Critical Race Theory Has Infiltrated the Federal Government | Christopher Rufo on Fox News The Heritage Foundation 2020-09-02 | Critical race theory is a theoretical framework, rooted in Marxism, that posits individuals as oppressed or oppressor based on their skin color. Beginning in the 1960s, higher education became permeated with critical theory. Critical theory, also rooted in Marxism, says that we must understand our beliefs—including on religion and politics—vis-a-vis the “means of production”; namely, businesses and industries. In this view, it’s in the business owners’ interest to create laws, social norms, and ideas that keep them in power. Later on, this concept was applied to race, gender, and other identities. Critical race theorists see these identities as social constructs that support systems of oppression. Regrettably, these theories have permeated higher education, the mainstream media, and, most recently, the responses to Floyd’s killing in the custody of Minneapolis police officers. Christopher Rufo joined Fox News on September 1, 2020, to not only discuss the dangers of critical race theory, but how it has infiltrated the federal government. Christopher Rufo is a visiting fellow in domestic policy studies, focusing on homelessness.Still haven’t subscribed to The Heritage Foundation on YouTube?

Never Again Is Not Enough: Remembering the Tragedy of October 7 The Heritage Foundation 2024-10-15 | Since the horrific atrocities committed by Hamas against innocent Israelis, the Biden administration and the international community have waged an unprecedented, comprehensive, and escalating political war against Israel. They have attempted to criminalize Israel’s war efforts, effectively denying the Jewish state, the right to self-defense, and state sovereignty. This has fueled an unprecedented rise of antisemitism on the streets and campuses of American universities. Rather than an organic movement, the demonstrations, encampments, and riots engulfing these campuses and city streets are part of a concerted effort to sow social and political discord across the country.Our two panels will discuss both the organizations, objectives, and strategies behind the continued rise in antisemitism as well as the importance of restoring the once historic U.S.-Israel alliance.
