Hey Elliot,

I don't have much to add, because I can only think of positive things to say about this piece of yours...and most of them have been said, already, by other commentors.

I will take this opportunity to "pimp out" my own op-ed piece from last fall (which I realize you might have already seen...but for those who haven't, I encourage them to check it out), where I explore some ways in which reasonable voices can take control of the CRT narrative:

Regarding CRT and possibly several other issues, we should really consider setting up a virtual "salon" where writers on Medium who value critical thought and nuance (eliminating reductionism) can have some debates/dialogue/discussions on these sorts of issues (CRT included).
