The "Critical" in Critical Philosophy of Race

Abstract: There is a new school of philosophers that propose new methodologies not for only treating race but doing philosophy, full stop. Critical philosophy of race is critical in four ways. It is critical of the basic denial of race as a proper subject of philosophical inquiry. It is critical of the naturalistic conceptions of race that eschew meaning. It is critical of racism in all of its forms. The "critical" in critical philosophy of race aligns with social movements that emphasize racial justice and aspire to social reform. A critical philosophy of race would praise a movement insisting that Black lives matter.
