What they’re doing is erasing white history. So, what do I mean by that? Well, if you look at the curriculums and the laws that they’re passing to make white children feel comfortable, first of all, they’re not opposed to children learning stuff like the civil rights movement was an effort to gain equal rights. They’re not even worried about your kids learning about slavery. What they’re worrying about is your kids learning about what white people did.
According to the articles, the specific complaint was that the unit may not address the internal slave system/trade within Africa, and that quote, “it may only present one side of the issue and may not offer any opposing viewpoints or other perspectives on this subject.”
there was another story that Tennessee objected to lessons on Ruby Bridges because, you know, Ruby Bridges actually integrated schools, but they didn’t want to know about the parents who lined up outside of the schoolhouse when Ruby Bridges was entering school and yelled at her and spat on her. So they’re cool with the Ruby Bridges part, right? Ruby Bridges is an uplifting story about how one brave little girl triumphed and gave freedom for her people. But they don’t want you to understand what she triumphed over.
Well it is a lose lose from your governments perspective on one hand its supressing the truth on the other hand they think if everything is taught openly to the next generation it would increase an already negative sentiment/distrust of white america and the powers that be. The only solution they can come up with to negate this is to dilute the facts and drip feed it slowly.
