  • Bad History: Original Zinn
    Howard Zinn's one-sided polemic version of U.S. history has become inexplicably influential in the teaching of U.S. history. Don't let this happen again!
  • Inequality

  • Definitions, part 3 (CRT and Systemic Racism)
    Defining Systemic Racism and Critical Race Theory (CRT). Contrasting the two, and discussing some other ways the term CRT is used.

  • Recapitulation (Anti-postmodernism)
