The New York chapter of the oldest Chinese American civil rights group has denounced critical race theory (CRT) as “a hateful, divisive, manipulative fraud,” urging parents to identify and call out the ideology in their children’s education.
In a Feb. 23 letter (pdf), the Chinese American Citizens Alliance of Greater New York condemned CRT, a European Marxist outgrowth that views society through the singular lens of race-based power struggle and labels the very foundations of American social and political life—such as rationalism, constitutional law, and legal reasoning—as tools of racial oppression.
