6. Reid claimed that critical pedagogy isn't related to critical race theory. In reality, critical race theory, like the original neo-Marxism, has two components: theory and praxis.

As I predicted, we have frozen the brand "critical race theory" and driven up its negatives. According to The Economist, 64% of Americans now know about critical race theory, of which 58% have an unfavorable view, including 72% of independents who think it's "bad for America."
