One is that systemic/structural racism is not the only, or even the primary, explanation for inequities. If you have engaged in such conversations lately, you have learned there is no such thing as brotherly disagreement on this issue. On these matters, there is right and there is wrong. More accurately, there is the CRT view on the one hand, and some version of white fragility, “privilege-preserving epistemic pushback,”7 or some other modern CSJ disorder on the other. This is where the circular reasoning comes in.
