to tell me what it means to be black a lot of the things that we use to define people are awful stereotypes you know so they take a very distorted view of what black is black is you listen to this type of music you dress in this way you study these courses you have these political views and we have created what a black person is and if you don't fit into that box It doesn't, you're not real.

This is destroying the identities of hundreds of millions of people who have different ethnicities. They're all black, different cultures, different languages, and just throwing all of that away to create this really bland stereotype. The same thing with Islam and Islamic countries. There's so many different groups.

And then all of that is thrown away for this identikit, sort of Islamic identity of you are pro-Palestine, you are anti-Israel, you will only eat halal, this is how you dress, and you don't like the way Western people behave. We must stop putting people in these boxes. Critical race theory is an enabler of putting people into boxes.

We did so much to get rid of stereotypes, and now the stereotypes are coming back, except now they're coming back as a norm to be enforced rather than something to be laughed at. And it matters because if you are a black child in a school and people tell you that this is how to be black, you know, why are you wearing glasses? You're being a SWAT. You're being a nerd.

That's not what you should be doing. We start taking away opportunity and options away from young people. They feel that they have to conform. and not conform to a high standard, which is how things used to be, but conforming to a low standard. This is life destroying. So I hate critical race theory.
