Christ. This is bad. But it does speak to the ability of the Overton Window to change perception. You accuse Crazy of not being familiar with DuBois, but then your description of him fits perfectly with the standard high school literature course description of "important black writer of the Harlem Renaissance. wrote poetry too."

That answer puts you at complete odds with the people you worship.

The fact that you can't separate reading something different from your own perspective and supporting it is your own problem.

Neither is an instance of CRT though. Both were observations of factual racism, and impacts thereof.

You understand the difference between claiming he's the originator of CRT and claiming that historical work done on race uses DuBois. Those aren't the same thing and you know it.

This is so immensely funny. It's like the actual specifics and similarities between DuBois and Bell aren't important. Where did Bell get his idea of white privilege? Delineate that history for me.

If you want to assert that CRT has zero basis in history… we might agree on that. If not you’ll have to live with WEB Dubois’ account of history being incorrect. You can choose.
ETA: to make it more obvious

It is interesting to watch people attempt to use critical analysis to attack critical analysis.
Critical analysis is what humans (with a modicum of intelligence) use to navigate their ways through life. It is innate with those attaining a high school diploma.
CRT is a lens some scholars use. Critical legal analysis is a lens most lawyers use when determining a legal strategy for a conflict. Critical analysis is primary thinking skill and tool for addressing conflicts in information and belief.
CRT has become a bogeyman for dullards (and I write this with all the due respect I can muster). It's another variation of the "Red Scare" propaganda.

quote:Your comparisons of DuBois and Bell are about like Biden equating the deaths of US military members with that of Beau Biden who died and served in the military. One example deals in fact. The other in manipulation of fact.
DuBois and Bell
John Lewis, whom I sincerely respected, is a similar example. He was the victim of atrocious racism .... 60yrs ago. But, like Bell, he spent the last three decades of his life conjuring up "racism", often where it did not exist at all.
CRT takes that one step further and attributes genetically encoded and therefore immutable characteristics based solely upon race ... which of course is the hallmark of racism.

You can't even define it, Jethro.
CRT is being misused by educational professionals which is why it needs to die.

He's one of those fruits who thinks if you don't believe like he does, you're a dullard. From his posting, he's clueless about CRT.

Well, obviously if people took it to mean that DuBois is the originator of CRT, then I should have been more clear. I didn't make that explicit connection, and there is good reason why I said that all scholarship on race uses DuBois as a reference point, because of certain rhetorical features that DuBois uses that, namely the idea that you could propose a scientific investigation into the nature of race. In the book The Philadelphia Negro, DuBois posits that the emancipation of black people could be achieved in the belief that the white population was driven by Enlightenment ideals. His inward turn in The Souls of Black Folks reflected some issues DuBois encountered in PN, namely that scientific study was limited because DuBois had little empirical data and whether the Enlightenment actually influenced social progress directly. Much later in his career, DuBois discusses Marxism outright, in an essay titled Marxism and the Negro Problem, where he suggests that while Marx described a period of time in Europe, any application to the situation of black people had to 'be modified' because the black class was exploited, in his view, by both the white capitalist class and the white proletariat. His last line is utterly provocative though, where he suggests that it was in the hearts of black laborers alone where the ideas of democracy in politics and industry were prevalent.
It would be utterly insane to suggest that DuBois had no influence on CRT while the Frankfurt School did. What specific things from the Frankfurt School made it into CRT is actually never stated, though DuBois and Horkheimer come to a similar conclusion about the Enlightenment and the working class.

Here’s a person who thinks “CRT” is “critical analysis” because they both have “critical” in them.
