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.

Famous quotes containing the word fields:

    On fields all drenched with blood he made his record in war, abstained from lawless violence when left on the plantation, and received his freedom in peace with moderation. But he holds in this Republic the position of an alien race among a people impatient of a rival. And in the eyes of some it seems that no valor redeems him, no social advancement nor individual development wipes off the ban which clings to him.
    Frances Ellen Watkins Harper (1825–1911)
