Critical Race Theory – what is it and why should we care about it? This week, Steve and the gang sit down with author Ed Uszynski to discuss the controversial topic. Ed’s new book is called "Untangling Critical Race Theory: What Christians Need to Know and Why It Matters" (https://amzn.to/4bdgrRc – @InterVarsityPress).
In his book, Ed says that we can benefit from CRT proponents' observations without embracing their solutions. Agree or Disagree? Share your thoughts in the Comments.
