“According to Encyclopedia Britannica, tenets of CRT have spread beyond academia and are used to deepen understanding of socio-economic issues such as ‘poverty, police brutality, and voting rights violations’, that are affected by the ways in which race and racism are ‘understood and misunderstood’ in the United States.”
From Wikipedia contributors. (2026a, January 18). 2020s critical race theory controversies. Wikipedia.
“Many minority groups in the United States maintain strong ethnic identity; especially in cities, immigrants are often attracted to ethnic communities established by people from their own country, communities in which many traditional cultural features are maintained. (See melting pot.)”
“Race has been used to refer to a group of people who share certain characteristics, such as skin color. However, genetic evidence has proved that such groupings are not a scientific or biological classification for categories of humans. The term is still commonly used to generally refer to groups of people that share a skin color, heritage, origin, culture, or similar characteristics. This sense of race is an arbitrary label that lumps people together and is not scientific.”
