Regarding race and much else, America’s students are not taught history. In fact, they are not taught; they are indoctrinated. With anti-Americanism. The purpose of all teaching about race in American schools is to engender contempt for America. They are, therefore, “taught” the lies of The New York Times’ “1619 Project” — that the United States was founded to preserve and protect slavery — and of such works as Robin DiAngelo’s “White Fragility.”So, then, what should American schools teach about race?They should, of course, teach students about slavery and racism.

The Number 1 thing that should be taught in schools : ALL the slaves sent to America were sold into slavery by BLACK Africans.
Black Africans killed, raped, seized land, and rounded up their "rivals" and sold them into slavery by the millions. You didn't really think a couple hundred white guys from Portugal, Spain, and Great Britain could do all that, did you?
Let African Americans seek reparations from Africans

Race: The Bible defines but TWO races, Gentile and Jew. All other issues are man made, such as skin color and culture.
Racism: See definition for "Race" above.
Slavery: Every people of all types nationalities, skin colors, and cultures have been the victims of slavery throughout history, but only ONE nation fought a war to end it.

Multiculturalism is a cancer. A shared American experience is the only thing that can save this country.

There is the truth and the new PC truth. Somebody sent out "White Fragility" and I replied I was offended. If you change white to black, all H-ll would break loose.

In the late 1970's I noticed the pattern. America was built by blacks, women, and a couple of old white guys. They spent a whole month every year worshipping our greatest president, Martin Luther King Jr. No criticism of any black or woman was permitted in class. Luckily they hadn't put gays on a pedestal yet. Russia was still bad, but not for long.

The real truth does not fit the fake agenda. Black folks were mistreated over two hundred years ago so they deserve our love, financial support and perpetual kowtowing adoration for at least another two hundred years. Anybody who disagrees shall forever be labeled a Racist.

I listen to Prager's radio program often. A very insightful and philosophical individual. He is one of a kind and we should be thankful to have him.
I read his piece a couple of times to absorb his points. Indeed, the fake agenda of the left does conflicts with the truth. This fakery has persisted for a millennia and continues to flourish everywhere, even here. The American indoctrination centers would never educate our young people on these topics as Prager would hope.
Herein lies the societal change that must happen here to nip this problem at the source. An education system that provides the whole truth and instills reason.

The real racist are liberals who use the terminology 'racist' to beat opposition over the head by stirring blacks into a frenzy like clubs over the heads. Blacks are slaves alright to their liberal masters not any one else. Obama knew this that's why he supported this 'white folks bad' notion to advance himself like a village warlord. The Obama's sure enjoy the white man's world while protesting whites at the same time.

excellent must read.
I remember the first time I heard that only 3-5% of the Trans-Atlantic slave trade (as separate from ALL the other slave trade) came to America. While slavery is/was evil and people were certainly abused, people in the United States were comparatively compassionate... which explains the large black (and intermarried) population in the U.S. these days.

Perhaps the most valuable part of china's attempt to shut down our booming economy with the virus has been home schooling... and by the way... what ever happened to ALL those packets of seeds sent worldwide????...America didn't need seeds from china... what was all that about... just wondering...my grandchildren are thriving being home schooled by my successful children...one grandson is studying for the Space Force as an engineer...and my youngest grandson is alive with excitement about math... they are not indoctrinated with shame and social studies that teach nothing but hate...

I can already tell you.
Slavery: Slavery was a fully developed business well before 1619, and the newly colonized Northern Hemisphere was infected with that abomination by he English. But the Christian moral principles that would ultimately end slavery were written by Jefferson into the Declaration of Independence, and slavery could not survive that simple statement of God given equality. America ended the global slave trade as it existed before America came into being.
Race: Dividing humans according to superficial physical traits such as skin color and hair texture will ultimately be shown to be a ridiculous anachronism as unscientific as asserting that the world is made up of four basic elements of earth, wind, fire, and water.
Racism: The North won the civil war, but the South won reconstruction, ultimately injecting its racism into the entire American culture. It accomplished this because the North was too squeamish to root out the seeds of it during its occupation. For starters, every Klan member and every bystander at a lynching, should have been hunted down and hung as a terrorist no matter who they were. The North put up with crap the US occupation forces would never have stood for in Japan or Germany.

Slavery was widespread in the Ottoman Empire. There were white and black slaves and slavery lasted much longer than it did in the USA. There are no descendants of slaves in the remnants of the Ottoman empire because the black slaves were castrated.

How about the fact that there would be no blacks in America to whine about how badly they are treated, if they had been enslaved to muslim countries instead. Slave owners in America allowed blacks to have families and have children. Muslims castrated their black male slaves and around 90% of them died from blood loss, infections and being forced marched in chains across the deserts of Africa.
Black slaves were either sold by other black tribes, or rounded up by roaming muslim slavers. White folks had nothing to do with it.

Another fact is that there were black slave owners as well. One black slave owner in Charleston S.C. owned a number of slaves, and was wealthy enough to give each of her sons $500,000 as a gift on their wedding day. Also, not all slaves were beaten to a pulp just for being slaves. Slaves were expensive to purchase and expensive to own. Only the wealthy could afford slaves and they were unlikely to beat the crap out of their investment just for the hell of it. The trading of and selling of slaves by slave owners to other slave owners was common. A slave that was beaten up wasn't what other slave owners were looking for. Also, the beating of a slave reduced his ability to work which in turn reduced the profit the slave owner would gain from whatever his product might be trying to sell.
