Self-proclaimed “Antiracist” groups seem to be consistently putting out some of the most racist, divisive content there is. It’s a shame that there is an industry coming out of it, as this creates a financial dependency on pushing this narrative.
It’s such a grift and things are only getting worse. I don’t know how people get guilted into falling for the BS put out by people like Robin DiAngelo. Jack Dorsey is unbelievably naive.
The fact that it’s called the “center for antiracist research” basically guarantees that it can only ever find a specific outcome. It’s not like this is open-ended scientific inquiry.
Ahh yes, "the real racists are the ones criticizing racism", combined with a dash of "it must be an insincere scam, because it would be, if I were doing this."
I'm assuming the research is in methods to combat racism. The actual "open-ended scientific inquiry" so far has shown racism exists all over, so still wanting to "prove it" is either uninformed or disingenuous.
The DOA [Department of Anti-racism] would be responsible for preclearing all local, state and federal public policies to ensure they won’t yield racial inequity, monitor those policies, investigate private racist policies when racial inequity surfaces, and monitor public officials for expressions of racist ideas. The DOA would be empowered with disciplinary tools to wield over and against policymakers and public officials who do not voluntarily change their racist policy and ideas. -- Dr. Ibram Kendi
