Liberals' Radical Race Rhetoric Is a Power Grab

Conservatives must recognize liberals' radical race rhetoric as the power grab it is.

Liberals have thus found a powerful weapon in critical race theory, whereby they view society's problems through the lens of race and presume structural racism.

Starting with the disparate impact theory - which can identify racism even in the absence of intent - liberals have now expanded racism to include microaggressions individuals are not even aware they are committing because of implicit bias.

Liberals fought in the 1960s and 1970s against traditional family structures, but since the 1980s college-educated liberals have embraced family stability and "Intensive parenting," and exhibit declining divorce rates.

Whereas previous civil-rights leaders saw the abolition of slavery and the passage of civil-rights laws as evidence of progress, and appealed to the nation's conscience to live up to America's promises, today's liberals see America as irredeemably founded in slavery and racism.

Yesterday's liberals fought America's hypocrisy; today's liberals fight its very nature.

Conservatives must recognize liberals' radical race rhetoric as the power grab it is - which allows them to enact otherwise unpopular policies and demand lucrative diversity training contracts - and also condemn actual racism that persists in the United States.
