Federalmandering: A Conceptual Analysis of the Conservative Diagnosis of Critical Race Theory in Project 2025
1Tuskegee University, bisome2@tuskegee.edu.
Abstract:
This paper undertakes a thorough examination of the conceptual distortions and rhetorical manipulations inherent in MAGA Republicans' denouncement of critical race theory, particularly highlighting its connections to the conservative agenda encapsulated in Project 2025. By closely analyzing specific language from the chapter dedicated to the Department of Education, which advocates for a reduction in federal oversight through a series of strategic repeals, comprehensive reforms, and stringent restrictions, I illuminate the pervasive misrepresentation of critical race theory and its rhetorical association with the broader concept of wokeism. The divergent and often contradictory perspectives on the federal government's involvement in education reveal a manufactured complexity that I term "federalmandering," a concept that underscores the intricate interplay between policy rhetoric and ideological positioning.
