O hear the phrase tossed around in arguments, but what is the theory?

Is there actually a well-defined theory with a specific canon or is it a vague/disputed term?

I’ll probably regret asking this lol

Critical race theory (CRT) is an interdisciplinary academic field devoted to analysing how laws, social and political movements, and media shape, and are shaped by, social conceptions of race and ethnicity. CRT also considers racism to be systemic in various laws and rules, and not only based on individuals’ prejudices

It’s actually real. For a long time I thought it was just a buzzword like “woke” was but it’s an actual school of thought.

It’s real, but its name was picked as a “thing I don’t like” buzzword on purpose by a chud whisperer because he knew it would set off their hog neurons
