He is an American hero. Kids should definitely be taught that he is. Not for his personal life but for his importance to the country. Any person who wants to throw out Thomas Jefferson is as nutty as those sovereign citizens who want to avoid paying taxes because they want to unAmericanize themselves. |
| CRT is about disavowing any White American regardless of their virtues while celebrating every Black American regardless of their flaws. |

See this I’d a classic example of white supremacy. A man who had a documented inappropriate relationship with 12 year old, owned many slaves, took teeth out the mouths his slaves when a white supremacist needed them, committed many other heinous acts against man kind, and just because he committed these acts against Black people, you aren’t going to let that get in the way of this man being a hero. He makes R Kelly look like an angel. |
So this is probably true of the majority of white southern landowners in the 1700s. That doesn't mean that the many of them did not have an important role in our history and independence. |
Yes, classic. |
Just because they had a role, doesn’t meant they were good people. |
You'd be a subject of the Queen of England without him. You can't ignore his contributions to the founding of our country, full stop. Human beings can do horrible things and still be important historical figures. You can't just cancel him out of our history books and pretend he never existed. |
Every thing he is credited with doing should be acknowledged, even the bad things. |
If this isn't a troll post, it's a huge huge problem for the CRT people. |
R Kelly has no redeeming qualities, and has contributed nothing of lasting value to our society, so find a better analogy next time. |
TJ really didn’t do much to that couldn’t have been done by someone else. |
Ignorant statements like this is why parents are objecting to CRT in the classroom. You’re making your opponents case for them. |
This is the dumbest thing I have read since Trump left office. Part of my brain just liquified reading this. |
Say what you want. The man was a POS, a pedofile, and a sex offender. |
