Civil rights attorney and media pundit Leo Terrell condemned American academia's embrace of critical race theory Friday, calling the ideology "racist."

"They're looking at the curriculum. They're looking at the lesson plans, and I guarantee you, critical race theory is a racist theory. And I want to destroy this myth right now. People of all colors, including myself, oppose critical race theory because it's based on a lie. This country was founded on liberty and freedom," he told Fox & Friends.
Critical race theory and other closely related ideologies hold that the United States is inherently racist and that skin color is used to create and maintain social, economic, and political inequalities between whites and nonwhites. Critics claim it relegates all white people to the role of oppressors and all people of color to that of victim.
"I'll tell you right now, these white liberals on the Democratic side, they do not speak for America. I think the strategy should be what's going on right now," Terrell continued. "Families across the country of all colors should challenge this school board, demand to see the curriculum, demand to see the lesson plan, demand to see the stated objective, to see if this critical race theory is in the school curriculum. If so, challenge it, and raise it to a level where people are aware of it."

Critical race theory and its integration into the country's education system will be "a major factor, along with crime in the 2022 election, in which the Democrats are going to lose," Terrell said.
