Charles Love - Race Crazy: BLM, 1619, and the Progressive Racism Movement

Advance Praise for Race C razy

Most of us think we understand Black Lives Matter. We dont. Charles Love has delved into Black Lives Matter and found there is much more to the group and the movement than almost any of us know. For the people BLM ostensibly serves, Love has a warning: It is likely they do not know the extent to which Black Lives Matter is fighting against their interests. This is one of the most important books at this perilous moment in American history.

Charles Loves new book Race Crazy is a must-read to understand how truly dangerous the BLM movement and The 1619 Project are to the future of this country. Instead of offering solutions, BLM foments the fear and resentment that only exacerbate the problems facing everyday black Americans. Mr. Love offers us all a way to fight back.

Who is Black Lives Matter actually helping? What is the real impact on black Americans of The 1619 Project? Charles Loves Race Crazy takes a deep dive into the philosophy, funding, and objectives of BLM and the impact on people of color of the thoroughly fraudulent 1619 Project. It could not come at a better time. African Americans across the nation need to squelch these anti-black and anti-American initiatives while they still have the freedom to do so.

Race craziness is a problem affecting too many Americans and this book is long overdue in the discussion of racism in America. Where is that honest conversation so many people claim to want to have? What we get instead is media-sponsored narratives followed by proclamations of racism on everything. Hard work, math, God, and black holes are but a few of the things deemed racist by the propagandists and other accusers. In Loves book, he provides the road map to start the conversation we should be having. Race Crazy explores the perpetual cycle of name calling and misinformation and puts into context the BLM movement and the 1619 Project from a truthful perspective.

Charles Love separates rhetoric from reality in his new book, Race Crazy, where he addresses Black Lives Matter, The 1619 Project, and the new progressive racism movement. The book is deeply researched and eloquently makes the case for American principles. As our nation is consumed by racial politics, Love offers clarity, insight, and commitment to policies that would make the country betternot drag it backward.

With his new book Race Crazy , Charles Love takes his place among a new wave of Black thinkers questioning the tactics, logic, and conclusions, of todays woke movement. The book opens by asking a very simple and important question: when exactlyat least in the modern eradid Americans become absolutely obsessed with emphasizing racial differences? Further, why would any of us expect the things he discusses, such as sorting schoolchildren by race or arguing about the exact percentage of minority superheroes in comic books, will produce a better and less conflicted society? No one could agree with every one of any authors conclusions, but Love makes a very solid case that America would be better served by a return to trying our best for color blindness than by todays guilty, obsessive racial bean counting. Read his book, and listen to our podcast!

Charles Love has written a beautiful and highly stylized work that can truly be described as death by impeccable logic and reason to BLM and The 1619 Project. This book is a brilliant tour de force that identifies and then destroys with surgical precision the false claims made by both movements. More importantly, Charles Love has exposed the egregious harm they inflict on the moral reputation of all black Americansthe nefarious indictment they make against America as an evil country. Love sets the record straight in debunking these shibboleths and, in the process, restores grandeur and honor to America, and reminds us of the promise of hope, redemption, and prosperity she delivers to those blessed to live up to her name.

To the youth being harmed and led astray by the progressive racism movement. I hope this can serve as a tool to overcome the heightened focus on immutable traits and encourage free thinking.

Contents

Our country has gone race crazy. Race has become an obsession, and those pushing this madness are leading the country into division and decline. It is important to take a nuanced approach when addressing societys biggest problems; however, our shift to an all-encompassing race focus has propelled our national conversations outside the realm of rational thinking.

We must stop pretending that this lunacy is moral, fair, legal, or helpful to blacks.

Much of this focus on race is being infiltrated into the culture through our education system. From K-12 schools, where our impressionable children spend their formative years, to the hallowed halls of our institutions of higher learning, administrators have decided that blacks are different from others and therefore should be treated differently. The negative impact of years of lowering standards, affirmative action admissions, and racially biased grade manipulations have harmed the education of blacks, their likelihood of graduation, and their prospects for post-college success. These race-conscious biases also set a precedent for todays far more radical race-based discrimination.

At UCLA, a professor was suspended for refusing to cancel final exams for black students after George Floyd was killed.

The 1960s Civil Rights movement, championed by Dr. Martin Luther King and other courageous advocates of racial equality, has been stood on its head. In our now race-obsessed society, ones identitylong regarded as personal and self-createdhas reverted to being tribal and genetically determined.

How race crazy have things become? There was the judge who ruled a black defendant could not get a fair trial because there were portraits of white judges in the courtroom
