The ritual of repeated “reckonings” hasn’t changed abuses by cops.

Republican Herschel Walker and Democrat Raphael Warnock are facing off in November. Both men are Black. This does not mean—contra New York Times pundit Frank Bruni—that race isn’t a factor.

Black Americans largely want the same things that white people do. So why are their demands treated as extreme?

The conservative hysteria over critical race theory is ultimately a refusal to acknowledge that the country’s classrooms have always taught a white-centric view of U.S. history.
