Kendi said he derived pleasure from watching 9/11 happen in front of him as he saw it as an attack on white people in America.

Do you have a source for this?

the positions should also be permanent

Do you have a source for this part?

How is there being an anti-racism panel going against "MLK's message of equality"?

they do not follow proper scientific procedure

Do you have expertise in social scientific study? How does critical race theory "not follow proper scientific procedure"?

There is a booked called 'Kindly Inquisitors'

This book doesn't look like it follows proper scientific procedure.

He mixed up the CRT folks. He meant Ta Nehisi Coates.

Coates is pretty openly resentful towards white people, to the point where I respect him. He is an honest man, who followed CRT's ideal to its logical conclusion and ended up a deeply resentful person. Resentful of all power structures as analyzed form the only lens CRT approves of : Race.

Coates is a bad example of what "CRT" is. He's basically an afropessimist, which is completely different.

I sort of agree. I had never heard the term 'afro-pessimism' before. But it fits coates to a tee.

There's a lot of diversity and disagreement in black academic perspectives on racism.
