@jj-adams saidYou are correct, but if the "racism" they teach is about US History, like slavery, then it is a story that must be told, IMO.
They get told about racism from the cradle they don't need any college classes to keep repeating it.
I personally do not have a problem with teaching the students that almost all slaves were owned by Democrats.
@earl-of-trumps saidOr that all the Southern Democrats had become Republicans by 1930.

They are both negative concepts, both prevalent, yet you libs are being quite selective to pick the one that suits you. Frankly, I figure you don't pick the other, as it might shine a little unwanted light on an aspect of our society which you would like to go unnoticed!
Would someone please give me a thumbs up on this post.

Is this why you don't like to talk about real racism, preferring to couch it in other terms (like "culture" )?
And I'll give you a thumb-up when you deserve it, not before. So far, nothin'. Sorry, not sorry.
@suzianne saidContrare', I make a good point. I wonder why you segue from my post? You unbelievably ask me a question about 'why' I do something, when why is irrelevant, and your comment is irrelevant. It is not about me, Suzianne. It is about comparing Racism 101 to Murder 101. Equally bad facts of life.

Suck it up and say Joe, you have a good issue here. Can you be the one to give me a thumb up? Geeez. You are the contrarian that Marauder is.
@jj-adams saidJJ is right. All this does is divide D'Quanya from Billy, sitting next to her in class. Making her resentful. Building up the hate. Why don't sociologists follow the thinking of JJ and AvJoe.?
Kids are taught about evil racist America from kindergarten on, they don't need any more training in how to hate America in college or anyplace else, we are constantly bombarded with media claims of how awful the USA is......while whites are led like lambs to the slaughter.
@averagejoe1 saidNo thumbs up for you.

Better question,, Susieanne, why do you insist on talking about racism so much? Answer us that!
The only reason why you want to talk about racism is so you can browbeat people and you know it.
You want to talk about racism,, Susie?? Ok, why are you such a racist??
