Your discussion should always be driven by an attempt to clarify or problematize your own position regarding the issue at stake (What is at stake in this question, exactly?). This very attempt to ‘clarify or problematize’ is what will bring general cohesion to your paper. Your paper must be analytic, not only descriptive.

Evaluation criteria:

**The following question is to be answered…please pay close attention to all of the following information.
Do not use any outside sources.

What is meant by Critical Race Theory? How does it interrogate the functioning of racism in society? In what ways does it support the anti-racist struggle of individuals, groups and communities?

Your answer will provide multiple examples that will illustrate the originality of CRT through its main tenets and the solutions it proposes. Pay attention to the ways in which CRT bridges different levels of interactions (individual, groups, and communities).
