"As of the publication of Critical Race Theory it will be unwise, if not impossible, to do any serious work on race without referencing this splendid collection." -Toni Morrison "A fundamental reference guide to any serious work on race." - Amsterdam News " Critical Race Theory is a compilation of provocative writings that challenges us to consider the relationship between race, the legal system, and society at large." -Senator Bill Bradley, "As of the publication of Critical Race Theory it will be unwise, if not impossible, to do any serious work on race without referencing this splendid collection." --Toni Morrison "A fundamental reference guide to any serious work on race." -- Amsterdam News " Critical Race Theory is a compilation of provocative writings that challenges us to consider the relationship between race, the legal system, and society at large." --Senator Bill Bradley
Synopsis
What is Critical Race Theory and why is it under fire from the political right? This foundational essay collection, which defines key terms and includes case studies, is the essential work to understand the intellectual movement Why did the president of the United States, in the midst of a pandemic and an economic crisis, take it upon himself to attack Critical Race Theory? Perhaps Donald Trump appreciated the power of this groundbreaking intellectual movement to change the world. In recent years, Critical Race Theory has vaulted out of the academy and into courtrooms, newsrooms, and onto the streets. And no wonder: as intersectionality theorist Kimberlé Crenshaw recently told Time magazine, "It's an approach to grappling with a history of white supremacy that rejects the belief that what's in the past is in the past, and that the laws and systems that grow from that past are detached from it." The panicked denunciations from the right notwithstanding, CRT has changed the way millions of people interpret our troubled world. Edited by its principal founders and leading theoreticians, Critical Race Theory was the first book to gather the movement's most important essays. This groundbreaking book includes contributions from scholars including Derrick Bell, Kimberlé Crenshaw, Patricia Williams, Dorothy Roberts, Lani Guinier, Duncan Kennedy, and many others. It is essential reading in an age of acute racial injustice., In the past few years, a new generation of progressive intellectuals has dramatically transformed how law, race, and racial power are understood and discussed in America. Questioning the old assumptions of both liberals and conservatives with respect to the goals and the means of traditional civil rights reform, critical race theorists have presented new paradigms for understanding racial injustice and new ways of seeing the links between race, gender, sexual orientation, and class. This reader, edited by the principal founders and leading theoreticians of the critical race theory movement, gathers together for the first time the movement's most important essays.

  • A textbook consolidating articles from leading proponents of CRT

    This is a textbook. It consolidates articles from all over the country related to CRT. The leading figure discussed in the book is Derrick Bell. He is the founding Father of this theory. Just in case you don't know, they are proponents of CRT. The authors develop a compelling case as to why this theory is correct. They give evidence to support their casework. You get research from legal work to support their belief that racism is rooted in many of our systems in the US. They even trace the theory from slavery to now proving their case. Read it for yourself. Also read both sides of the argument. I don't agree with the theory that everything is the same as the early 1800s. Too many Africans Americans are in highly decorated positions in this country. There has to be some redemptive ...
