Chinese State-Run Media Creates Cartoon Aimed at Educating American Children With Critical Race Theory

Recently, Wisconsin-based nonprofit Mythinformed, which works to limit the effects of authoritarian ideology, posted a tweet warning that the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) in Beijing is โ€œpromoting woke ideologyโ€ targeting American children, referring to a cartoon video created by the regimeโ€™s English-language broadcaster China Global Television Network (CGTN) in September 2020.

CGTN promotedย critical race theoryย (CRT) in its four-minute video and encouraged parents to shape their children into racial activists.

The opening line of the video says, โ€œRacism is passed down from generation to generation.โ€ One scene of the cartoon shows a white child telling a black child, โ€œYou canโ€™t be Spider-Man, you are black.โ€ The video also instructs parents to use โ€œexamples from daily life and the newsโ€ to educate their children about being โ€œanti-racist.โ€ The video ends with the narrator telling the viewer that โ€œbeing โ€˜not racistโ€™ just keeps things the way they are now. By being โ€˜anti-racist,โ€™ you can help lead our children to a brighter future.โ€

The entire video echoes the sentiments of radical leftist and CRT activist Ibram X. Kendi who theorized that racism is deeply rooted and institutionalized in all aspects of American society, and that โ€œwhite supremacyโ€ and racism is the main cause of socioeconomic disparities between blacks and Hispanics living in America compared to whites.

CGTN has been classified as one of six โ€œforeign missionsโ€ in the United States, in an attempt to warn Americans that the content from the broadcaster is controlled by the CCP.

After this video was uploaded to YouTube about a year ago, it has received bitter criticism by viewers, with more viewers disliking than liking the video. After Mythinfomed posted the propaganda clip on its Twitter account on Aug. 16, it has received extensive attention.

In the Twitter comment section, a netizen by the name JimHansonDC wrote: โ€œHelping Americans hate each other with lies, I guess thatโ€™s slightly better than unleashing a viral pandemic.โ€ Another netizen pointed out that the CCP did not even do their research, as the person portraying Spider-Man in the latest Spider-Man movie, Miles Morales, is in fact black.

CRT Fuels Social Conflict

On July 10, the founder and chairman of the Asian American Coalition for Education, Zhao Yukong, wrote an article titled โ€œWhy should Asians oppose โ€˜Critical Race Theoryโ€™?โ€

โ€œIf you replace โ€˜White peopleโ€™ with โ€˜landlord capitalists,โ€™ โ€˜people of colorโ€™ with โ€˜proletariat,โ€™ โ€˜racismโ€™ with โ€˜class oppression,โ€™ then you get that CRT is an airbrushed version of the class struggle theory that is now being promoted as a racial struggle theory. CRT tells us that racial oppression in America is everywhere and that โ€˜racismโ€™ needs to be tackled โ€˜year after year, month to month, and day to dayโ€™ to achieve โ€˜racial equality,’โ€ Zhao wrote.

Zhao quoted and mocked Chinese communist leader Mao Zedong in the article. Mao made a famous statement in 1962 during a CCP Central Committee plenary: โ€œClass struggles must be carried out year after year, month to month, and day to day.โ€

Zhao pointed out that the โ€œanti-racist strugglesโ€ that are in full swing across the United States today, which are fueling internal social conflicts under the guidance of CRT, such as the Black Lives Matter Movement, have also seen Asians become โ€œfat sheepโ€ under the butcherโ€™s knife.

He gave the example of the cancellation of SAT scores in high schools with the intention of achieving โ€œracial equityโ€ in education outcomes, and the fact that Harvard, Yale, and other prestigious universities across the country now consider race and ethnicity an important factor in their college admissions process, which strongly advocates for CRT.
