"White people have to take the lead in dismantling racial prejudice because they have led the world in perpetuating it." Exactly! That is the whole point, white people have perpetuated racial prejudice for generations and this sudden "concern" with Critical Race Theory (or truth as sane people call it) is just a new iteration of racial prejudice. God forbid white children should be taught that our country's history is fraught with racial hatred but what is important is that we learn from the past so we can continue working towards the day when white people aren't automatically given privileges just because of the color of their skin but rather everyone has a fair and equal chance to succeed. The past can't be changed but unless we learn from it, we will continue to relive it. If that is being woke then I can't wait for all white people to wake up and start respecting others based on who they are on the inside not what color their skin may be or their racial makeup may be.
