Critical Race Theory - Offshoot Fields

Offshoot Fields

Within critical race theory, various sub-groupings have emerged to focus on issues that fall outside the black-white paradigm of race relations as well as issues that relate to the intersection of race with issues of gender, sexuality, class and other social structures. See for example, critical race feminism (CRF), Latino critical race studies (LatCrit) Asian American critical race studies (AsianCrit) and American Indian critical race studies (sometimes called TribalCrit).

Critical race theory has also begun to spawn research that looks at understandings of race outside the United States.
