Why Are Our Children Being Forced To Read This Evil Racist Book??

[protectionist]

Why does the right refuse to accept that slavery was inherently a bad thing ? They want their kids to live in ignorance and grow up with the same dinosaur mindset that they did.

I have never met a right winger who thought slavery was not a bad thing.
Are you nuts ?

 

[fncceo]

Idiot. Its right wing trash who celebrate the confederacy, slavery and all its horrors. They want to suppress the truth about it.

I wouldn't be too superior if I were you. Britain outlawed slavery less than 30 years before the US.

 

[protectionist]

No. That is the bullshit that crazy right wingers are claiming, but nobody said all cops were murderers.

1. I said > "they said cops are murderers".(which could mean SOME cops). Then, you changed that to > "nobody said all cops were murderers." If your'e going to debate something, at least stay on the same idea.

I hear leftist lunatics referring to cops as murderers all the time. They are in this forum too. I've heard Kim Potter, Jeronimo Yanez, Darren Wilson, Derek Chavin, Michael Slager, and Betty Shelby all referred to as a murderer, when none of them were.

A very hollow accomplishment, when you consider all the essential human rights that we recognized, in founding the United State, that to this day, the U.K. does not recognize.

The video you posted claimed the girl's mother was directly accused of being a murder. You really should watch videos before you post them.

Schoolteacher was the hero of the OP's story.

All praises to noble Schoolteacher.

While we're on the subject of "should", you should stop changing the subject that's being discussed.

The difference is that we dont look back on it as a golden age an celebrate it.

Neither do any Americans.

In the mean time, you British filth have not yet caught up to where ewe were when we kicked you out of our country, as far as certain essential human rights, such as freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the right to keep and bear arms, and so on. You remain the same backward, tyrannical, savage, degenerate culture which we rejected almost two and a half centuries ago.

And some of you still feel entitled to tell us Americans hot to run our country, even after losing two wars that were fought to establish that how we Americans run our country is none of your fucking business.

If we wanted to live in a tyrannical, backward shithole like the UK, we wouldn't have fought so hard to rebel against it.

You know nothing about the UK you idiot.You are still fighting to put up statues celebrating slavery. Now go and fetch some bricks for the lads.

Tommy, you thinking you have the understanding and grounds to complain about American culture is no more credible than an American football fan trying to convince a Man U fan that Tottenham's midfield is stronger.

There isnt much to choose between the two.

A public PM to the poster Tommy Tainant:

You are suffering the spitballs from the HoneyBooBoo constituency because.......well, NOT because you are a Brit or Welsh, or UK'r ......you are getting it because you consistently offer more perceptive and insightful views of America's current political zeitgeist than the MAGAHats can muster. Not to mention, you undercut and debunk their fantagasms regularly.

Thus, you are resented.
And sniped and hissed at by the BooBirds that sit on the antenna of this gossipboard.
It comes with the territory. It is their parochial, insular thingy.

Personally, speaking for me and my avatar, well, both of us appreciate a more diverse view that is influenced by factors, nuances, and the realities of another nation, another culture.

So, please continue pitching your brushback heaters.
You are keeping the BooBoos from crowding our plate here.

A hat-tip.

Toni Morrison's "Beloved" at center of latest battle in Virginia governor's race

An ad being run by GOP candidate Glenn Youngkin features a parent upset that the book was being taught to her son, a high school senior.

www.cbsnews.com

"The work of Nobel laureate Toni Morrison is at the center of the latest skirmish over education in the Virginia's governor's race, after an ad by Republican candidate Glenn Youngkin featured a parent upset that Morrison's 1987 novel "Beloved" was being taught to her son, a high school senior. Morrison's best-known work, is set in the Reconstruction and vividly portrays the horrors of slavery and its legacy -- The book won the Pulitzer Prize for fiction in 1988 and was a finalist for the National Book Award.

Democratic gubernatorial candidate Terry McAuliffe and Virginia Democrats are calling the ad a "racist dog whistle" and accusing Youngkin of wanting to ban books. In the ad, Fairfax County mother Laura Murphy goes after McAuliffe for vetoing Virginia House Bill 516, the "Beloved bill" -- that would have required parents to be notified "if material used in class includes sexually explicit content." McAuliffe shot back at Youngkin and said no, "the bill would have given parents the right to veto … books, Glenn, not to be knowledgeable about it — also take them off the shelves -- I don't think parents should be telling schools what they should teach."



Why are we forcing our elementary and middle school children to read these disgusting racist books? This book is basically critical race theory....for those who haven't read it -- it is talks about rape, it involves the main character of the book killing her baby, just because she didn't want the child to be a slave....like WTF? You think death is better than being slave? ...Just because this woman is a Nobel Laureate doesn't erase the fact that she is most likely racist to have written a book like this..Our children should not be forced to read books written by racists who describe our nation in a negative way...


As for the woman in this ad....her son luckily survived the trauma of having to read that book in his AP course in which he could have opted out of reading the book but didn't....

Yes kids, you heard right....Her child (who is now 27 and is a lawyer who works for the National Republican Committee and previously worked in the Trump admin) -- that child of hers did receive prior notification before reading the book and had the choice to opt out, but didn't....In other words, parents do have a choice to opt out....but what she ACTUALLY tried to do was ban the book completely.....the folks who scream the loudest about cancel culture have no problems with it when it is them who gets to decide what gets cancelled...and like clockwork, it is always black voices they want to cancel the most....If conservatives didn't have racist dog whistles to blow, they would only be left with blowing Trump....

So which is it

High school seniors or middle and elementary school kids?

 

[Biff_Poindexter]

So which is it

High school seniors or middle and elementary school kids?

All of them...even toddlers are being taught to be racist against whites

 

[hadit]

There isnt much to choose between the two.

The point being that the average American football fan has as much understanding about international futbol as a llama has about how to tie a shoe.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

It was we Republicans whom you call "right-wingers", who abolished slavery

Bullshit. Today's magaturd party is yesterday's Southern Democrats.

You are 1000% wrong

For when "You are 100% wrong" seems like whistling too softly.

You're just nitpicking now.
