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.
My little brother is in his sophomore year of high school and last semester he had an assignment for his world history class in which he had to make a list of the "pros and cons" of the British colonization of India. Extremely grim shit coming out of the US educational system.
