Former Housing and Urban Development Department Secretary Dr. Ben Carson on Sunday blasted Critical Race Theory, calling it a “bunch of garbage.”
Carson told Newsmax TV’s “Wake Up America” that Critical Race Theory was “an attempt to use race as a mechanism for redefining our society.” He warned the teaching could divide the American people and thus destroy the country from within.
“It’s an attempt to use race as a mechanism for redefining our society — redefining what it was based on and how it impacts everybody, and it wants our people to believe that your race is the most critical determinant of who you are and what happens to you in our society. In other words, it’s a bunch of garbage,” Carson emphasized.
“You know, the only thing that can really destroy our country — our country is a magnificent place. It can’t be destroyed by Russia or China or Iran or North Korea, but it can be destroyed from within,” he added.
“There’s no question about that. That’s what Jesus meant when he said a house divided can’t stand. Lincoln reiterated that. And we need to recognize that we, the American people, are not enemies.”

yep , Theories are mostly Crap
Why don’t we ever hear about racial differences or grievances from hundreds of years ago of slavery from all the other countries in this world, immigrants, etc?
New Zealand won’t even let the obese immigrate.
I like Ben Carson. A wise man.
It is a bunch of garbage and Carson’s approach is the way to address it.
Butt, butt, we have to have a conversaaaaation!!
If everyone had the intelligence, integrity, and demeanor of Dr. Carson we would not NEED a government.
Communistic claptrap
He’s lived through many changes...and he knows the truth.
He reminds me of another great man I admire greatly: Booker T. Washington.
Dr. Carson certainly came from impoverished family, but his mother worked hard. He knows where you can go in this country if you have a will to go: Anywhere.
Dr. Carson was my first choice back in 2016. He was also one of the first to endorse Donald J. Trump.
