This is the same man who talks in circles on the concept of “racism,” a concept upon which all of his writings depend: At the Aspen Ideas Festival in 2019, when asked to define racism, Kendi earnestly answered: “[It is] a collection of racist policies that lead to racial inequity, that are substantiated by racist ideas.”

Please tell me you’re not just now figuring out that he’s a con man, and not a very good one at that.
Bill I knew he was misguided as soon as I read his theory that a disparity ALWAYS means that there is racism at work. Not as many “black” oboe players as “white” ones? That means racism, per Kendi, as though different groups of people might not have developed different constellations of interests. I was charitably thinking that Kendi was sincere in his misguided unsubstantiated beliefs until he pulled that recent Tweet. Pulling that Tweet proves that he is clearly situated in con man territory.
