You arent qualified to teach

It would be very basic for this group.

If you catch my drift.

I stand by my statement regardless

If you want to teach accurate history, we should teach that Democrats are inherently racist, and that everything they propose must be viewed through that lens. Call it Critical Party Theory.

I do want to teach accurate history, but also there's no such thing since history is all about interpreting facts and evidence and interpretations change over time.  Which is where critical race theory comes in and why it's called *checks notes*  a theory.  Do you know what a theory is Zuker?

So what is the null hypothesis for CRT, Moss?

Probably something to do with the long history of anti-black racism in this country.  The history that you’re either ignorant of or just pretend doesn’t exist.  I’m not entirely sure which category you’re in.

You dont even understand how theory works evidently

Even calling it a theory gives it far more Credit than it deserved. It is not even a thoroughly tested hypothesis

I have’t even read Derrick Bell’s work.  As I said before, this is just a conservative bogeyman, not a real critique of an academic theory.  

White supremacy is far more the partisan boogyman. You are projecting again

Maybe you didn't understand what you were reading.  There's a fugitive slave clause written right into the Constitution.  

Fugitive Slave Clause

The Fugitive Slave Clause in the United States Constitution of 1789, also known as either the Slave Clause or the Fugitives From Labor Clause, is Article IV, Section 2, Clause 3, which requires a "person held to service or labor" who flees to another state to be returned to his or her master in the state from which that person escaped.

Says the guy who doesn’t know what "well regulated” meant in 1787.

The Bill of Rights were written after the Constitution, not in 1787.  Fwiw

Did it mean something different two years earlier?

I wasn’t sure if you knew there were amendments to the Constitution since you don’t even know what’s in the original document.

How was it set up?  Because since the Constitution legalized slavery it certainly wasn't set up to give black people an advantage.  Or is there something I'm missing?

Lot's of things, but a brain first and foremost.

Luckily you were here to save the day. It’s amazing I can even function when it comes to law. Hell, the last time I was an affiant for the Commonwealth I just passed out in front of the magistrate. I mean I made the public defender from My Cousin Vinnie look like Johnnie Cochran. Real nasty stuff.

The international slave trade is mentioned in the Constitution too with the stipulation that it couldn’t be banned for at least 20 years.

See that, you learned some stuff today.

Did CRT teach you all that, or were you able to learn it with the educational system we already have?

I’d never even heard of CRT until like two months ago.  And I have a graduate degree.  Lol

Part of the reason I think this whole fuss is a joke.

A lot of people are arguing against straw men, it is a perfect illustration of current political debate.

If you make everything and anything CRT it’s a lot easier to ban it.

This thread is hard to follow and I have no idea what anyone's argument even is anymore but I have a hunch that when KKKz, TEW, and TJ are all on the same side of a debate about race, I sure as F wouldn't want to be on that side.

What’s hilarious is that you guys don’t even know what the theory behind CRT is, you just know you want to ban it because conservative media said it’s bad.

They don’t have an argument in part because they don’t even know what it is.
