Contemporary Conversations: CRT, Identitarianism, and the Struggle for America's Heart and Mind

The American Idea by Ashbrook Center

Episode notes

Jeff discusses the historical and intellectual roots of Critical Race Theory with Robert George of Princeton University. What is CRT? Where does it come from? What are its roots as an academic movement? What does it preach, in practice, and how do these things shape the mind of the individual and relations between people?

George suggested a few readings, linked below.
