Ibram X. Kendi blasts John McWhorter for op-ed insisting standardized tests aren’t racist: 'An embarrassment'

University professor and critical race theory advocate Ibram X. Kendi attacked an attempt to defend standardized testing by a New York Times opinion writer on his Twitter account Sunday.

Kendi argued that the newsletter op-ed, penned by Black linguist John McWhorter, was a "merry-go-round of denial" that attacked Black citizens while claiming to defend them.
