Florida introduces new standards REQUIRED when teaching Black history 🤦🏽‍♂️

"I dare you"

translation = "I realize blacks have no impulse control and are violet felons by nature, and will throw a physical assault in your direction. However at the same time I'd tell anyone who said what I just said that they are a stereotyping bigot. I ran this post by my girlfriends black lover before I sent it, and if you'll excuse me now I am going to get on my knees for BLM"

Great translation from inside the mind of a freak. Not a single black would vote for Trump if they truly thought he was racist. m*ga the least racist voting group in History. those who want racism to end will embrace the movement. others will point fingers and demand $$$ for self benefit

I dont care.

Your post makes so much sense.

What Armstrong missed about your post is that you are not minimizing the evil of slavery at the time, but most of us had ancestors that were either slaves or were severely abused but that was them not us and that was then not now.. We don't have to live thinking we are currently victims.

Isolated fact in context? Absolutely! For instance, how did the colonial American and US slavery system compare to slavery systems in other cultures? Did they develop in the same manner? How were the colonial American and US slavery systems similar or different from serfdom? Indentured servitude? In order to understand slavery in the US and the colonies, it is essential to understand other systems in other cultures, countries, and time periods.

Your railing against Desantis may be warranted in other cases. In this one, you are trying make an issue when there is none. The topics outlined in the 216 page document are standard for what one would find in an introductory US History class in college.

And I have some real bad news for you. It’s pretty shocking and upsetting, so you may want to put the women and children to bed before you read it.

In introductory US History classes, we also discuss how the system of slavery benefited both the South and the North economically (GASP!). It’s all part of that dastardly indoctrinated program you guys are so afraid happens in college.

Thanks for sending your children to our indoctrination camps…I mean our universities. We love shaping young minds to think critically and learn history from multiple perspectives. Buahahahahaha!!!!

By the way I am 100% democrat now because of Trump and the attempt of the Republicans to steal the election and to continue to lie about it and because honestly the party has been taken over by crazies.

The extreme antiwoke policies of DeSantas and the rest are a total turnoff. (Slavery was good in some ways because it taught skills??) However the progressive take things way too far but I will hold my nose and vote democrat and hope that Biden keeps the progressives at bay.

Context and the whole story of the abomination of slavery needs to be told. Obviously the slaves were part of the south and they were deeply hurt in many financial and emotional and family ways. That whites in the south benefitted financially from slavery is a much less important part of the story.

So you decided to go racist and join the party of bigots (KKK) because they somehow overcame 1 in a quadrillion odds with boarded up windows and unverified ballots connected to internet…because the other side asked questions? Interesting. kudos. communism got u

read the entire thing. It's all perfecty reasonable

All their music now is like this:

Hey!

Anyone seen the new Florida A&M football rap video?

It's a masterpiece!

It's still too liberal.

This is insane. It implies a quid pro quo between slaves and plantation owners. "You have to be my slave but you will get to learn valuable skills."

Would the slaves have learned those skills if they had been getting paid for their labor and treated humanely? Yes? Well, then there is no legitimate reason to bring up the "trade off" that they are trying to imply existed.

I can learn to type as an intern (unpaid) or as an employee (paid). Forcing me to take the unpaid position and then claiming I should be thankful that I learned to type is insane. But that is what the Florida Board of Education is doing in this case.

It didn't say that at all. What it meant is that they could use the skills they gained to help them with post abolition life - or to buy their own freedom

You "simply choose not to let it impact your present". That is the completely subjective response to an historical experience that affected millions in the US, and still does today, as racism remains alive and well in that country.

You are not being required to atone for the cruelty of Ancient Rome, but you live in a country where a racial minority who were enslaved for centuries in the US only received the vote in the South less than 60 years ago. Black Americans owned a mere 1% of GDP after the Civil War; it has risen to 2%. Such progress. But if it doesn't affect you, why should you care - as you have made clear.

Nothing you said was implied, you INFERRED it. Libs are very creative in their ability to distort reality.

Amazing. Right to the Jewish victimhood narrative. Thought this was about black history

False. The 15th amendment was ratified on February 3, 1870.
