In a Feb. 23 letter, the Chinese American Citizens Alliance of Greater New York denounced CRT, a European Marxist projection that views society through the unique spectacles of race-based power conflict and marks the very grounds of American social and political life—such as rationalism, constitutional law, and legal reasoning—as tools of racial domination.
“From its very roots, CRT is racist, repressive, discriminatory, and divisive,” the group noted, saying that the CRT framework is heavily impacted by prominent communist thinkers like Marx, Lenin, and Gramsci, but with class, struggle displaced by racial struggle.

Chinese Americans, according to the Alliance, have come into CRT’s crosshairs because the racial minority group has continued to “overcome discrimination and achieve upward mobility,” becoming “white by adjacency.”

Remarking that CRT supports broad generalizations only based on skin color, the Alliance claims it will surely collide with immigrants who are “grateful to be here, work hard and educate their children hard, and believe in the American dream under the Constitutional guarantee of equal rights.”

“When CRT eventually clashes with immigrants, we will find CRT’s racism and hate against us ratcheted up another notch,” the letter reads.
In a call to fight, the Alliance said parents should not only plan to resist CRT being taught in schools, but also speak with their kids to ”indoctrinate” them at home. “This needs to start early, because CRT indoctrination also starts early,” it warned. “Don’t trust schools and teachers blindly.”

The group also asked voters to elect state legislators who “represent our views on CRT,” noting that it is unlikely to purge CRT at the federal level with President Joe Biden in the White House. In one of his first executive actions as president, Biden revoked Trump’s September 2020 executive order, which declared that “un-American” and “divisive concepts” should no longer be supported in any diversity and inclusion training for federal workers.

The Alliance’s letter was praised by Christopher Rufo, a conservative journalist, filmmaker, and active critic of CRT. He drew parallels between CRT and Mao’s Cultural Revolution, noting that many Chinese-Americans escaped the deadly political movement and don’t want to see it reenter the United States.

“Welcome to the fight, friends,” Rufo wrote on Twitter.
The Alliance was originally established in 1895 in San Francisco, California, to permit Chinese immigrants during the prohibition era, when the Exclusion Act of 1882 suspended Chinese immigration for 10 years and declared immigrants of Chinese origin ineligible for naturalization. Its Greater New York chapter was re-established in 2016.
