- Christopher Ferguson Rufo (born August 26, 1984) is an American conservative activist and senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute. He is best known for his activism against critical race theory, which he says "has pervaded every aspect of the federal government" and poses "an existential threat to the United States". He is a former fellow at the Discovery Institute, the Claremont Institute, and The Heritage Foundation. Rufo has been actively involved in Republican efforts to restrict critical race theory instruction or seminars. Critical race theory considers racism to be systemic in various rules and laws, and not only based on individuals' prejudices. Rufo described his strategy to oppose critical race theory as using the term to "put all of the various cultural insanities under that brand category" and "to have the public read something crazy in the newspaper and immediately think 'critical race theory.'" Rufo is also known for his opposition to teachers discussing LGBTQ issues in schools, spreading anti-LGBT conspiracy theories, and contending that public schools are often "hunting grounds for sexual predators." Rufo has said that "To get to universal school choice, you really need to operate from a premise of universal public school distrust." (en)
