Yep. Apparently the "great" state of Texass decided to follow through on their plot to make their children ignorant.

    In the next decade, watch the educated negroes argue that, blks were never enslaved, but immigrant workers... and if u try to tell them we were enslaved , they'll just contend that, u r reciting psuedo blk history... n theyll refute your claim of slavery by using their "educated facts" as evidence.

    Are they ? serious... How can they do this and get away with it?

    You can't just make up history...

    Government steps in and regulates ? ? , but they let this state rewrite history completely.

    I know a education is State run, but this is ? RIDICULOUS

    It's time to seriously start creating our own schools.

    It's also time to reevaluate what we consider "education".

    This why you always hear conservatives talking about getting rid of the dept of education. Inb4 @zzombie justifies it by saying conservatives value freedom over facts

    Not the issue. The problem are white kids who are taught this nonsense. I see them all over the net acting like the Civil War wasn't about slavery, or that slaves "had it good".

    Then it doesn't matter what's in a textbook..whites have never accepted responsibility for slavery
