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!

[Aug 03, 2026] Hothouse Earth: arriving sooner than you think…: Julian Cribb writes in his latest blog: “Latest measurements, carefully analysed to exclude anomalies such as El Nino, reveal a planet cooking up at a steady 0.48 degrees per decade since 2015, in what is thought to be the most rapid heating event in all its geological history.” We are experiencing the most rapid heating event in Earth's billions of years long history! We have caused this event with a few hundred years of sole focus on unlimited growth using all the ancient solar energy accumulated by Earth's biosphere over more than 250 million years - just because we could! That is something to reflect on!

[Jun 04, 2026] ‘An equal and habitable world is possible’: This is what the Global Justice Report published today makes very clear. Read the article by Jonathan Watts in the Guardian as an introduction. While this equal and habitable world is still possible, it is very unlikely that we will transition to this world as long as greedy and unethical billionaires supported by governments they own compete to be the first trillionaire. The report underlines that the fight for an equal and habitable world has to be a fight against a system that rewards extraction and depletion of all resources and requires infinitely growing consumption devouring the Earth's life-support system; a system designed to increase inequality and sustain the exploitation of almost all to serve the greed of a few!
