Liberal writer John McWhorter spotlighted how the anti-racism cause has become a "new religion" during a segment on Tuesday's CNN Tonight. McWhorter underlined that "we have a religion in that, there is scripture; and there are questions you're not supposed to ask; and there is original sin...the scripture says that America is based on racism, and that racism is what America is all about today." He added that "the idea that you're supposed to engage or ask questions...that's considered...heretical....You're racist. You don't get it."
Anchor Don Lemon brought on McWhorter to discuss his recent article on the "new religion" thesis. After noting the "scripture" of anti-racism, the guest cited how "Ta-Nehisi Coates at The Atlantic writes a piece called 'A Case for Reparations'...what people like about a piece like that – who are members of this anti-racism religion – is simply that it was said...the idea that you're supposed to engage or ask questions – or some people might even want to be skeptical – that's considered incorrect. It's considered heretical."
