(Natural News) Critical Race Theory, the idea which forces people to not say certain things or avoid taking certain stances may infringe on people’s civil and constitutional rights. This is according to Dr. Carol Swain, a former professor of political science and law at Princeton University and Vanderbilt University.

The driving force behind Critical Race Theory is the idea that the people of the world are divided into oppressors and the oppressed. In the United States, “all white people are considered oppressors who benefit from undeserved advantages,” said Swain in an interview with the Epoch Times.

“[Whites] are deemed guilty of having set up a system of systemic racism,” she continued. “The demonization of one group of people because of the color of their skin is something that is discriminatory.”

Civil Rights Act protects people against having Critical Race Theory forced on them

In her interview with the Epoch Times,  Swain pointed out that white people who’re forced into Critical Race Theory-based training do not realize that they’re protected in the same way that black people are protected. This is thanks to the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, skin color, religion, national origin and disability, Swain explained.

“We’re not a country where it’s acceptable to bully and shame people because of the color of their skin,” she pointed out.

She explained that Critical Race Theory can create a hostile environment at work or may cause psychological harm to children at school. On the latter, she noted that parents have reported depression, trauma or other problems in their children who’d been told that, because of the fact that their ancestors inflicted harm or just because of their whiteness, they are also guilty of oppression. (Related: Critical race theory is just anti-white racism.)

In addition, Swain also pointed out that the Equal Protection Clause of the 14th Amendment of the United States Constitution guarantees certain protection to all people, regardless of whether or not they’re American citizens.

Finally, she pointed out that, if a public institution such as a school tries to restrict people’s speech or behavior, it may also count as a violation of the First Amendment.
