"Nobody’s talking about CRT"

And no one particularly wants to (at least in public schools.)

But if ALL racial topics can be squashed that includes the Southern Strategy.

And one of the last things the GOP wants is for every Black American to have definitive proof that the right only holds power due to deliberately motivated racial hate and fear.

Everyone knows what Lee Atwater said on the topic (TRIGGER ALERT Offensive racial terms and context)

---------------

The late, legendarily brutal campaign consultant Lee Atwater explains how Republicans can win the vote of racists without sounding racist themselves:

"You start out in 1954 by saying, “N****r, n****r, n****r.” By 1968 you can’t say “n****r”—that hurts you, backfires. So you say stuff like, uh, forced busing, states’ rights, and all that stuff, and you’re getting so abstract. Now, you’re talking about cutting taxes, and all these things you’re talking about are totally economic things and a byproduct of them is, blacks get hurt worse than whites.… “We want to cut this,” is much more abstract than even the busing thing, uh, and a hell of a lot more abstract than “N****r, n****r.” "
