Compare and contrast critical theories of race with critical theories of race and racism.
What will be an ideal response?
•?Critical race theory is centered in the study of law and its relationship to the perpetuation of racial domination.
•?Critical theories of race and racism (CTRR) have much in common with critical race theory, including the goal of dealing with social injustices, the reduction or elimination of social inequalities, and a strong focus on intersectionality.
•?CTRR are rooted much more in the social sciences, including sociology, than is critical race theory with its base in legal scholarship and activism. This difference serves to sensitize CTRR to and involve them in cutting-edge issues in theory such as the relationship between race and racism and agency-structure, political economy, and globalization
