Critical Race Theory (CRT) has become a hot button topic in the past year. How much do you know about this theoretical approach?  The Racial Justice Project has decided to explore CRT over the next 4-5 weeks.  We will share e-news commentary, YouTube videos, TED talks, and links to other written materials; we hope to host a discussion hour.  We will also support Rev. Sally in offering a Sunday service on CRT on October 24.  Today, we are proposing some questions that we hope we can explore together.

• What are the origins of Critical Race Theory?
• How does CRT help us understand racial justice issues in education, the criminal justice system, and society in general?
• In what ways can current and past racism be addressed in public schools?
• What are the major criticisms and controversies that have surrounded CRT in recent years?
• How can we talk about CRT with our family, friends, and school board members?

If you have a question or concern related to CRT, please contact the Racial Justice Project at rjp@uucuc.org so that we can try to address them.
