CRT, in short, is an academic framework for looking at racism as systems, not an individual flaw.

The Republican ‘War Room’: Inside Steve Bannon’s effort to galvanize the right

The show has encouraged those on the far right to, as one guest laid out earlier this year, “invade” the Republican Party by becoming local GOP precinct committee officers — an effort that has gained momentum since Trump left office. But the show’s central focus has been China, specifically examining the role the Chinese government played in the pandemic.
