Haven't Textbooks Taught Critical Race Theory For Decades??

White people love critical race theories.

"While they [conservatives] generally oppose Critical Race Theory, the academic movement started by Black scholars, they have historically embraced the uncapitalized version of race theory -- but because so many see whiteness as a default, they don’t understand that their entire education has already been racialized. The fact that most people know about Betsy Ross’ amazing ability to sew or Paul Revere’s talent for riding and yelling, but have never heard of Mary Ellen Pleasant or Colonel Tye is proof that the American education system is filtered through the lens of whiteness.

For centuries, this country’s schools have perpetuated a whitewashed version of history that either erases or reduces the story of Black America [and others] down to a B-plot in the American script - because the white-centric interpretation of our national past is so commonly accepted, most white people have convinced themselves that anything that varies from the Caucasian interpretation must be a lie."

Now, what was interesting was that this article went on to research the history books of GOP Senators who are so triggered by CRT -- to see why they are so fixated on teaching the version of history they were taught.....like Senator Marsha Blackburn who was taught using history books collated by United Daughters Of The Confederacy...hmmm....in it they learned that the Brown vs Board decision was a travesty and that slaves may have been human chattel, but they were mostly treated like family.....hmmmm.....no wonder accurate tellings of history would trigger her so much...she was raised to believe a whole lie....

How about Senator Cotton from Arkansas.....his high school textbook from 1995 taught about slavery in a very similar way that Marsha learned decades ago...it even referred to the Civil War, not as the Civil War -- but the war for Southern Independence...Again, this was 1995.....it also made sure that students didn't feel that "War of Independence" was over slavery..I repeat...this was 1995....so no wonder Cotton is triggered by accurate tellings of history...and no wonder he dog whistles to Neo-Confederates so much....


So for all the hand wringing we see over "Critical Race Theory" -- truth is; a certain purposely incomplete and flawed version of race theory has been taught in this country for generations....And one should ask themselves, why this need to rewrite a history that is easily debunked and proven false with just a minor bit of research?? Would you feel that same way if our textbooks began to see the "good side" of the Nazi Holocaust....would you be lecturing holocaust survivors and their descendants about how it wasn't really that many Jews exterminated and how some Jews in concentration camps were treated like family?? Or is it still too soon to try to rewrite that history?

I certainly believe black accomplishments should be taught in schools.

There are no black accomplishments to put in textbooks except for maybe 2 or 3...

1. Justice Thomas being appointed to the Supreme Court (because that other darkie Thurgood Marshall wasn't a good black)

2. And Candace Owens' very existence is a black accomplishment...

Aside from that...there are no other accomplishments worthy of noticing

 

[EvilCat Breath]

So you are saying that we should teach kids that slaves were like tractors...and what slave owner would mis-use their tractor right??

Except....tractors can't talk, let alone write and leave recordings......

Again..why is there this need to continue to try to beautify and rationalize slavery as some obscure exercise in economics?

Slaves weren't like tractors. They were live stock. They were like horses or cattle. No responsible person would permit disease or injury to valuable animals. To understand the concept of slavery that existed at the time you would have to examine the records kept by slave breeders. They held select bloodlines as very valuable commanding thousands of dollars in stud fees. Tractor? You are far off the mark. Think fine race horse or champion bull. Many of today's black sports figures owe their size and speed to those long dead slave breeders.

Christianity did not come here. That is why word racism exists. Nazism would not have existed had the lie of different races never existed in the first place. Germans were high and lifted up within themselves. That caused people to war, just like it started it in God's kingdom. It has nothing to do with white. I am white skinned. It has to do with the unseen master, that people are obeying.

I can help you out---because the woke group has been pushing this bullshit story that blacks are broke ass mother pluckers---and that they were never able to make money and become rich with white people. Pleasant, becoming rich is not the narrative that they want white people to believe.

With Colonel Tye-despite that the Quakers were well known to both educate blacks and then free most of them when they turned 21---(which most people don't know about)----Tye and his violent gang attacked Quakers--killing and likely worse their former owners even the ones that educated and freed them, because the British paid them. NO BLACKS from this area fought with the patriots--all took money from the British to kill American patriots instead. I can see why they keep his story under wraps as well---don't want it out that the blacks helped the enemy.

I can help you out---because the woke group has been pushing this bullshit story that blacks are broke ass mother pluckers---and that they were never able to make money and become rich with white people without the government giving them government money one way or the other. Pleasant, becoming rich on her own is not the narrative that they want white people to believe.

With Colonel Tye-despite that the Quakers were well known to both educate blacks and then free most of them when they turned 21---(which most people don't know about)----Tye and his violent gang attacked Quakers--killing and likely worse their former owners even the ones that educated and freed them, because the British paid them. NO BLACKS from this area fought with the patriots--all took money from the British to kill American patriots instead. I can see why they keep his story under wraps as well---don't want it out that the blacks helped the enemy in the American Revolution, that Blacks even then terrorized whites who had in many cases helped them, or that Quakers were freeing Blacks all over the place before and after the revolutionary war.....long long before the Civil war which means that there many many free blacks living in america well before Lincoln.

 

[Turtlesoup]

I can help you out---because the woke group including White Elites and Race Pimps haves been pushing this bullshit story that blacks are broke ass mother pluckers---and that they were never able to make money and become rich before the government made special laws and money for them. Pleasant, becoming rich is not the narrative that they want white people to know...it is very hard to guilt white people if white people realize that blacks were always able and did often become rich all on their own.

With Colonel Tye-despite that the Quakers were well known to both educate blacks and then free most of them when they turned 21---(which most people don't know about)----Tye and his violent gang attacked Quakers--killing and likely worse their former owners even the ones that educated and freed them, because the British paid them.

[Superbadbrutha]

Were there black contributors to history? Yes. They just didn't contribute very much.

Of course an ignorant, racist hag would think that.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Just curious Turtleshit, do you have any links, websites, any damn thing to back this up.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

Of course an ignorant, racist hag would think that.

Enlighten us.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

Enlighten us.

You can't enlighten someone who is in denial.

 

[EvilCat Breath]

You can't enlighten someone who is in denial.

So you can't.

 

[Superbadbrutha]

So you can't.

I can, but you would just deny it because you are a racist hag. You have been taught that you invented or discovered EVERYTHING.

I doubt any one of you could accurately describe CRT if your lives depended on it. So you should probably just shut up.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

And, just in case you were still; operating under the delusional that every smart person on the planet doesn't understand exactly why you hate CRT, let me let you in on something:

We understand why you hate it. We 100% get it.

CRT= GFY

Yep, that's about the extent of your knowledge of CRT. If you spent 1% of the time you spend whining like a little bitch about it on actually learning about it, you might not say so many stupid things.

CRT doubles down on Biden's "You ain't black!" strategy

If you don't vote and act the right way, you ain't black!

Do you think you can have a happy, full life? You ain't black!

Do you think you can succeed in Life? You ain't black!

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a democrat run nation where they will be judged by the color of their skin and not by the content of their character.

No really, you should probably shut up. You could not describe a single thing about CRT if your life depended on it.
