Bob Woodson has a quick opinion on Critical Race Theory, a framework of ideas that maintains white supremacy is embedded in all aspects of American life. Woodson calls it the ânew racismâ and, he says, its destructive ideology is worse than any previous forms of racism. These comments are taken from a podcast with Carrie Sheffield that Woodson participated in last December, âBob Woodson: Critical Race Theory is âmore lethal than the old racism.'â Woodsonâs voice is one deeply invested in the issue, as his Woodson Foundation has practiced advocacy for low-income and disadvantaged individuals since he founded the organization in 1981. In fact, Woodsonâs work as a civil rights leader and as someone who has offered advice and assistance to disadvantaged populations has given him a clear perspective on the impact of Critical Race Theory (CRT).
