But you agree with critical race theory,&#8221; or this one. This is from TikTok, a video that\u2019s gone viral on social media of a young Black father and his daughter speaking out against CRT.<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: Daddy teaches you that you can be anything in this world that you want to be, right? Don\u2019t daddy teach you that?<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: Yeah, and it doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re black or white or any color.<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: Doesn\u2019t matter if you\u2019re black or white, brown &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>BOTH: Yellow!<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: Right.<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: &#8220;Block.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: And how we treat people is based on how they are &#8212;<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: Yeah, and if they\u2019re nice!<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: &#8212; and not what color they are.<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: And if they\u2019re nice and if they\u2019re smart.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/T0poxd7UadI\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: See? This is how&#8230; (chuckles) This is how children think right here. Critical race theory wants to end that. Not with my children. It\u2019s not going to happen. My baby is gonna know that no matter what she wants to be in life, all she has to do is work hard, and she can become that.<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: Work hard. Even though you don\u2019t know anyone, you can make friends.<\/p>\n<p>KORY YESHUA: (chuckling) Yeah. You can make friends no matter what color they are. So we stop CRT, period, point-blank. Children do not see skin color, man! They love everybody. If they\u2019re good people, they love \u2019em.<\/p>\n<p>ROYALTY: We pray for people who are hurt.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: God bless them.

I just decided I wanted to get out there and show the world what I teach my daughter, you know, and the values I instill in her, and that\u2019s to see people for who they are, and for &#8220;the content of their character, and not the color of their skin.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>TODD: Earlier in the week on Fox, a dad in Maine explained how his opposition to critical race theory and it nearly got him banned from attending his own twin daughters\u2019 graduation.<\/p>\n<p>Shawn McBreairty: This sounds weird, but I feel I\u2019m the tip of the sword. There\u2019s a lot of people behind me, and I\u2019ve had, you know, a number of business leaders and people across the town pulling me aside and say, &#8220;Hey, Shawn. I believe what you\u2019re doing. I can\u2019t say anything because the cancel culture is so strong here. And really, the woke mob, the trolls, they go after everybody.&#8221; So I got pushed, and I pushed back hard.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: <a href=\"https:\/\/live-rush-limbaugh.pantheonsite.io\/daily\/2021\/01\/18\/dr-king-wouldnt-recognize-todays-democrat-party\/\">Rush invoked the Reverend-Dr. Martin Luther King to describe the absolute perversity of today\u2019s Democrat Party.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>RUSH: Well, I have to agree with you. Dr. King, one of his most famous passages was that he hoped that his kids someday would grow up in a country where &#8212; I\u2019m paraphrasing &#8212; the content of their character was the single greatest determining factor about the kind of people they were, rather than the color of their skin. Now, Dr. King &#8212; and I have no problem saying this at all &#8212; Dr. King would not recognize the modern iteration of the Democrat Party.<\/p>\n<div id=\"zype_6005fbf16ea0760001ed03b6\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.zype.com\/embed\/6005fbf16ea0760001ed03b6.js?api_key=6yUf3WZePk78GtpC3BXdZSqZ5ma_gYmV_rEJ8OYJZ0wq3AlDKM2RFnOcBN0xiMco&amp;controls=true\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>He did believe in nonviolence. And he might have had a political motivation now and then of playing, throwing down the race card, but that was not who he was. It was not the defining thing about Dr. King. And so much is being done in his name that he never supported. I think he would be shocked, probably is. But it\u2019s kind of like saying the same of JFK. JFK would not be welcomed into the Democrat Party today.<\/p>\n<p>JFK believed in tax cuts, for example, and a whole lot of other conservative economic principles. And yet all of these things that the Democrat Party supposedly believes in are being done in the name of people like JFK, but more importantly, Dr. King. And I\u2019m telling you Dr. King would not recognize the Democrat Party today. And I have no compunction saying that he wouldn\u2019t want any part of it, or a large part of it.<\/p>\n<p>TODD: Rush spoke freely for a living &#8212; a really good one, God bless him &#8212; and we must speak freely. Everyone else is waiting for someone in the room to say, &#8220;This is crazy, insane, nonsense. White people are not racist by the virtue of being white. Race is not the most important thing about hiring or about anything else.&#8221; It\u2019s content of the character. It\u2019s how you treat others. So we must be the ones who arrive with free speech.<\/p>\n<div id=\"zype_5ec6812fe5d2040001183c29\">&nbsp;<\/div>\n<p><script src=\"https:\/\/player.zype.com\/embed\/5ec6812fe5d2040001183c29.js?api_key=6yUf3WZePk78GtpC3BXdZSqZ5ma_gYmV_rEJ8OYJZ0wq3AlDKM2RFnOcBN0xiMco&amp;controls=true\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>TODD: TODD: Rush spoke freely for a living &#8212; a really good one, God bless him &#8212; and we must speak freely.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":398578,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Speak Freely Like Rush Did!
