CRT recognizes that racism is engrained in the fabric and system of the American society. The individual racist need not exist to note that institutional racism is pervasive in the dominant culture. This is the analytical lens that CRT uses in examining existing power structures. CRT identifies that these power structures are based on white privilege and white supremacy, which perpetuates the marginalization of people of color. CRT also rejects the traditions of liberalism and meritocracy. Legal discourse says that the law is neutral and colorblind, however, CRT challenges this legal “truth” by examining liberalism and meritocracy as a vehicle for self-interest, power, and privilege. CRT also recognizes that liberalism and meritocracy are often stories heard from those with wealth, power, and privilege. These stories paint a false picture of meritocracy; everyone who works hard can attain wealth, power, and privilege while ignoring the systemic inequalities that institutional racism provides.

I’m not going to unfollow you like he did, because I like the art you post and I believe representation of all types, including historical, is good for society, but CRT is complete bullshit.
Quiet, everyone!
The World’s Most Sarcastic Medieval Band just wrote a new smash hit, and they’re about to perform it for us LIVE!!!
Stay tuned for the B-side, “I only read books to look at the pictures” and the Superbass Dubstep Remix, “I want to continue to benefit from your work without acknowledging the institutional barriers you face that make it more difficult!”
Have I ever mentioned that the person who runs this blog is an amazing human being?
You should do yourself a favor and just, follow this blog.
