Ibram X. Kendi on Friday declined Daily Wire host Matt Walsh ’s offer to debate the topic of world slavery following a viral exchange the pair had over its history.
Kendi last week accused Walsh of engaging in “White savior” rhetoric after Walsh noted that white people did not invent slavery “but were the first to abolish it” Kendi 's vague reasoning for declining the debate offer relied on “many historians’ have already said that he's right, though little other information was given.
Last year , however, Kendi’s Center for Antiracist Research fired around 20 staffers, and the university announced that it would launch an inquiry into the center after complaints about its culture. Since publishing “How to Be an Antiracist ,” Kendi has drawn criticism for promoting the theory that all racial disparities are due to racism. He has also faced criticism for his book “ Antiracist Baby ,” a children’s picture book that introduces children to the concept of anti-racism. Zach Jewell contributed to this report..
