In the twenty-first century, we must move beyond memes to the truth. Some believe it is unfair how whites get portrayed in modern teachings. Unfair is revising history to leave out the factual record. Teaching our children the mistakes we made should not mean we are teaching them to dislike whites or being white. I and generations of other blacks endured the annual K-12 section of history about black slavery, and it did not make me hate being black. In recent years we have seen a consistent well-funded, politically supported movement by the right-wing to enforce gaslighting as a way of educating today’s students. In this movement, anything that negatively shows whites must be censored. Meanwhile, whites on the right teach their children racist beliefs at home.
When I got to college, I found a place in the university library with information on the history and accomplishments of nonwhite people. I missed so much knowledge because of what was not taught to me that it made me angry. Anger is the outcome when people of color are shown their accomplishments get canceled to learn CWST. The continued teaching of CWST by force will make things worse.
This is why they are BANNING black history in schools..
Don't talk the standard dumb rhetoric. July 4th, 1776 was in the past too.
