Host Kimberlé Crenshaw debunks the claim that CRT causes discomfort in white kids and that talking about America’s racial history pits kids from different backgrounds against each other. This episode highlights who is most affected by the ban on texts by Black authors. In this conversation, we travel back to the famous 1940’s Clark Doll test used to argue  Brown v. board and show what current iterations of the study reveal about how school environments impact Black youth today.  Kimberlé Crenshaw further reflects on the ways erasing race and the history of slavery in schools ultimately inhibits critical thinking for both Black and white students. This episode features Colin Leach, professor of psychology and Africana studies at Columbia University’s Barnard College, Kiri Davis, filmmaker, with additional dialogue from Tracy Thompson Bryant and her son Darius Bryant.
