CRT Rebranded? What You Need to Know
Critical Race Theory (CRT) became evident in educational settings in the 1980s, but its mainstream acceptance as truth is a recent development. CRT, also known as anti-racism, applies Marxist ideology to race, dividing individuals by skin color. It labels white individuals as oppressors and people of color as oppressed, fueling racial conflict. This Marxist theory claims that the oppressed must rise up and overthrow their oppressors, creating division instead of unity.
