I think some school districts gloss over the slavery stuff. I was educated in California, and they definitely hit the harder, more disturbing aspects- but the South still has some folks who want their kids to learn about how slaves were and how it wasn't all that bad and everyone else did it anyway. You can never forget that education across the US is not the same- and when my husband went to Georgia from Washington state he found the kids were a year behind where he was. It is unfortunate that their are pockets of white snowflakes who cannot face their own countries past- but there are. They are the CRT whiners. They don't understand the past (or they do, and do not like it) and they sure as hell don't want anyone teaching about it.

The question isn’t whether it is taught. It is. The problem portion is whether it is taught honestly and appropriately. How much emphasis is placed on trying to make black kids hate white kids? That is, after all, the objective. For god only knows what reason this is done. If you are teaching it year after year, for hours on end, you aren’t doing it proportionality. Like all history, the emphasis on slavery is should be a reasonable part of a much bigger picture. The focus on MLK truths, for example, should not be lost trying to teach the Howard Zinn lies. Do we teach about the content of character? What I really want to know is what caused this to happen? You have any idea how something like this happens? And why it is a predominantly black phenomenon? That’s the real question, isn’t it? youtu.be
