Comment:
Themes of CRT as listed in "Critical Race Theory: An Annotated Bibliography", 1993, by Delgado and Stefancic: 
1. Critique of liberalism 
2. Storytelling/"naming one's own reality" (anti-objectivism; rejection of quantitative/scientific data) 
3. Revisionist interpretations of American civil rights law and progress (1619 project; anti-incrementalism) 
4. Greater understanding of the underpinnings of race and racism ("systemic" racism found everywhere they look) 
5. Structural Determinism (where anti-meritocracy comes from) 
6. Race, sex, class and their intersections ("intersectionality"/queer theory) 
7. Essentialism and anti-essentialism (identity politics) 
8. Cultural nationalism/separatism (including "black insurrection")
