Reception

In the Critical Race Theory VCC we analyze how social and political laws and media shape social conceptions of race and ethnicity. We aim at revealing the systemic nature of racism in various laws and rules. The VCC is a place to bring this understanding to the public in an effort to put our societies on pathways beyond racism.

We also make an effort to understand and comment on current developments in the USA and beyond that increase or attenuate the systemic racism in our societies.

If you consider systemic racism a serious challenge to our society and want to focus on overcoming the processes and forces that maintain this systemic racism, come and join us. We need you!

[May 09, 2026] Doomsday Clock is Getting Closer to Midnight: In January, the Doomsday clock was set to 85 seconds before midnight, the closest setting since it was established in 1947 in response to the threat of nuclear war. Sophie McBain in her article‘The odds are not in our favour’: who sets the Doomsday Clock – and what can they tell us about the future of humanity?” emphasizes that with the wars on Iran and on the Ukraine, the rapid and largely uncontrolled development of AI and the climate breakdown all together increasing the likelihood of a nuclear war, the clock now stands closer to midnight than ever before. She asks the question of whether we can buy ourselves more time.
