DeSantis signs bill limiting tenure at Florida public universities

[sacredrain]

I have seen similar arguments in North Carolina, recently over history. In fact there are people who are upset that slavery is not being taught enough and there are people who do not even want it taught at all. History should be taught exactly as it happened--even if it upsets people. I can remember being in middle school and my 8th grade history teacher was teaching the Holocaust. She had all of the Caucasian non Jewish students go one side of the room and all of the students who were Jewish and non Caucasian go to the other side. She then pointed out that us non Caucasian students (I am biracial African American/Caucasian) would have been sent to the gas chambers. This really made me feel deeply about the Holocaust. Of course in today's time, that particular teacher would be vilified or called racist for doing what she did.
