In this episode, Roy Wood Jr. sits down with leading scholar Kimberlé Crenshaw and producer CJ Hunt to discuss Critical Race Theory, why it’s become Fox News’ favorite talking point, but how no one can seem to define it. The three also discuss why teaching CRT is necessary and how ignoring the blowback could endanger years of progress.  Watch the original segments: <a href="https://youtu.be/XQKRYJnqIdM">https://youtu.be/XQKRYJnqIdM</a><a href="https://youtu.be/6ofjZH80y3g">https://youtu.be/6ofjZH80y3g</a> Originally aired: September 21, 2021 Learn more about your ad-choices at <a href="https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com">https://www.iheartpodcastnetwork.com</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
