Is it bad to be white?

There’s a lot of Sturm und Drang lately about Critical Race Theory. Demagogic politicians scramble to protect our vulnerable children from its ravages. Right wing media regularly burst blood vessels over it. The left, meanwhile, can’t decide whether it’s too complex to teach to children or perfectly appropriate to teach to children. It’s just a harmless puppy dog, really! 

If the conservative politicians really wanted to prevent people from learning CRT, they would have shut up about it rather than introduce bills banning it from public education. It was previously obscure, and nothing fuels book sales like being banned. No, I suspect the real agenda is: Feed the outrage machine, and don’t ever let people forget to Be Very Afraid. Culture war profiteers making out like bandits.

Meh.

I am white. I have been told on this forum that CRT teaches that it’s bad to be white. But I’ve never seen anything written by a proponent of CRT to back that up. So here’s an invitation. For any white person who is offended by CRT: Provide a quote from an actual CRT proponent, and reflect on how it says to you it’s bad to be white. What does that say not only about CRT, but also about your beliefs about race?
