An academic who helped craft Florida’s African American history curriculum called out Vice President Kamala Harris for mischaracterizing the course material in interview footage ABC News left on the cutting room floor. The Florida Board of Education recently approved a new curriculum for African American history, with a section on how "slaves developed skills which, in some instances, could be applied for their personal benefit" drawing heavy criticism.
Harris condemned this line in a recent speech, declaring that "they decided middle school students will be taught that enslaved people benefited from slavery. They insult us in an attempt to gaslight us, and we will not stand for it."

I would recommend Kamala visit The Hermitage just outside of Nashville, TN which was the home of Andrew Jackson.
The mill there was essentially run by two of his enslaved people, and they were so good at what they did, local merchants would have the Jackson estate mill do their work.
She, and many other Democrats, MAY learn something other than their knee-jerk reaction.
The Revolutionary War was from 1775 - 1783
George Washington didn't become President until 1789 - 1797
Congress outlawed the importation of slaves in 1807
Andrew Jackson was elected President 1829 - 1837
I highly recommend reading "The American Lion" as it's at a period of time in the early part of the United States. You also learn about how people realized quickly that the money and power were in Washington DC so they congregated there to curry favors. You'll see a lot of things that are similar to today, still.
From 1933 - 1995 Democrats controlled the House of Representatives except 2 times. So, if anyone is complaining about institutional problems, you can look to the Democrats who set up and ran the system for the better part of 60 years.

Kamala's family was Indian/British plantation owners in Jamaica...that owned slaves.
Perhaps she is speaking from Family traditions where THEY made sure no slaves learned anything of any value, just worked them until they died.
Keep also in mind...African slaves were slaves in africa, captured, bought, or collected by africans, sold to arabs, long before being brought across the seas. In africa they only learned to be porters, carrying ivory or other trade goods, while also capturing and enslaving others. Women were only sold into Harams, and never again saw another male except their owners for as long as they lived.

Commie-La has no relations that ever were slaves. But, she IS decended from a Jamaican slave holder.
Tell us about your slave owning ancestors, Commie....tell us how it is OK.

If she ever had an original thought it would die of loneliness.

kamala's comments were national news. The academic's rebuttal will not get the same exposure. Mission accomplished.

If Kamala had a position on The View she would be the lowest IQ idiot there and that brings her into doorknob territory.

The two MOST OUTRAGEOUS examples of Inaccurate / Dishonest Black History this Century are : Kamala Harris and Barry Soetoro perpetuating the falsehoods that THEY are "African Americans" !
Sure, they both have dark skin...( and therefore it's "RACIST" to question anything bthey claim) ....but actually NEITHER of them has ANY of the American " slave blood" ....

#4 has a critical point. Almost no "free men" were directly captured and brought as slaves to the New World - Roots notwithstanding. They were already captured , enslaved and then sold to the traders. So what about those who captured them, bound them and brought them to be transported? Do their descendants also get to pay reparations? Hardly likely. They are ALL West African blacks living in abject poverty, earning a small percentage of what American blacks make. This must be honestly reported and taught to today's school children for history to have any meaning.

I watched Dr. William Allen, one of the authors of the African American history for Florida, on Jesse Watters' show and found him to be thoughtful, intelligent, and refuted all the idiotic claims of V.P. CommieLa who lied through her teeth!
This man, Dr. Allen, is a national treasure and a blessing to the black community.

Every time commie harris speaks...I cringe...she floats all over the place...and I'm thinking perhaps the cocraine in the White House was hers....she doesn't talk in normal sentences and gestures violently and cackles uncontrollably ...is this why obama picked her to be the Vice President....he made a big mistake....and I'll bet he knows that now....
