The BLM part is especially ridiculous. No mention of the shop lifting Michael Brown forcefully attacking a police officer?

How is this considered to be proper history education?

If people actually gave a shite about their public school district, they would demand that schools stop using history textbooks. They are controversial expenses that are not needed.

See, I'm reading this nodding my head thinking what's next is "blatantly biased history textbooks."

Anything improper here?

quote:

Clinton voters "also worried about the mental instability of the president-elect and the anger that he and his supporters brought to the nation," it reads.
and
quote:

"Trump’s supporters saw the vote as a victory for the people who, like themselves, had been forgotten in a fast-changing America–a mostly older, often rural or suburban, and overwhelmingly white group. Clinton’s supporters feared that the election had been determined by people who were afraid of a rapidly developing ethnic diversity of the country, discomfort with their candidate’s gender, and nostalgia for an earlier time in the nation’s history," says the text.
and
quote:

"By The People" by James W. Fraser goes on to claim Trump's administration is comprised of "largely white males, more so than any presidential cabinet since Ronald Reagan."

The communists did warn us that they would take over from the inside.

The hypocrisy is unreal. The only anger and racism that has been shown has been by the unhinged left. Unbelievable.

shite like this is why you are going to someday see tax revolts against public schools.

Hopefully starting in EBR next week.

I think the PoliTalk collective could create an excellent AP History textbook. We could even include chapters from our unhinged liberal posters in order to present all sides fairly. Of course, as editor, I would be sure to include a note about potential biases in each chapter.

You may be joking a little bit, but reading this board, as much as I disagree with the diehard trumpets, would be no worse than reading a corporate textbook, and a teachable moment in that you could verify claims and the facts and see which posters do not

Edit: For the intellectually limited, the fact that I disagree with most diehard Trumpettes does not mean I am a lib or Clinton supporter

I'm sick of this shite. More of every minority group voted for Trump compared to McCain and Romney.

This wouldn’t be problem if we quit sending our kids to government sponsored indoctrination daycare centers.

So where are students supposed to be taught history from?

Offer accepted. Do we have any unhinged moonbat loon who is willing to present the war from an alternative view?

The north literally forced African Americans out of their homes and livelihoods and conscripted them against their will
