Like it just I really. First of all, yes, it was a complete outrage what Republicans did on the Senate. Like everyone should be mad about it. I was mad about it. It was also fucking clownish and ridiculous.

"

So obviously Mr. Kendi became a bestselling author during the BLM protests of 2020. He's the proponent of how to be an anti-racist, massive bestselling books. Really the inventor of kind of anti-racist ideology going back about a decade.

So the first page says anti-racist baby is not, bred, not born. Anti-racist baby is raised to make society transform. Babies are taught to be racist or anti-racist. There's no neutrality.

Take these nine steps to make equity a reality and then step one just give you a sense of these. Open your eyes to all skin colors. Anti-racist baby learns all the colors, not because race is true.

If you claim to be colorblind, you deny what's right in front of you.

So it's probably...It's not as bad as all the political parts.

Episode: Mini Show #37: BLM Finances, DHS Board, Southern B...

It was a children's book mentioned as being cringeworthy by one host, who provided excerpts from the text that outlined its core message on anti-racism from infancy. It was ultimately cancelled by Netflix.

"

But I think it's fascinating, Crystal, that this is being canceled in the context also of Netflix's business problems on top of the letter that they just issued all of their staff saying, hey, if you have a problem with the content that we produce here, you can leave if you'd like.

So the first page says anti-racist baby is not, bred, not born. Anti-racist baby is raised to make society transform. Babies are taught to be racist or anti-racist. There's no neutrality.

Take these nine steps to make equity a reality and then step one just give you a sense of these. Open your eyes to all skin colors. Anti-racist baby learns all the colors, not because race is true. If you claim to be colorblind, you deny what's right in front of you.

There was one part that I actually liked, which is point at policies is the problem, not people. Some people get more while others get less because policies don't always grant equal access. Shout, there's nothing wrong with the people even though all races are not treated the same. We are all human anti-racist baby can proclaim.

So it's probably... It's not as bad as all the political parts. Probably the most controversial part of it is the typical mode in white American parenting is, let's be colorblind, polite society approach has been, we're just, every race is the same. We're not going to talk about race.

Babies are taught to be racist or anti-racist. There is no neutrality.

This is not a book of my opinions. This is a book about America and about you. This book is full of truth. It's packed with absolutely true facts of the choices people made over hundreds of years.

Can we send white people back to Europe?

The idea that we should pretend not to see racism is connected to the idea that we should pretend not to see color. It's called color blindness.
