Critical race theory also helps those of us that maybe have had a hard time looking at life through the lens of another person's eyes walking in their shoes. And it helps you establish a basis for which to continue to learn and continue to understand how other people go about their lives over the last four years. And I focus on that because politically we've seen a lot happen, maybe a little more than four years. I have seen on the Internet a lot
