I really appreciate the last line/call to action. Not studying something because it makes you uncomfortable is exactly how uncomfortable and inhumane situations come to pass. Same reason reading Mein Kampf shouldn't be seen as supporting Nazi ideals, trying to understand what led to or promoted atrocities is key to preventing their reoccurance. Ignorance and isolation from information is never a cure.

"...looking back, we shouldn't avert our eyes either." This series is coming out as 26 states are banning/limiting the ability to discuss CRT in classrooms. Thank you Crash Course!
