That means you will read the Confederates' own writings on why they seceded, especially the Confederate vice president's speech on how Africans are inferior and the institution slavery should be preserved.
> Statistics, research methods
yes
> biology I and II
meh, waste of time learning about the Krebs Cycle and the Carbon Cycle
rather have two biology classes that focuses on the important basics : human anatomy, human physiology, human genetics
> Might even require intro to chemistry and intro to physics for non-science majors
this should obviously be required
> World history and world geography courses will actually cover the world and not just Europe.
they already do - hell, my high school courses covered the Middle East, Egypt, China, Japan, South America, Mexico, Panama, Madagascar, Easter Island
> U.S. history will be taught accurately with all the good, bad, and ugly.
it already is

LOL, no
what they want to keep out is this ridiculous CRT nonsense
also require World Religions
Maybe some colleges cover actual world geography, but my high school class spent almost the entire year on Europe.
There is no CRT being taught in K-12 classes or even the vast majority of college classes; people are just causing mass hysteria over nothing. CRT is for law school. A man went on the news to complain about CRT because his child was taught about the Jim Crow era, which has always been taught. Ridiculously stupid. If you can't handle that your kids will learn about slavery and segregation, then homeschool them and keep them ignorant.
The Texas government intervened and canceled an event because it was going to discuss the Battle of the Alamo's connection to slavery. That should be a 1st Amendment violation because this is the government suppressing speech.

I attended K-12 in Texas, and there was a lot I didn't learn about Texas history. We didn't learn about how Texans withheld the information that slaves were free for over two years. It's the reason why we have Juneteenth. We didn't learn that American settlers in Texas wanted independence from Mexico because Mexico wanted to outlaw slavery and require people to learn Spanish. We didn't learn that the Texas Rangers lynched hundreds of Mexican landowners to steal their land.
