Blacks who don\\u2019t adopt the doctrines of victimhood or critical social justice erode the narrative promoted by woke activists, Erec Smith, a professor of rhetoric at York College of Pennsylvania and co-founder of Free Black Thought, says. 


\\u201cThe illogic that is inherent in a lot of anti-racist activism ... is absurd," Smith says.


Smith doesn\'t like how The New York Times\' 1619 Project, authored by Nikole Hannah-Jones, only has furthered division within the nation.


As a professor of rhetoric, Smith, who is black and the author of \\u201cA Critique of Anti-Racism in Rhetoric and Composition: the Semblance of Empowerment,\\u201d says he is concerned that anti-racist dogma contains \\u201cno sincere attempt to persuade\\u201d but is instead \\u201can attempt to intimidate." 


Smith joins \\u201cThe Daily Signal Podcast\\u201d from the Parents Unite conference in Boston on Oct. 1 to discuss why blacks who oppose critical race theory are being \\u201cerased.\\u201d Smith also explains what he would talk about discuss Ibram X Kendi, author of \\u201cHow to Be an Antiracist,\\u201d if he were given the opportunity.
