Abstract	This paper utilizes tools of critical race theory to interrogate the racial politics of the everyday. The authors contend that this type of critical policy analysis can yield understandings of/about the world that are too often silenced or ignored altogether. This paper argues that critical race theory does not aim to tell a "truer" account of reality, but a more honest one. Therefore, critical race scholars need not ask permission--nor seek forgiveness--for their counterstories, but hold themselves accountable to communicate stories and narratives that are not only honestly critical, but critically honest. (As Provided).
