Do tell us exactly where it is "all the rage," because I'm in the Humanities environment and am hearing exactly nobody talking about it on any sort of a regular or sustained basis. Granted my own experience is not necessarily that of everyone else. But if it truly were such a heightened presence in so many departments and with so many faculty, administrators, and students, we'd likely have more precise and visible examples of its presence. If you have evidence that CRT is a guiding principle among more than a small, distinct minority of those people, please share it. I'd welcome the opportunity to see it. The rest of us are too busy just trying to keep up with our designated work load, which grows each year as we consistently are asked to do more with less.
Did you get millions to study your area like Ibrahim X? Have your ideas been spread to many schools via various тАЬeducation experts?тАЭ Did you sell millions of books like Robin DiAngelo?
YeahтАжCRT is just some back water ideaтАжnot popular at all.
Have you ever worked on a college campus and seen with your own eyes what goes on there? Or do you let others do your thinking for you?
True story (not that I make any of them up -- I don't need to). Today when I walked into class, the first student I saw was wearing a hoodie with something written on the front. It was not "Liberate Palestine." It was not "CRT Forever." It was ... "Celibacy Rocks." Yeah, really. That's where they are at more than CRT where I work. What else they wear, and talk about, is usually the Green Bay Packers, and how they suck without Aaron Rodgers and what a diva act he had become. If you can find CRT in there somewhere, let us know. That's in addition to the chalk writing on the sidewalks, offering free food at a Christian mission near campus and urging people to go to Homecoming activities. Sorry, no CRT there either. The point is that they have their own agenda and really don't give a sh.. what their professors think or say or do. And most professors who want to keep their paychecks coming at a state school know to steer clear of such things when it is too easily exploited by those who oppose them and, as noted, not what the students want to hear in the first place. We have much more in common with the Brady Bunch than with Berkeley. Are there some individual exceptions? Sure. Like anywhere else, some people have trouble putting their personal passions aside. But are they a clear majority or minority presence? Figure that out for yourself. It's not hard to do if you keep an open mind. On my campus, if you are looking for CRT evidence, you will have a long search ahead of you. Plan to budget extra time for that.
Where do you think the whole "oppressed/oppressor" language comes from?
It comes straight from CRT. Which is all the rage in university humanities these days.

What school?
Let me know and IтАЩm pretty sure IтАЩll be able to find more than a few profs who champion CRT ideas
Wow. So since someone wore a football jersey that means the politics isnтАЩt real? Give me a break.
HereтАЩs a tip:
When you say тАЬbutтАЭтАжeverything before it is meaningless.
So when you say, тАЬYes HamasтАЩs attack was terrible, but we have to understand [excuse] the PalestiniansтАжтАЭ
WellтАжyou really donтАЩt mean the first part.
So now you're down to arguing over conjunctions to try to make your point?
Just. Move. On. Already.
Right after you admit you donтАЩt like Israel and that you think the Palestinian cause is just; that their attack on Israel was justified.
You know you doтАж
