The War on Critical Race Theory: Or, The Remaking of Racism

Conservative America is being consumed by Critical Race Theory, which is attacking public schooling, legislating censorship, driving elections, and dividing communities. David Theo Goldberg's book punctures the demonization of Critical Race Theory, exposes the orchestrators, funding, and effects of the attacks, and highlights the enduring nature of structural racism. He argues that the aim of CRTs is to unleash racisms anew and to stymie any attempt to fight them, protecting white minority rule.
