TMI 06/18/2021 – You Can’t Be Against Critical Race Theory and For Good History, TMI’s Top 10 Objective News Sources, and how Student Debt Relief is Being Used as Lottery Prizes for COVID Vaccinations

On this week’s TMI, we examine what Critical Race Theory is, how it stems from a need to accurately report on the history of the United States’ treatment of race, and how being against teaching it equates being against history teachers teaching history. Next, we go over some of TMI’s favorite sources for news, due to these sources’ ability to unclutter fact from opinion, and give you the most clear-eyed information available. Finally, we report on how Student Debt Relief, a promise of the Biden campaign for all, is now being dangled as a lottery prize to encourage COVID-19 vaccinations. More vaccination is a good thing, but keeping Student Debt Relief from everyone while using it like this? That’s a BAD look.

If you aren’t familiar, please listen in as we recount the history of the Greenwood District of Tulsa, called “Black Wall Street”, and how it was destroyed in one of the worst displays of hate in history.
