My friend, @jamiljivani, has sent an open invitation for critical race theorists in Canada to join me and @noahrjarvis for an honest conversation on critical race theory in Canada.
I hope they accept this open invitation.

Today I issued an open challenge in the Toronto Sun to Canada's critical race theorists
In Oct, @MLInstitute is hosting a discussion on CRT
We have anti-CRT panelists confirmed. Now we're looking for pro-CRT panelists. Will they step up?
Full challenge: torontosun.com/opinion/colum…

Ibram Kendi thinks so little of black people that he argues our kids can only perform well in school if we reject testing as racist
John McWhorter thinks so highly of black people that he argues with more support our kids can excel in testing
Who is the anti-racist, again?
John McWhorter rejects the notion: when Black folk get lower standardized test scores, either the tests are racist or something is wrong w/ Black folk. Calls this “an artificially narrowed realm of choices.” Then he explains what's wrong w/ Black folk. 1/

We got a lot of encouraging feedback on our conversation about critical race theory - so we decided to do another podcast
Check out my conversation with @noahrjarvis @SlowToWrite on artificial intelligence rappers and racist "anti-racists"

A question for my Canadian friends
I'm listening to this episode of The Realignment Podcast about the impact of school closures on American children. Really important stuff. Why do you think so few Canadian journalists want to talk about or report on this problem in our country?

"Defund the police" is one of the least successful political movements in recent history.
Depending on the jurisdiction, it has either led to more investments in police, or to higher crime rates, or both.
Alberta government says it would add 275 more officers if province launches own police force nationalpost.com/news/albert…

Perhaps we should conclude that Bell Media doesn't treat women or men of colour fairly.
Just as Bell has tried to pit Lisa LaFlamme and Omar Sachedina against one another, they also did the same to Danielle Graham and Tyrone Edwards earlier this year.

Bell is Canada's largest telecom company. If you are one of Bell's phone, internet or cable customers, you know how badly they treat you. And the evidence is piling up about how badly Bell treats employees.
That's why Bell loves wokeness. To present a fake progressive image.

Ours may become the first civilization destroyed, not by the power of our enemies, but by the ignorance of our teachers and the dangerous nonsense they are teaching our children. In an age of artificial intelligence, they are creating artificial stupidity.
