The Florida Board of Education approved a new set of standards for how Black history should be taught in the state’s public schools, sparking criticism from education and civil rights advocates who said students should be allowed to learn the “full truth” of American history.
I had a kindergarten teacher lie to us that her grandfather had a slave and he liked being a slave. I don’t even know why she did that, but this reminds me of it. Just straight up bullshit about slavery.
She probably did it because it’s a really comfortable thing to believe, but it’s obviously bullshit so she just kept saying it to keep believing it
Yeah, but also it was the 1980s, so I don’t think it was even possible even if she was really old (she seemed like she was, but I was 5).
