Abstract
- The author discusses the concept of Critical Race Theory (CRT). He cites the inadequacy of CRT in its advocacy of white supremacy and in its prioritizing of race rather than class as the primary contradiction in capitalist society, to explain the occurrences of racist and xeno-racist in capitalist societies. He mentions the problem with the theory's promotion of the abolition of whiteness, particularly in the context of education in schools. He also discusses the entry of CRT into British education.
