CRITICAL RACE THEORY. WHAT IS IT?
CRT is the study of how institutionalized racism here in America has created a cast system that keeps people of color on the bottom tier. We will study each aspect in a series of recordings. In each of the presentations will include actual events throughout the history of America, proving each of the Principles of CRT.
CRT grew from Critical Legal Studies (CLS) which argued that law was not objective or apolitical, neutral or principled and dissociated from social or political considerations. CLS and CRT recognizes how race and racial inequality were reproduced through the law.
It is ironic that some in our country seek to restrict teaching CRT to America’s children when the originators of CRT find that it is our educational system most institutionalized by racism.
Principles of CRT.
Race is not biologically real but socially constructed and socially significant
Racism is a normal feature of society and is embedded within systems and institutions
CRT recognizes that racism is codified in law, embedded in structures and woven into public policy
CRT demands recognition o f the relevance of embracing the lived experiences of people of color
It is the goal of Civil Rights Attorney’s and others in showing how laws may be complicit in maintaining and unjust social order but also can be used to correct that.
In each of our presentations we point out have race and Black skin was used as the justification for making many of the laws used to oppress and intimate African Americans throughout our history.
We feel it is important to the health, security and welfare of this country that we are able to learn about and remedy our painful past.

Cocaine, Corruption & Conspiracy
“In the early 1980s, the crack epidemic tore through America’s inner cities like a tsunami, raving all in its wake” .
Crack: Cocaine, Corruption and Conspiracy showcases the brutality of the ‘crack epidemic’ throughout the 1980s and as it begins to escalate in the 1990s as well. It is a smoothly made documentary with more accurate information on the subject than I’ve personally encountered before — when I was a student, I thought that I’d be taught about the devastation that the drug brought down on the black community especially, and how the American government failed to respond to this, but unfortunately I was not. The film provides the information I thought I’d be actively taught in a way that strikes the heart, and strikes it hard.
