him to be here in
spirit so we tried to embody willwood as
much as we could we've all got our
little hawaiian style shirts
got a little uh necklace here that says
w on it for will
i've got my hat on although it doesn't
fit on my hair
and we've got the will wit glasses and
you know what i kind of think it's a
look guys you tell me down in the
comments if you disagree but i think
this is kind of a look
you're going to see everyone on this
podcast on monday wearing these glasses
just not the rest of the outfit
because i think everyone's vibing with
them a little too much i'm like why are
the glasses kind of cool is will
actually kind of stylish this is this is
a new revelation if we've learned
nothing else will
kind of has good taste in glasses if
will were here he would be like yes i'm
very stylish
you guys could get on my level he
wouldn't even think the compliment he
would just accept it
and give himself more compliments right
right right will does not retort back to
compliments he just accepts them and
verifies them
anyways our first story of today is
super cool because
it's featuring one of our prager force
members this is a video that has been
going viral recently of again one of our
prager force members her name is justine
murray
and she was up for miss new jersey now
if you guys are familiar with pageants
you always know there's a little uh
speech section
where the contestants come up and they
get asked questions
and justine got to talk about something
that's really really important to her
and important to our cause here at
prageru and important to our cause as
conservatives and that is censorship and
free speech
so i want to show you this amazing clip
of her just going ham
in this speech here we go
[Music]
hi justine hello what is the most
important issue your generation is
facing today
and why our generation is experiencing
an
epidemic of censorship and entitlement
and it's because our professors and our
celebrities are teaching students
to be narcissists to believe that any
view that differs from their own is an
existential threat and this is what i
experienced on my own campus with
censorship to the point
where people believe that speech is
violence so that they can threaten other
people with violence simply because they
disagree with them
whoa can we just pause it for a second
just to give her a little round of
applause that was amazing
i feel like a proud mom so prayer force
is our student and young professionals
program and justine is actually one of
our prager force influencers
so justine i want to give you guys a
little background on justine before we
dive into this video even more
so justine just graduated from syracuse
university and for the past four years
she has dealt with
crazy issues on campus getting harassed
by students by professors for her
conservative beliefs
she tried to start a conservative club
on campus it got shut down by
syracuse she was even her freshman year
this was a fun fact her freshman year
she was banned
from part of the freshman dorms that she
lived in because for halloween
she dressed like melania trump really
she has dealt with
a crazy amount and i'm so proud of her
she is using her pageant platform to
really speak on censorship you know uh
different pageant queens they usually
use their platform for different causes
that they're really passionate about or
different non-profits that they're
passionate about
and i'm just so proud to see you doing
this i know it's such it's such a big
move uh especially if if you guys are
unfamiliar with pageantry and things
like that
stepping into that world it's a whole
separate culture and these girls work
very very hard to get where they are
to even be in the running for miss new
jersey is just a crazy thing and to then
use that platform to give a speech of
which you know
people might not take too kindly to and
i think you can hear the collapse are a
little few and far between because i
think there's a lot of people that don't
quite lean that way
i love the judge's reactions in this
video too keep an eye out okay let's
keep going
very good there it is
[Applause]
and now your social impact pitch
free speech it is listed first under the
bill of rights for a reason
without it all other liberties crumble
but today we are watching free speech
get hammered to the ground by the very
institutions
that are supposed to promote diversity
of thought
let me ask you something
are you a teacher are you a professor
the mere words i'm offended are now
being used as an excuse to silence
students
fire professors and cancel people simply
because they do not tow the popular line
of thought
and that's what i experienced an
orwellian phenomenon dominating my own
campus to the point where it got
borderline violent
but through the miss america
organization i will promote miss new
jersey as miss new jersey
by empowering the voices of young women
who are not afraid to stand up
for what they believe in and become a
voice to be reckoned with
whoa that is amazing that deserved a
full
a full crowd of applause and anybody who
got to watch that speech just you were
you were just blessed by something
amazing
and she makes so many great points and
and to the left and
people who would who would disregard
what she just said or or say that it's
somehow bigoted to say what she just
said
that's true feminism right there
standing up for your right to speak and
your right to be heard in your right to
free speech
that is what a feminist looks like yeah
something pretty ironic about this too
so it's been cool because justine's been
involved with pragerforce for a while
but this clip has really blown up she's
been doing interviews about it
um she was recently on oam this week and
she brought up a really interesting
point so
after this pageant she had two of the
judges come up to her and ask her
if she was actually really censored on
her campus
and she thought it was so ironic because
you know these pageants are standing up
they're speaking out about things
they're passionate about and she
pointed out that it's very unlikely that
these same judges would have asked
someone who may have been a victim of
sexual harassment or sexual assault
the same thing did that really happen to
you though behind the scenes right i
doubt those judges would
judges would still be there if that were
the case and it speaks to
the broader problem that people don't
view this as an actual real issue and a
lot of people are fine
with those that they don't agree with
being censored and being brought off of
these platforms
and the amazing point that i feel like
she puts in this speech and she really
emphasizes is that the people
who are the culprits in the case of
these crimes of these crimes of
censorship
are the very same institutions of which
we built to uphold our rights
so look at all the public schools look
at our media
who we are supposed to be protected by
and we are meant to protect
and they are the ones who are actively
trying to censor us and our ideas
absolutely so it's just great i wanted
to give her a round of applause for
hopping up on there

perfectly actually amla
came in through pragerforce too so i did
it we've had several uh prager forcers
go viral like jonathan copel did and he
gave a speech
at a school board he's a teacher and now
this one right
um ominous tick tock so you know yeah
it's really a great group i mean
yeah it's a testament will and i both
came through pragerforce and now work at
prageru we have a couple of interns who
are starting this summer here at prageru
there's tyler he's also dressed up as
well i don't know if you guys could see
that
random little cameos aside yeah he's
sliding in
but yeah so we started we have some
interns that are starting the summer
that are in prager force so there's so
many opportunities that can be born out
of you joining this group so go to
pragerforce.com and sign up
now we're going to get into another
piece of news
not as great not as not as cheerful as
the last i'm definitely not going to
cheer this on i want to show you guys
this
daily wire article it says who were che
guevara
and fidel castro amazon's selling
children's books on mass murderers while
conservative titles
are censored so this is a story that
they just put out today
and they went through sort of the best
sellers on amazon for their kids books
and one of them
talks about the sort of who was this
person
and they go through all these different
uh world leaders all these different
historical figures
and many of which are non-controversial
as this article points out they had
albert einstein ben franklin amelia
earhart but they also had che guevara
and fidel castro
and while i think it's perfectly fine
for kids to learn about these figures i
think it's a great thing we should all
be learning about
the detriment that communism and
socialism has brought on our world and
on these different
uh regions and countries but the books
don't really
paint them that way and before i get
into i want to show you
this little screenshot here of the fidel
castro book this is the back of the book
it says who was fidel castro
one a boy who loved sports especially
baseball
two a lawyer for the poor three a leader
of the revolution in cuba
and four guess what it's all of the
above
that's so interesting that they talk
about fidel castro in this light and
they leave
out how many people died because of the
eviction
so um i mean my grandfather is literally
turning over in his grave right now he
was actually a political prisoner under
che guevara
and fidel castro and if he knew that
this is what was in children's books
children's books that his
grandchildren his great-grandchildren
would be kim jong-un or
who was adolf hitler right and tried to
paint them and humanize them by
they loved baseball too and they wanted
to
free or they wanted political change
yadda yadda anyways i had to print out
um
i refused to buy these books first of
all right it's ridiculous um
but i had to print out because one of
the amazon reviews had a picture of the
page where they said like
yeah you know they really balanced out
like a lot of the humanizing factors and
like painted him in a
more realistic light so if you're okay
with it i'm going to go
right in and take over right so
basically the last page of the book
it says after his death a lot was
written about the kind of person fidel
was and what he had done for cuba
yes he was a brave young leader but he
turned into a ruthless dictator
goes on to talk about um the um all the
cubans that
were political or political prisoners
how he didn't allow free elections or
free speech
and then it ends with so was fidel a
hero or a villain
the answer is it depends on who you ask
really
is that the answer it depends on who you
ask whether or not
fidel castro the jury's still out on
whether murdering
thousands and millions of people is
really a bad thing it makes you a
dictator apparently yeah but don't worry
no mention
of the murders just political prisoners
is how they like to kind of call it
right and people call conservatives
crazy for saying that there is an
unspoken agenda in this country to
promote communism and socialism
uh is this not proof to you and as we
always say on this program the forefront
of the battlefield when it comes to the
culture war is children and these are
children's books
being sold on amazon while in the
meantime this very same company
is censoring conservative authors from
even being able to sell their books
independently on their platform for a
little bit more context the shakeover
book says
find out sugubera a doctor turner and a
force for change
in cuba is both personal and political
the description adds
it's completely disgusting like i can't
i don't like
it i don't like it
guys will his hearing spirit we're going
to make sure he stays alive during this
stream
yeah so so i don't think there's any
issue i mean we all agree there's no
issue with teaching kids about difficult
parts of history even teaching them
about dictators but if you're gonna do
that you have to do that honestly and
teach them facts and
for whatever reason all of these
anytime the left is pushing a education
in schools it has to recast history with
1619 project it has to do this critical
race theory and teach
these their narrative as fact and so
they have to be soft on the dictators
who
took up leftist causes and instead of
just
honestly looking at difficult parts of
history they skewed things to fit their
narrative and then
they they skew it away from casting
america in any positive light
and it's it's dishonest it's almost like
we need different resources from a
different source
uh that are honest about american
history and aren't
negative for absolutely no reason oh
that's funny that you say that taylor
because it's almost like
prageru has a series of kids book coming
out called
autos tales boom so if you don't want
your kids to be indoctrinated by this
whole
who was fidel castro book go ahead and
check out autos tales
luckily we are able to sell on amazon we
have not yet been censored off of that
company so you can check us out if you
go to prageru.com
kids books you will be brought to a link
where you can click
i would like to purchase autos tails it
is 9.99 to get
this magnificent book and this specific
one focuses on the national anthem and
the pledge of allegiance
both great things that our kids should
know and be very very familiar with
so yeah go check out otto's tales
prageru.com kids books
we just dropped a link in the comments
right and you make an interesting point
taylor when you talk about
how it's completely dishonest and the
the common theme that i've noticed with
arguments for the left or all the
campaigns that they run
are all the virtue signaling and the
social issues that they claim to to
fight for
they are all based on a foundation of
dishonesty
and then we come in and we try to give
them facts and they censor us
so if it's just goes to show that we're
the ones who are truly coming armed with
the facts with the statistics
with the real world examples of how
these things do not work things like
communism socialism gender theory
critical race theory we come armed with
facts
they come armed with illogical feeling
based
arguments that have nothing to do with
reality or how our society actually
works
and i know we're going to get into this
more but a lot of it also comes down to
something that michael knowles talks
about a lot and it's about
the way that the left and a lot of these
mainstream mean
mainstream news media outlets or
children's book writers everything
how the left really uses language to
they they're constantly changing
language to benefit them so we see it
clearly with this che guevara book where
they don't even
they're leaving things out the way that
they talk about um
him being a you know political
revolutionary but what does that really
entail
and who did he hurt in the process so
we're constantly seeing that and i know
we're going to get into a little bit
more but
something that's really interesting to
notice is how they're using language at
this point it's the most dangerous tool
and you have to call it out every time
you see it i know we sound very very
redundant on this program but we will
continue to do so we will continue to
talk about it if you allow somebody to
take over your language
to change words and then compel your
language to fit into a certain box
you have lost the war you've done it if
you concede ground
especially language ground to the left
you will have nothing left
and when we start to change the way that
we view the world when we change our
colloquialisms when we change the way
that we speak
we have changed everything and we have
now molded ourselves to their ideology
and that is something that cannot happen
now
um real quick i mean just talking about
language like i'm i'm a more language
brain
person oh gosh i started playing a video
yeah i think
too much language guys yeah too much
that was language coming in i almost let
out some bad language
but the the you know i i grew up kind of
growing um i grew up moving around the
world and
ended up accidentally learning a couple
of foreign languages because my parents
put me in brazilian school if it's not
accurate and what the left is constantly
doing by playing these word games and
redefining terms
is they're trying to make it more
confusing in order to
nail them down on what they believe and
that's what we're about to see in this
in this video with joy reid
um in just a minute how they they
redefine terms they obfuscate reality by
by twisting words or changing
definitions and we see it all the time
changing what it is to be a man and or a
woman changing gender changing all
every every possible thing you can think
of that um and
changing what it like what am american
in our history means
and the if we're if we if the language
has to
be accurate and convey meaning and and
when you
can misconstrue that it destroys the
purpose of language itself
right and it has to be so confusing for
kids i mean exactly
kids growing up in these days like they
don't even know what pronouns to use for
people let alone the meaning behind
behind simple words are changing every
day based off the narrative that the
left is pushing and that's kind of
kind of scary and we're seeing it in
children's books again yeah again
children are the forefront of the
battleground if you can change
children's language and you can meld it
to whatever you want you have changed
the world because they will grow up and
that's what they will know and that's
what they will use
so uh it sucks to to know that
children are the ones who are the most
vulnerable in this fight but it
puts urgency on the things that we do it
puts passion into the things that we do
and i hope that it gives you guys
passion that when you see these things
you call them out and you call them out
loudly
because that's who you're fighting for
you're fighting for your children they
should get to experience america the way
it was meant to be experienced
not under the guidelines of some leftist
politician
establishment bureaucrat who wants to
mold the world to his view
now somebody who's trying to to fight
this battle along with us is christopher
ruffo and he was recently on the joy
read show
if any of you are familiar with joy reid
she is completely
insufferable i mean absolutely horrible
and i'm going to show you about a 9 10
minute interview that he did with a
we'll pause in between to sort of give
our rebuttals and try to back
christopher up because she did not give
him the time
nor the airspace to even put in a full
sentence so
uh if you're not familiar with
christopher ruffo he's an expert on
critical race theory he's currently
working at the manhattan institute and
calling out these uh
these heinous ideologies that are
popping up everywhere now in all of our
institutions especially
public schools with our children so he
got on joy reid
joy reed is not a fan of christopher
ruffo by any means but she is a massive
fan of critical race theory
so here is their little back and forth
shall we call it debate i don't think
we'll call it a debate once you finish
watching this but here we go
you say that ken that uh ibram candy dr
ibrahim kennedy's a college professor
you call him the guru of critical
race theory so we reached out to him
i've interviewed him before
so we reached out to him because you say
he's the guru of critical racer you name
him a lot in a lot of your
both in your manifesto or your your
talking points memo but also in your
video
we reached out to him we asked him we
asked him if he's a critical race
theorist he said i admire critical race
theory but i don't identify as a
critical race theorist
i'm not a legal scholar so i wasn't
trained on critical race theory i'm a
historian
and chris would know this if he actually
read my work or understood that critical
race theory is taught in law schools
i didn't attend law school which is
where critical race theory is taught
it's really the only place that's taught
we we
nbc has looked into everywhere uh
so right out the gate we're starting
with falsehoods and lies
so uh ibram kendy has said many many
times that the foundation of the work
that he does as an individual and as a
historian is based around critical race
theory it finds its foundations in
critical race theory
so why he may while he may not identify
as a critical race theorist
all of his work is founded on critical
race theory and the ideas
that are expressed in critical race
theory and to somehow think
that critical race theory is only uh
consigned to
law schools is a complete and utter lie
we've shown how many times on this
program
parents going up to their school boards
and bringing real world examples
of the critical race theory that is
being taught to their kids look at your
children going into kindergarten
and being separated by their race and
their pronouns and being told that they
are going to be put into affinity groups
that represent their race and their
ethnic background it's
it's most definitely not consigned to
law schools it is everywhere in america
and this goes back to what we were
saying about language language when it
comes to the left they're
completely shifting it when they can so
critical race theory now that it's
received the negative attention that it
has by conservatives that are now
raging a war on it we should be um now
they're trying to relabel it well it's
not critical race theory that's
that's just a law practice or that's a
theory in law we don't actually teach
that in schools it's like
yeah you may not flat out say it's
critical race theory but we have all
these examples of the principles seeping
into
public education curriculum right so you
have them they're masking it as things
like
color blindness is racist and white
fragility they're just using other ways
to mask
ultimately what critical race theory is
yeah here's what happened is people like
christopher ruffo and james lindsey
really brought a lot of awareness of
this and shed light on the fact that all
of these
things the woke stuff that we're seeing
in culture and seeing indoctrination in
schools
traces back to this ideology and it has
a name and it's called critical race
theory
but they don't want it they don't want
us to be able to name what it is
because if you can name it then you can
start to build arguments against it so
what they're doing is saying what you're
calling critical race theories just this
little box in the in the legal studies
and it's just a way of
looking at the world and it's not really
it um and they're they're pl
that's exactly what we're talking about
before they're playing these word games
to to try to instead of rather having to
debate their ideas
and justify them and and make sure that
their ideas are worth their assault
they can't they don't have a leg to
stand on because it's this religious
cult
so instead they're out they're out there
playing these word games and saying well
well
you know what you're fighting is this
weird thing in the corner why are you
calling everything this thing it's
completely dishonest interview and
it's totally should be exposed right
that's what they do we enter in a game
with the left and then when we start to
win when we start to call them out when
we get it worldly known that this is
what they're doing
they changed the name of the game oh we
weren't we weren't playing that in the
first place we're doing
something else so let's see the rest of
this interview and see the other bs that
joy reads
tries to spin on chris ruffo and it's
not taught in elemental but hold on a
second
this is the second thing he said which
is strange to me that you would let me
respond because
it's not a monologue this should be a
dialogue right am i right it's well it's
my show so he is
how i want to do it so let me let me
read you one more quote from him
because you've made a lot of claims
about
critical race theory saying that white
americans are inherently racist
that that racism is inherent to
whiteness
um and that is one of the core charges
that you're making
about you know these sort of what you
consider like sort of woke studies in
school this is what abram candy has said
in his own words
he said we've been taught that racist is
essential to who a person is
it's a fixed category it's in someone's
heart that's one of the reasons why
people are unwilling to
or unable to admit the times in which
they're being racist because it's not
just admitting
i was being racist in that moment
basically we're tattooing racist on our
forehead
for the rest of our lives isn't that the
opposite of what you're arguing
well i'll say two things first of all
it's very interesting to me that so many
people are now running away from the
race of
the the label of critical race theory
but he's not true
hold on i'm gonna quote two critical
race theorists barbara applebong with
the book being good being white she says
quote
all white people are racist uh robin
d'angelo who's another
critical whiteness study studies
white identity is inherently racist so
what you're doing is you're playing a
series of word games
you know that critical whiteness studies
is a subfield of critical race theory no
it's not
look how he maintains his cool while
he's just berated by this woman who
won't let him get a word in edgewide and
edgewatch and everything that he says is
completely on point and everything that
she says is a lie
yeah and i love how she's like i'm here
to interview you but you're not going to
say anything and she literally points
her finger at him like while he's trying
to get a sentence across and he she just
cuts him off every time like i don't
know how he keeps this cool i can't even
keep michael watching it
yeah one of these people came for an
honest debate and the other one came to
spring a trap on the other one
and i think it's pretty clear which is
which right and let's go ahead and
debunk some of the things that she says
right here and now because like
like i've said many many times you
cannot allow the left to get away with
lies
i've got an article right here right now
from the center for review
for renewing america let's look at his
claim that
uh barbara applebaum and abram kendy and
robin d'angelo
all use critical race theory as a
foundation in the books that they write
and the ideology that they preach
right here popular books that use crt
principles and ideas
what are the names on this list right
here on this article are you guys seeing
them
boom there's abram candy there's robin
d'angelo
and oh my goodness would you believe it
there is barbara applebaum
it's almost like what chris ruffo is
saying is absolutely true
that all of their ideas are founded in
critical race theory and they have been
very adamant and open about the fact
that they are
so let's continue watching this
interview if we can even call it that
these things are all deeply interrelated
they're not and i'm not gonna let you
play word games and this is
this is really i think the most
essential thing hold on hold on no no no
no let me respond at least once i
haven't gotten the
no because i'm i'm not gonna let you see
one of the things that i know you
probably never watching on tv just you
know we didn't know who each other were
you know not too long ago
but i don't allow people to just make up
and say lies on the show it's just not
really right to do that and let people
hear it but hold on
deangelo is not a critical race theorist
and i want everyone to know that robin d
i i don't know who the other woman is
but she's not but let's just go through
a minute because
white i don't know who the other woman
is but she's not
that should have been the end of this
entire interview that should have been
the end
cut cut the cord you're no longer on tv
anymore
i don't even know who this woman is but
she's not
how can you say something so utterly
disingenuous and just sit there and just
keep talking
i love how she's also trying to cover
her ground by saying these people aren't
critical race theorists right so they're
not experts in the field but i'm going
to still
use and support what they're saying but
they're not critical race theory right
they're not one of the few people who
invented the ideology therefore they are
not critical race theories therefore
they're not liable
exactly like what let's keep going guys
igneous you know and racist rightness
and racism
where did the term whiteness come from
sure and i think this is an important
point and i hope you let me actually get
a full paragraph out about this go for
it
whiteness whiteness is the idea that
there is some kind of metaphysical
category in the world
that all white people are reducible to
this essence of whiteness then what
happens is
they load all of these negative
connotations they say that whiteness is
by definition
that includes white fragility includes
white privilege include includes
internalized white superiority
and then what they do is they try to
impose these reductive racial categories
onto individuals
and i actually agree with kenny's
approach i think that we should fight
race essentialism
but the problem is that critical to race
theory enshrines race essentialism but
you
see it in schools and and i'll give you
three examples of political race they're
being taught in schools hold on one
second
california no no
don't expose that what i'm saying is not
true no no no no
everything else you can say because i i
have i have my pre-written notes right
here so that i can debunk you with my
lies
but once you get into actual real-world
examples of critical race theory
infiltrating our schools and
indoctrinating our children
i'm not going to allow you to speak no
no facts necessary let's keep going
in your talking points sir chris these
are in your talking points and i know
what you're going to say because you
said it with
mark lamont hill you repeat these same
things they're in this manifesto people
can read
all mine let me just go for a second on
the subject of whiteness are you aware
since you say that i guess you're
you're sort of a quasi historian in your
in your thinking that whiteness
was actually formed in the united states
that whiteness didn't even exist as a
thing
europeans were all european they
consider themselves italian or polish or
whatever
when when the colonists came here they
actually created the idea of whiteness
this is from the uh
from the smithsonian as a way to
distinguish themselves
from what they call the savages the
natives and from black people from
africans
who even if you had a little african in
you you know if you're plessy who's
seven eights white
if you are african in any aspect that
you are reduced of rights
so people that you don't like that are
doing this sort of wokeness training are
saying
whiteness has always had power there
used to be a saying of free white
and 18. it was commonly said in the 50s
and 60s 40s 50s
another pause do you guys notice and we
show you guys a lot of videos regarding
critical race theory regarding
race relations in america period do you
notice how the left always tends to lean
on the 1800s and
the early 1900s and that's the only real
evidence that they can give you of any
systemic racism here in america
and there is not a conservative in the
world who will not sit you down and say
yes that is true that did exist
but it does not exist now yet they still
use these crutches of times of what
nearly
nearly a hundred years ago now to make
an argument for how today's legislation
and how today's institutions should be
shaped
you clearly haven't heard of a certain
actor on a show called empire
who was minding his own business walking
down the street frigid streets of
chicago in negative 20 degree weather
holding a subway sandwich
and was jumped by two racists
this is factual information yes the
factual smolit case
exactly yeah i'm surprised in a
garage of a certain so racism is real in
america today is the point
racism is real especially when you hire
your own actors to carry out your your
racist fantasy
i it's very very real no it's true and
we somebody uh prageru
shout out to our social team and i mean
maybe this is not us originally i don't
want to give us
too much credit if we didn't write it
but we've posted it at least this
this snippet that said um the the demand
for racism in america exceeds the supply
and it got a ton of shares on facebook
but it's like
it's so true and it's because these
ideas that all trace back to critical
race theory
are all are have permeated our
universities they've permeated hollywood
they've permeated the mainstream media
and they're
they've become a mainstay in our culture
to where
they're just everywhere right and she
she points out a quote and i didn't get
to talk about this
earlier in the clip but she points out a
quote from abram kendy where he talks
about how
racism is truly in the heart it's
inescapable and to admit that you how
you you have ties to racism admits that
you have racism in your heart
do you hear how dishonest that is do you
hear how the left is trying to
pigeonhole you because as a white person
if you fall for this sort of ideology
you are admitting that you are
inherently racist
and they will they will sit here and say
oh no we don't think that white people
are all racist i never said that
even though they said that time and time
again believing that racism is
foundational to your heart is believing
that you are inherently racist
so do not fall for that trick because it
is an effort to dehumanize you as
a person and say that you are not worthy
of speaking in the spaces that they are
in
and you are not worthy of making any
sort of opinion on their their political
ideology and the legislation that they
want to put forth in this world
that is how they pigeonhole you and now
it's it's led to
re-segregation we are seeing it where
these white liberals
are taking on that taking that on and
feeling like well they have guilt and so
now it's better for them to get out of
black spaces
and separate them in honor of black
people and it's complete segregation all
over again
and it's an effort to make it so that
they cannot be criticized
and there is a famous quote that if you
want to know who is in power in your
nation you need to look at who you
cannot criticize
and all of this is an effort for them to
to be
unworthy of any sort of criticism
because racism
because systemic oppression because jim
crow because civil war
it is so ridiculous but let's keep going
because
joy reid if anything just has much more
to say
60s so whiteness has power so people who
don't who want to decouple whiteness
from power
that's what you're annoyed by right let
me play a little bit of what you said
you did a speech hold on you did a
speech
at the clermont institute in which you
talked a little bit about
how you really feel about the academics
of it here it is um
this is cut uh i think this is uh
is it three yeah go for it play it
i'm a white guy fighting critical race
theory do you identify as white
i mean i'm an italian american so you
tell me lumping people
into white black asian as you suggested
is such a crude and broad categorization
there's these like very uh kind of
pathetic
and very you know angry graduate
students
uh that that you know try to fight me on
these highly technical
uh you know hegel interpretations and
it's like i don't have time for this i
don't give a
about this stuff so you don't give an s
about this stuff
you're it's so funny that she plays the
clip of him
literally epitomizing what she is doing
to him right now
they are haggling him on a technicality
and her technicality is the term
critical race theorist
look at how many people he brings up who
of course claim that critical race
theory is a foundation in their work but
she goes well they don't identify as
critical race theorists
wow it looks to me like you're haggling
him on a technicality
and then she uses his whole i don't give
a s when he's referring to those people
to say that he doesn't give an ass about
the work of which he has dedicated his
entire career to
his entire time and he's now dedicating
his time to that at the manhattan
institute
she is trying to pigeonhole him and
she's trying so hard and he does not let
it work
let's keep going we're really just
having a campaign
to take everything that annoys white
americans and white concerns no that's
not right you want to make a campaign
and stuff everything is
what i don't think is right is that
forcing eight-year-olds in cupertino
california to deconstruct their racial
identities
out lies when you hear them that is
critical race theory critical race
theory is a marxist ideology
not in class but in race and it
identifies white people as the ones who
are in power and it identifies people of
color as the ones who are not
so when your kid goes to school and
they're separated into affinity groups
and they're labeling each other based on
their ethnic identity
that is absolutely critical race theory
he even gives her an exact example in
cupertino california but don't worry
she's not going to acknowledge it she
just knows where it's right
it's a it's a distraction because we are
honing in
on the fact that your ideas suck and
they don't work in the real world and
they cause
pain and suffering and they mess up kid
little kids minds and they ruin lives
and they make that's why the suicide
rate is high in the trans community
because they racist
and it's it's yeah it doesn't work and
unlike
enlightenment uh liberalism and
judeo-christian values which is what
we're trying to
defend and espouse and no i just wanted
to read real quick this is
uh james lindsay points out this chapter
all the time it's an intro to the book
uh critical race theory and introduction
by richard delgado one of the founders
of critical race theory and he himself
says
unlike traditional approaches to civil
rights which favor incrementalism and
step-by-step progress like mlk
critical race theory calls into question
the very foundations of the liberal
order including equality theory
legal reasoning enlightenment
rationalism and the neutral principles
of con
constitutional law so the founders of
critical race theory themselves say
that we don't think the law should be
neutral we think it should prefer black
people who are oppressed over white
people we don't think that enlightening
irrationalism is a good thing an object
that's why where you hear this like
objectivity is white supremacy right
math is racist and all this stuff
they don't believe in those things and
they're saying that the quiet part out
loud from the get-go they're not
hiding this but the people now the new
tactic is
no no no that's not you know that's not
critical race theory with all the
manifestations of critical race theory
on critical race theory when in reality
that's exactly what they are you're just
trying to play word games to hide it
right because if you can get people to
admit that our institutions are racist
you can get them to admit that they
should be destroyed
and that is the ultimate goal of the
woke left they want to destroy
american institutions america tradition
american morals american values
and in doing so this is the way this is
their tactics
to get you to admit that in your heart
you're racist that at its very
foundation america is founded on white
supremacy because if america is founded
on nothing but white supremacy and
racism it does not deserve to be around
and we all know that that's not true the
left knows that that's not true
but they will continue to push it so
that they can shape this world into how
they would like to see it
now we're going to continue with this
interview i promise there's only about
three or four minutes left
if we're suffering through it guys we
can make it through this we can make it
through joy read and her shrill
uh annoying arguing intersectionality
theory which was invented by kimberly
it's a separate thing intersectionality
no it's not you had her on your show you
know this yeah
what i'm fighting against i'm fighting
against the manipulation of language
i'm fighting against you're fighting
against wokeness
with subversive content because
otherwise you just say whatever you want
and then you back away from it and you
dance around it yeah
but it's not going to happen parents all
over this country they know what's
happening in schools
they know what's happening in their
public institutions and you're seeing
people revolt against this divisive
identity politics
and you can dance all you want but
you're not going to stop people from
understanding what's happening
in their classrooms i actually
appreciate that you said that because
christopher
what you basically and you admit it
yourself
that you've taken all of these sort of
wokeness moments
corporate wokeness uh corporate sort of
woke money woke capital
the things that annoy conservatives and
you've stuffed it all into the
name critical eraser it's really like
it's it's like christopher ruffo theory
you stop
let's pause there uh so many untrue
things just happened on that again kudos
to christopher ruffo for keeping his
cool for calling this woman out at every
turn
that he actually has the opportunity to
and i love how he says you know what you
can keep dancing around this subject
matter but the people here in america
know what you're doing
they know the indoctrination that is
happening in their schools kudos to
chris ruffo
i'm sorry really quick i want to add
kudos to him because he did his research
before going on this interview
he saw that the um creator of the
concept of critical race theory
and intersectionality kimberly crenshaw
was just on her show
two days before he was right and i think
it throws her off you see her face kind
of get surprised when he drops that and
he could have gone in even deeper
but he doesn't really get the chance to
even say it but basically you have i had
to
i had to look this up so i just want to
lay this out for you because you're
probably confused with all these power
words intersectionality
critical race theory so essentially
intersectionality is the interconnected
nature
of social and political identity
according to kimberly crenshaw
and critical race theory examines how
intersectionality plays out in society
and law
and she says time after time in an
interview actually with joy reid
um but also in her own work that they're
both interconnected you can't really
have one without the other
right and chris ruffo did the the
brilliant act of after this interview
getting online and posting the receipts
and debunking joy reid right on the
internet for everybody to see
i'm going to show you some threads
before we finish up the interview here
he gets on and says
joy reid turned the gas light up to 100
tonight let's deconstruct you
here's some more receipts that chris
ruffo posted here's critical race theory
and introduction
written by richard delgado and uh gene i
don't know how to say
that last name there uh stefan sick
maybe
and here's critical white studies can
you look at the authors right there guys
i'm sure we can all read joy reid thinks
that we can't read
uh and dig in the jurassic park font
though it's kind of cool
right illiterate forgot joy reid
that's a chad book right there the
richard delgado ottawa is the one i just
quoted from by the way
well see that's great and look the same
authors who wrote critical race theory
wrote critical white studies earlier in
the interview she says
critical race theorists and the people
who support critical race theory do not
say that all white people are racist
oh my goodness do we have receipts here
this is from robin d'angelo and barbara
applebaum
all white people are racist he even did
he even highlighted it for you guys
he made this so easy for us what is that
all white people
are racist oh my goodness it's almost
like her
entire argument is crumbling right
before our eyes as often happens with
anything that the left says
reid also claims that ethnic studies
have nothing to do with critical race
theory
let's look at that ethnic studies
without critical race theory
it's not ethnic studies this is like an
epic takedown
oh it's an epic takedown look at this uc
santa cruz critical race theory and
ethnic studies
critical race theory and ethnic studies
gonzaga university
critical race theory and ethnic studies
the university of denver
i started thinking about how to rebrand
it now i know it has a negative
connotation so they're going to call it
something else within the next month or
two
right it's like it's so again
dumbfounding to me
that somebody can sit on public
television lie
in front of people's faces and expect
them not to call it out
and and to not do their research and the
tough part of me
of me reckoning with this is that a lot
of people are going to listen to what
this woman says and they're not going to
do their research
they're going to look at chris ruffo and
they go oh well that's a white cisgender
heterosexual man i don't want to listen
to anything that he has to say
that's the point they can't defend their
ideas you know in in a court
in like a market of a free market of
ideas they can't defend them
and so they have to play these word
games and distort reality and distort
the truth and make it about
and to them it's upholding the narrative
is more important
than finding the truth and if that is if
your worldview demands that you check
your brain at the door
and it's not not honestly look at the
way you're viewing the world and
asking honest questions um about it if
there are demands that you do that then
you might want to
you know take a second think a take a
second look at what you believe in and
make sure that what you believe in
allows you to be intellectually honest
and have a world view that actually
works yeah and you and you recognize
that when you watch these
these two people go head-to-head with
each other and i urge you to go uh
look at this interview on your own and
really deconstruct it because there's so
much stuff here to get into that we
we have not had the chance to get in
today but look at the difference between
their two personalities
and there's two points in which chris
has actually conceded
things that he said to her when she
mentioned that whiteness was created by
the europeans who came over and
colonized america
she goes i do agree with him on that
point but he's not doing it in the right
way and crt
is actually fighting and doing the exact
thing that he claims to be fighting
against
so you can tell when somebody is is well
tempered
and is really coming to truly debate
when they can concede points and say
things when they are actually true
even if it goes against his support of a
person
let's keep going
and then you can respond to it i'm going
to read you to you and then you respond
to it the activists are realizing that
their ideas once put into practice are
generating discontent which is you just
described
their racial coalition is also breaking
apart asian americans in particular
revolting against crt
which is really crystal roof out there
because you made it up uh is punishing
them more than any other group
then you said we have successfully
frozen their brand critical race theory
into the public conversation and are
steadily driving up negative perceptions
we will eventually turn it toxic as we
put all the various cultural insanities
under that brand
category the goal is to have the public
read
something crazy in the newspaper and
immediately think critical race there
we have decodified the term and will
re-co-divide it to annex the entire
range of cultural constructions that are
unpopular with americans
instead of just reading his own tweets
to him while he goes yep i did say that
yep
yep yep you could really you know use
the camera that's right in front of him
give him his shot
and let him talk yeah i think that would
be just as effective as you
putting three of his tweets on on your
page and reading them out to him
i also have to know what is kimberly
crenshaw thinking when she's saying
critical race theory
doesn't ex it's chris rooper theory at
this point right she's staying there you
know 30 cr
30 years into her career like yeah okay
yeah something that i've been creating
for decades doesn't exist and it's
actually chris ruffo theory
sure sure let's keep going aren't you
just taking
wokeness stuff that annoys you and
calling it critical race theory
no not not at all the idea of the
codification and decodification of
language comes from the critical
pedagogist paolo frere
and my strategy is to take now you're
doing pedagogy
christopher yes come on she doesn't she
clearly doesn't even know what the word
pedagogy means which is so funny to me
that
that is just a normal term it's it's
literally a noun and she's like now
you're doing pedagogy
as if it's a verb or something it's also
she's so
insulting to him can you imagine if it
was the other way around he was like
come on okay like it's so um belittling
that is the foundation of arguing with a
wulk leftist is that they try to
be uh they try to condescend to you and
they try to invalidate the fact that you
are even speaking
and it's a way of demoralizing you and
it's a way of demotivating you to even
speak with them
and that's why you hear this
condescending tone with her it's not
even critical race theory it's chris
ruffo theory you just made it up she
can't even let him
speak long enough without interjecting
and insulting him
because she knows that if he speaks
logical people will listen to him and
they will know that he is a
well-tempered man who only wants to give
them the truth
and that is why you hear her all the
time just interrupting him
talking over him not letting him get a
word in edgewise because if he does he
will be effective where she is not
right and notice she's playing this game
of continually talking about how he's
talking about critical race theory
instead of actually talking about the
ideas of critical race theory themselves
you know like she if you put if you put
her on the spot and we're like do you
believe that
whiteness is an evil force that makes
all people racist all white people
racist like if you start to
actually ask her about the belisa though
she's not allowing it to get to
what this stuff actually teaches and why
we're seeing it everywhere in our
culture today
she's taught making it a game a
dishonest game where even the things
that he's saying is like yeah i said
that but she's like recasting what he
says
just like the critical race theory
recast american history
it's all about reinterpreting making
making simple truths
very hard to see because they don't want
to wrestle with deal in the realm of
facts and reality they want to deal in
the realm in the world that they've
built right
on a previous stream will made this
amazing point when he's when you're
talking to people
don't give him that much i'm gonna i'm
gonna give will some credit guys
uh you're right i am right
here right now somebody's gotta do it
that's what will would say
uh but he makes this amazing point if
you if you want to get into a discussion
with somebody or debate and you want to
see whether or not
it's really worth your time or whether
or not you're going to get anywhere with
this
start with this one question and it's do
you love america i wish chris ruffa
would have interjected to joy reid right
now during this entire speech
and say joy reid do you love america and
just not say anything until she answers
the question
because i can nearly guarantee you she
would find some way to finagle her way
away from saying that she truly loves
this country
as would anybody who supports critical
race theory because again if you support
critical race theory you think that this
country is founded in racism yeah it's
ultimately an anti-american cult
right it's what it is and it's a whole
world view religion
that demands that you see america as
evil and needs to be dismantled and you
see all white people as racist and if
you're white
you see yourself as racist and you
should be ashamed of it and you need to
spend your life
uh groveling and apologizing to black
people and trying to lift them up in
society
through through the but all in the ways
that critical race theory demands
that you do and you know we want to help
chris ruffo in debunking this woman
right here
she calls him out and she says you know
what you're just using critical race
theory as an umbrella
term to throw anything that you
conservatives don't like underneath it
so that we can shout that we hate
critical race theory i want to show you
a little clip here
not a clip here an article here from the
americanbar.org.org
this is an organization from law school
which she claims critical race theory is
only present in law school
let me show you what it says here now
critical race theory is
for the most part an all-encompassing
term for most of the social issues that
we're experiencing right now in america
and this these this is a definition of
what critical race theory is and this is
based off of kimberly crenshaw
the the creator of critical race theory
in her own words let me show you here
it critiques how the social construction
of race and institutionalized racism
perpetuate a racial caste system that
relegates people of color to the bottom
tiers
now does the word cast system strike a
bell with you maybe a marxist spell with
you
she claims that critical race theory is
not marxist marxist they
divided people by class that was the
hierarchy it was through socioeconomic
status
now critical race theory is doing a
racial caste system where white people
are in the hierarchy
and and black people and people of color
are below them let's keep reading
crt also recognizes that race intersects
with other identities including
sexuality
gender identity and others critical race
theory recognizes that racism is not
a bygone relic of the past instead it
acknowledges
that the legacy of slavery segregation
and the imposition of second-class
citizenship on black americans and other
people of color
continue to permeate the social fabric
of this nation
no it doesn't no it doesn't uh we are
not
any different i'm no different than
sabrina i'm no different from taylor we
do not live in a racial
caste system and an important part of
this of that article that i just read
you
is that critical race theory intersects
with other identities including
sexuality
gender identity and others they don't
even stipulate what others because they
want to build this term out further for
us
they want to make critical race theory
an all-encompassing term for any social
issues that the left sees fit so when
you hear things about your kids also
being taught gender theory
and and being able to choose their
sexuality and their pronouns in school
that is also a remnant of critical race
theory it is actively part of crt
yeah and what they want to do is they
want to divide everyone whether it's by
your race by your sexuality the more
divisive they can get
the more that they can take down these
institutions right
so again don't concede to them and don't
admit we do not live in a systemically
racist country if you admit that
you you are admitting that you harbor
some form of hate towards america which
is exactly how they feel
let's hopefully close out this interview
my goodness i'm trying to get through
this guys
take these techniques and use them
against their own ideology
and i'll tell you joy my strategy has
been enormously successful according to
the economist
magazine poll 64 of americans now know
what critical race theory is no they
know it christmas
theory of which of which 58 of them
you made up your own you made my friend
you made up your own thing
you admitted you were going to do it and
i'm going to give you credit for one
thing
you did create your own thing not a lot
of guys in their 30s have created their
own thing
labeled it something that already
existed as a name
slap that brand name on it and turned it
into a successful political strategy
you've done that
it's creating a lot of hell at school
board meetings but you did accomplish
that so christopher ruffo
thank you man thank you for being here
well joyce i appreciate it and i'll give
you the position as the most uh
prestigious christopher ruffo theory
scholar
in the world i hope next time you give
me at least a chance to complete two
sentences
i think it'll be a lot more fun well not
if you're gonna try again next time
they were you're talking people can read
your talking points online because
they're online as well
you can read all of them right right i'm
i'm going to act like i was going to
give you a platform on my show and then
i'm going to put you on the show
and then i'm going to like put a camera
in front of you and like put a mic on
you and act like you're going to be able
to speak on my show and then i'm not
going to let you speak on my show
it's so cringy i can't handle it because
people can look on the internet and they
can just read what you have to say
but if you say it with a smile then it's
all fine exactly it's not belittling at
all
it doesn't matter christopher theory
thank you thank you for coming on my
show
it's so wide she could have honestly
just got on her show and just talked bad
about chris ruffo for 10 minutes instead
of having him on trying to debate her
and every time every time that he had
even even two seconds to say something
he said something extremely profound and
he said something extremely honest
throughout that entire ten minutes there
was not one single word of honesty from
joy reid
and it's also they refused to like they
refused to let you get to the point and
there's been multiple people
um coleman hughes challenged ibram
kennedy to a debate and it was all in
very good faith i believe robin
angela's been called to um to a debate
by very like
they're like hey we can do whatever
terms you want we'll you know any time
any place
we'll talk we'll talk to you and we just
want to explore these have an honest
exchange and ideas and like the tone was
very like inviting
but they can't defend these ideas and so
and when and in the rare cases that
they're in the same place and they're
pushed what do they do they play these
games and they obfuscate things and they
make
it they make it about what you're how
you're saying what you're saying and
all this kind of stuff instead of
actually defending the ideas because
they are indefensible right
notice how conservatives always show up
to the table whenever we are invited it
does not matter what platform we on it
doesn't matter if we're talking to
somebody who's like-minded or not
we always show up because when you are
armed with the truth there is
nothing that can be done against you
when you know
what is what is right and what is honest
there is nobody in this world
who can tell you something that defeats
you in a debate and that's exactly why
chris ruffo showed up on the show
i bet he knew going into this that this
was not going to be a pleasant
experience that he wasn't going to get a
word in edgewise but it doesn't matter
if you only speak for 30 seconds and
that 30 seconds is the only true
thing that comes through the whole
program you have done something profound
and you have done something amazing and
he took his time after
doing this interview with joy reid to go
and debunk everything that she said
and that's why i wanted to show you this
interview and we took most of the time
in the program to show you this because
we want to arm you
to be able to debunk people when they
bring up critical race theory because
she's very masterful
it's very masterful to say well that's
not critical race theory that's this or
that's something that you made up
we want to arm you with the facts and
the resources so that you can
confront people like this when they come
at you exactly you got to be able to see
you know when you see stuff the the
gender theory the critical race theory
in your kids curriculum and all that
kind of stuff
don't be afraid to call it what it is
and don't let them play these games
where they warm their way out of it and
say well that's not the real thing
because
it is what it is and it be you know you
need to watch videos like this we have
great
interviews with chris ruffa with james
lindsey on on at prageru that you can
get more info they each have their own
websites you should check them out and
educate yourself
now more than ever conservatives and
people who are standing against the
dominant narrative have an
uphill battle because it's easy for them
to repeat these talking points they
usually control
you know joy reid it was her show she
controlled the environment and the
atmosphere
they usually have the upper ground and
that's the only way that they'll ever
engage you and even when they do they
still use these
these crappy tactics to try to distort
everything so you
you have now more than ever you've got
to educate yourself you can't sit on the
sidelines you can't
just you know sit back and hope that it
all gets better you really need to know
what's going on in the world
so you know we're trying our best every
every day on this stream to
unpack these things and and point it out
where we see it and it's and it's not
about
we're trying to create sensationalism
we're we're pushing back when they're
pushing we're not giving up the ground
we're not
letting you indoctrinate our kids and
we're not letting you take you know
take our culture and and really destroy
the ultimate goal of dismantling america
we're not
we're not having it we're pushing back
and educate yourself so you can too
right any any final words sabrina yeah
if you find rewards um
i mean couldn't say it better than what
you guys did but i'm gonna i'm gonna say
it
the way that i want to but um so i mean
it's really dangerous if you're
wondering how as a society we got to
this point that we're at
especially in 2020 2021 it's because a
lot of
weak and scared people just let things
go
they were too scared to speak up they
was too scared to attend their school
board meetings when they noticed these
things that were being brought to the
table and i'm so proud of the amazing
people that
are going viral that are out there doing
this um
but if you don't want it to get worse
you know i'm i'm eight months pregnant i
am
very concerned about the school system
that my child may enter one day
um and so it's we need more parents like
this that are speaking out against
critical race theory even if you're not
a parent but you're seeing these things
in your communities you need to speak
out because we can't afford to just
passively let this happen because
otherwise the left wins as uh craig rcmo
says
right and they are they're winning
