Don't Teach "Theory,"
Just Teach the Facts!
There's absolutely nothing "theoretical" about genocide, racism, and oppression of Native Americans. It happened, and continues.
Numerous treaties between the US and Sioux Nation, all of which have been violated by the US.
"It's their land. Give it back!"
The Republic of LakotahDo you "get it?"
There's absolutely nothing "theoretical" about slavery, genocide, racism, and oppression of Black people. It happened, and continues.
There's absolutely nothing "theoretical" about racism and oppression of Latino people. It happened, and continues.
There's absolutely nothing "theoretical" about sexism and oppression of women. It happened, and continues.
There's absolutely nothing "theoretical" about the oppression of poor White people by their "elite," politically powerful and affluent White peers. It happened, and continues.
So, stop with the "theory," just teach the facts. Facts?
OBSERVATION:
She had absolutely nothing to do with it!
but her grandparents were "U.S. citizens,"
wrongly incarcerated in internment camps and
their homes and businesses confiscated
is ridiculous, because he championed
the enslavement, beating, lynching, murders
of millions of Black people
the genocide of Jewish people, and theft
of their homes, businesses, and property
is ridiculous, because he championed
their slaughter, and the theft of their lands.
which is why the present continues to
resemble the past, which is not a theory
but a fact.Again, there's absolutely nothing wrong with being proud of who you are. Conversely, as mandated by White people, in addition to generations of genocide and oppression, Black people have been brainwashed by White people NOT to be proud, NOT to have self-esteem, and to literally hate themselves.
Click the image above to read the film review for "12 Years A Slave."
In the landmark Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, 347 U.S. 483 (1954), educational psychologists Kenneth B. Clark and Mamie Phipps Clark used a "doll test" to successfully validate before the U.S. Supreme court how Black children have been brainwashed by White people to literally hate themselves.

Teach your children the Truth!
As researched and reported in the New York Times, "Faces of Power: 80% Are White, Even as U.S. Becomes More Diverse." So, how do "elite," politically powerful and affluent White people sustain ownership, controll, and privilege? They pass laws to prohibit the teaching of "facts" that detail:
1. how genocide, racism, and oppression of Native Americans intentionally and strategically established and sustains White rule and privilege;
2. how slavery, genocide, racism, and oppression of Black people intentionally and strategically established and sustains White rule and privilege;
3. how racism and oppression of Latino people intentionally and strategically established and sustains White rule and privilege;
4. how sexism and oppression of women intentionally and strategically established and sustains male privilege;
QUESTION: Do you have "facts" that contradict the aforementioned?RESPONSE: No, you don't! Simply put, facts are the chronological and indisputable documentation of historical records and events. Do not teach "theory," just teach exactly, factually what happened, who did what, who did they do it to, when did they do it, where did they do it, etc. Don't teach people to blame or hate, or to "feel" guilty. Don't teach theory, teach solutions. Teach people to be responsible, and require them to do so.
