How does the woke* want to erase our history?

*Woke originally meant to be aware because the whites were going to kill you.

and yet blacks kill more whites and blacks than anyone,,,

Different country.

So was the Confereracy

Then, by definition, they could not be traitors.

Not just that. Look what they did to Land O Lakes butter. Just like in real life; they kept the land, and got rid of the indian...

I found Aunt Jemimah (which I always bought and liked) re-packaged at Wal-Mart (at least I think it is?) Red-Yellow label, Pearl River or something? Still the same syrup but made me tear up a little bit.

They were the wealthy elites. Now tell me about the education of slaves. Now tell me about the education of women. This is an untenable argument to make on your part.

.

Are you trying to suggest that we did not learn from our history ... Or that we are currently denying slaves and women an education?
Do you live under a rock ... Are you best suited as a victim unable to overcome the obstacles in front of you?
Did you waste whatever money was spent on your education?

farmers were not the wealthy elite,,

Not farmers. Plantation owners.

Why the Right Hates Public Education

By Barbara Miner In an article about education, it’s appropriate to start with a pop quiz. Today’s question: Republican strategists want to privatize education because: Education is a multibillion dollar […]

not true,, the indians had a lot of white slaves as well as the ones in africa that still to this day have some,,,

while your complaining about people that are no longer slaves youre ignoring the millions that are enslave today as we speak,,,

There is a difference between situational slavery (POW, debtor, etc...with a great chance of working out of slavery and not inherited) and chattel slavery (you and yours forever are slaves).

Barbery slavery...and guess what happened if you accepted Islam?

Sounds like you're going down a rabbit trail, Zinc. Re read the OP, you are singing to the choir.

On the contraire, we are far better than we were then.

We're better than 1938, better than 1960. All else is old farts just bitching from their rocking chairs.

Yes we are, but, now we have tent cities in most if not all major cities.
We have drug abuse running rampant, and on the rise.
Crime is up and it seems that we are allowing crimes to go unpunished.
Single parent homes are on the rise.
You must live in a utopia not to recognize this.....lucky you.
You seem to have an issue with the senior citizens, this is the second post I've read of yours
revealing an issue. All I can say is, "tough shit", we are here until you get rid of us. Master plan?

I remember when the sixties generation used to bitch about the following generations...oh wait, it's still the Boomers bitching.

By the way, when you lower the bar on education, you can make your numbers look much
better than they really are. We really aren't looking good when you stack up the other nations
against what we are sporting these days.

Crime is lower than the past. You forgot about the thirties and millions of homeless... remember the okies?

I like Seniors. I have my generation's disgust with boomers. Got everything, left nothing and bitched the whole time.
Move on now you old farts. No one cares.*

* I realize 80% of the US human posters on this board are Boomers.

Your generation is giving plenty of ammunition for the bitching.

Op is not about other countries. It's about us. I could say the Republican Party could help but they are on a holy crusade against "Guvment skoolz!!!"

We didn't have tent cities, youngster. Now we do.
We didn't have people shitting in the streets, now we do.
We didn't have needles laying in the streets, now we do.
We had family cores with two parents for the most part, now we don't.
It's plain to see that they lowered the education system so you could graduate. Good for you.
America is in decline and you don't recognize it because you weren't here to see the contrast, sonny.

All right buffalo Boomer*, let's turn this positive.

What would you do to fix things. It must be legal, and Constitutional.

* I have had Buffalo burgers. Too dry for my taste.
