A new academic study by Brianna Richmond, et al., purports to show that opposition to Critical Race Theory is correlated with ignorance of CRT. The quiz the authors use, however, to determine the level of knowledge of CRT is quite problematic. CRT, being a body of academic work, does not have a singular position on various issues, making any such "quiz" difficult. But with that said, the quiz is structured so that the answers reflect how many CRT advocates would like CRT to be seen for PR purposes, rather than a reasonable interpretation of what CRT often stands for. ...

 The three answers coded as incorrect are more closely associated with CRT than the correct answer. With regard to "guilty and ashamed," there is a whole line of CRT scholarship, especially in psychology and anthropology, arguing that whites must develop "white racial consciousness" to recognize their privilege, and then become woke based on that recognition. Seems to me one can reasonably interpret this as saying white people should first feel guilty about their privilege, and then ashamed if they aren't using that privilege in anti-racist activism.
