Critical Race Theory (CRT) is NOT a worldview, it is a methodology. Evaluating CRT as a worldview is a disservice to its ethos. Because it is a methodology, it can be deployed by thinkers who represent an array of worldviews.
So, there can be Marxists, Buddhists, Christians, etc. who deploy the observations and methods of CRT.

Does CRT have faults? Yes. It tends to oversimplify issues and does not always honor the potential for redemption.
But it is also correct on many issues like systemic racism, sexism, divergent perceptions of history, and the legitimacy of personal experiences.

I am not a critical race theorists. I derive my ethics from Christian systematic theology.
My public statements reflect that understanding. But when I post my ideas, I am accused of being a student of CRT. Consider this; maybe critical race theorists are saying the same thing as me because, independent of one another, we have arrived at the same objective truths.
Here’s my struggle. Many of my Christian siblings who have ignored social matters their entire lives are now experts who publicly disqualify those who are addressing long standing social issues. They ignore the questions, but they mobilize to confront those who answer.
