Editing Critical Race Theory (section)

== <span style="color: #FFFFFF;">Remembering</span> ==
* '''Critical Race Theory (CRT)''' — A framework used to analyze how race and racism are embedded in legal systems and power structures.
* '''Systemic Racism''' — Racism that is built into the "Rules" of an organization or country (e.g., Bank lending rules that favor certain neighborhoods).
* '''Intersectionality''' — The overlapping of social identities (Race, Gender, Class) to create unique experiences of discrimination.
* '''Interest Convergence''' — Derrick Bell's idea that the powerful only help marginalized groups when it also helps themselves.
* '''The Social Construction of Race''' — The fact that "Race" is not a biological truth, but a category "Invented" by society to justify power.
* '''Color-Blindness''' — The belief that "Not seeing race" is the solution to racism (CRT argues this "Hides" the problem rather than fixing it).
* '''Microaggression''' — A subtle, everyday comment or action that (often unintentionally) communicates bias against a marginalized group.
* '''Whiteness''' — The study of how being "White" is treated as the "Universal Default" in Western society.
* '''Critical Race Realism''' — The belief that progress in racial justice is not a straight line, but a series of "Ups and Downs" that must be constantly fought for.
