MY LITTLE SISTER’S HISTORY TEACHER IS MAKING THEM LIST THE “POSITIVE EFFECTS” OF IMPERIALISM??????
forcing students into the mental exercise of justifying/rationalizing genocide because of its supposed “positive effects” itself perpetuates genocide and indoctrinates them into supporting an imperial war machine.
my sister is @CeceWalsh3 btw <3
and to be clear, this is a public high school in one of the most "progressive" cities in the US — Cambridge, MA.
it's not just Republicans banning CRT that are revising history — racist, imperialist revisionism it is a key objective of the entire US education system.
Yeah, this seems like the most likely explanation. They probably do one of these every lesson and the person preparing the resource just whacked it into that same format out of convenience.
