Slavery was not a side issue to the Civil War.

Slavery was the heart of the Southern States' existence. It was the root of their power and economic livelihood.

In fact, it's an unfortunate but completely undisputable fact that without slavery there's no way...NO WAY the U.S. becomes a world power in the 1800s. Something that has carried into the 1900s and new millennium.

America not only wants to dismiss the idea of reparations. It wants to pretend the evil that made itself "great" did not exist.

If you're a Texan, you should be ashamed of your government.

You need to teach your children everything about history. Dont rely on teachers. Thats why we need to get in the ghettos and do some good instead of crying about white supremacy like morons.

There's a church not too far from me that teaches black history courses. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it.

No "young kid" is going to really understand slavery...

Kids are impressionable...

Kids also have a very short attention span...

If you think for one second a "kid" of any race is going to really "learn" about slavery at the age of 8 or 9 then you are fooling yourself...

That is the entire point of teaching it to them at 8 or 9...because they have so much other stuff to learn it is probably going to get lost in the shuffle...

vs rather teaching it to a high school senior he is about to go to college or look for a job or actually start their life so they are going to be way more receptive to paying attention

You dont understand how bigotry has sustained its existence in america havent you?

Kids are being taught white supremacy from an early age, what makes you think going to college will change the mind of a already hardened white surpremacist who has been living in that psychological filth since he was born?

Houston to LA like I'm Robert Horry.
If their idea is to phase out racial tension over time then this wouldn't be SO MUCH of an issue. But let's be honest, this is Texas we're talking about so that obviously isn't the goal. Besides that same racial tension and angst some want so badly to act like it doesn't exist is consistently brought up by who, you guessed it white people who are very aware of history. :sas2:

Black kids 50 years from now are going to be asking :why: when they didn't get a job over their less qualified white colleague thinking they did something wrong without even knowing the root of why this happens in the first place.

A lot of my fam lives here in Texas, but I'm getting da fukk out here hopefully by next year:camby:. Been around most of the states and I have no desire to live in the South or the East Coast with the exception of maybe Atlanta. :camby:

In short...

"We basically brought these untame and savage African families over to the "New World" with us, ultimately to help domesticate them. Our many attempts at being friendly, giving them a FREE RIDE over on our luxurious cruise ships...Ample working opportunities, even gave them a fierce work ethic. For some reason, they STILL weren't grateful for all we've done, let them babysit our kids, make clothes, and even feed them the same animals we ate. They are a misguided people who preferred to be in chains (as we see now, they've just painted those same chains gold/silver) and all we did was oblige...We fought a war, even included them in it, because we fought for our states' rights to continue to employ these humble workers on our planta...I mean factories. We Lost the war and had to "FREE" the "employees" but they seemed content working with us. Some idiot named Jim Crow made laws that BOTH sides thought were fair...We'll stay separate, but EQUAL and that worked pretty well up until right around the time they burned that CVS down in West Baltimore and elected some SOCIALIST foreigner as POTUS"


I'm guessing those books aren't too far off from this?



:stopitslime:Let these cacs tell it, slavery NEVER existed. So damn quick to want to "erase history" in order to be able to face yourselves in the mirror...:mjcry: Yet we're the "savage animal thugs":usure:
:russ: You murked that shyt!

Thanksgiving has nothing to do with christopher columbus though....

Looks like Texas history teachers slacking on all fronts
Columbus day is another American event with a bullshyt back story.... Just like what they are trying to do with the civil war in this thread.
Don't look for the quick joke and stay focused.

If you're Black and are in anyway excusing this, please please kill yourself. Soon as possible. You're the dumbest of the dumbest. Guy who said what 10 year will really understand you start first.

I was reading about the civil rights movement and WW2 as young as 8 on my own by the way because I found it interesting. Read an abridged version of Malcolm x biography at 9.

Kids that age are well able to understand aspects of history and it's a prime time to indoctrinate.
