So, what was being taught before that was inclusive and told the full history of the US?
Cons are such fucking pussies. They'll do anything to whitewash the truth they can't face about themselves.
I suppose it's somewhat difficult for people to comprehend the civil rights movement in the US unless they were alive to witness it or watch it on their televisions. I remember it quite well even tho I was just a child at the time. I certainly remember the day Martin Luther King was assassinated. It was a riveting period in American History & even tho I was very young I at least had an awareness of its significance as history in the making.
I seemed to remember that the purpose of the Civil Rights movement was to elevate the status of Black people, achieve Equality & harmony not to divide them.
That there exist mixed raced marriages now between Black and White is in itself a huge quantum leap forward. That hardly existed back then. Or seeing large numbers of Blacks working in offices. I remember they used to be in low wage jobs like janitors or laborers.
I think a major reason why their lot improved so much compared with previous decades was the Second World War. Apart from the post war prosperity, it was the catastrophe of the war itself & the dislocation it caused which allowed the races to mix.
It's probably very difficult for many Americans to comprehend the historicAL significance of that period of their history because they weren't alive to witness it. So
...while it is important for them to know about & understand about it, I honestly don't think critical race theory is the way to go.
But, Joe, you only have an understanding of CRT that is based on the hysteria from the right. They are not telling the truth about what it is and what is being taught.
