  • Critical Race Theory (CRT) began as a response to critical legal studies. The earliest writings on Critical Race Theory can be traced to the works of Derrick Bell in the 1960s. CRT is concerned with racism, racial subordination and discrimination. It emphasizes the socially constructed nature of race and considers judicial conclusions to be the result of the workings of social phenomena but sees race as a primary factor. Analyzing racial inequity as the social construction of race and discrimination are present in the scholarship of such established critical race theorists as Derrick Bell, Kimberlé Williams Crenshaw, Richard Delgado, Neil Gotanda, Cheryl I. Harris, Charles Lawrence III, Mari Matsuda, and Patricia J. Williams in the legal field. In the field of education, notable scholars include Gloria Ladson-Billings, George Noblit, Laurence Parker, Daniel Solórzano and William Tate and a second wave of CRT in education scholars, Thandeka Chapman, Adrienne Dixson, Jamel Donnor, Garrett A. Duncan, Marvin Lynn, Celia Rousseau, David Stovall, Michael E. Jennings and Tara Yosso.
