Well, I would love if that concept could be retired and forgotten sooner than later. But as things are right now, e.g. CRT is required to get there and CRT requires the concept of race :/
I’m not sure I agree that CRT is required necessarily. Why do you think that?
E.g. it is a reality that there is currently some correlations between race and e.g. poverty. Even we don't consider those correlations when enacting laws, we create unjust laws that impact some races more than others, which would feedback into those correlations.
Extremely stupid example for. CT (critical theory in general), if your government would enact a law that would state that the government would build you your dream house for 5 millions. Even if it is more expensive than 5 million. Then "everyone" can get their dream house on paper, but in reality only the rich can get it and they get additional wealth that the general public would have to cover. Impoverishing the poor more and enrich the wealthiest more. So an unjust law.
