Critical Race Theory

C R T- new theory now embraced; demands set forth by those defined as woke- dividing races in a way disgraced. Most people feel this theory is a joke! This avenue will set us back for sure; erase the gains we've made for racial peace- negating Martin Luther King's allure in claiming unity's the centerpiece. Now white supremacy- a label made to punish those for sins of long ago; erasing history- and now be swayed to live life on a feigned guilty plateau. The comforts of Democracy- now wane with acts of violence that rise each day; no price to pay- the guilty move again- reak havoc with no mandates to obey. Racial unity brought equality- each race or color got an equal chance. Now, equity defines disparity- supports unequally divided stance. A country, split- appears to be the goal our leaders, press, and big tech now push for. Democracy- their foe against control; most fear a Marxist future they explore.
