CRT was a theory pushed by a black studies PhD student millennial, Obama picking it up and running with it doesnt make it boomer...

Yeah, but the motivation, emotions, and (garbage) theorizing definitely have their roots in boomerism. I'm relatively familiar with the academic roots of CRT and I know it didn't exist in its current form until the '90s. But, it seems to me, and many others, that its just a nightmare-level distillation and extension of ideas that were quite "in vogue" with many in the boomer era. What about Bill Ayer? Hillary wrote her thesis on Alinsky's Rules for Radicals. Eric Holder was part of a radical black pride organization that, while armed, occupied a building on a college campus. These people aren't academics but you get the picture.
