“The State of Blackness” is in “crisis” due to Republican states passing laws that restrict the teaching of critical race theory as well as other conservative policies, a panel at Elon University concluded recently.

“The school-to-prison pipeline, the opportunity gap, the anti-Blackness all shrouded in false rage about indoctrination,” Professor Cherrel Dyce said at the Oct. 3 panel.
