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.
But don't they have things like Martin Luther King Day? Or Black History Month now? Surely that informs school children about that period of history & it's struggles. That sort of thing never existed when I was a Kid.
Heck there was even one teacher in my elementary school who was born in the 19th Century. She used to whack kids with a leather strap.
That's how socially backward it was. Comparing then & now is like Night and Day. There was no diversity or anything remotely resembling racial Equality. Society was really White. Like starch White Wonder Bread.
Society has come a long way since that time & life was much more brutal back then.
Yes, but now the US is full of peole like Blazor who are glorfiying the South during slavery, and cops who kill black men regularly, and black people living in poverty and getting shit educations, and all these right wingers claiming racism doesn't exist. Now the fruits of slavery and Jim Crow are still very much with us, but the people who want to deny this have the loudest voices. They get their way through bullying, gerrymandering, and cheating.

Actually one thing I think is worthy of attention and should be addressed in schools is racism & bullying. Rather than push CRT , campaigns against bullying and racism should be encouraged, no matter which race is responsible for it.
I just read about a incident in Canada where a Black child was taunted by school classmates and now the parent is suing the school board for $200,000.
I think this is appropriate and the school should be sued if they condoned racism.
This is probably what needs to be addressed rather than CRT. To stamp out incidents like that.

I'll wager that way more white kids get bullied at school by blacks than vice versa, in the US at least...

Why can't there be both? CRT is a way of looking at root causes and outcomes. Students need to learn critical thinking skills in school. It's the most important thing they need to learn. As evidenced in many of the posts on this board, critical thinking skills are severely lacking in many Americans.

. I'm just laughing at contardians here for making such a big deal over something which isn't a big deal to people in reality. Their priorities are elsewhere, little lady.
Never have I ever seen a discussion about criticism so devoid of critical thinking.
State of the union, I guess. ::shrugs::

You hysteria over CRT is stunning in its idiocy. They could make a little instructional fairy tale about people like you. A Chicken Little for the 21st century.
