its implications for American society and politics. Support the show…
