[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]“It’s just another attack on trying to make history what they want it to be," said James Fedderman, President of the Virginia Education Association. In the 53-page document, policies outline what and when certain subjects are taught to Virginia students. Many difficult topics such as lynching would not be taught until 6th grade, and Christopher Columbus' role in the slave trade by 11th grade. "There is also a [b]removal of content of Martin Luther King Jr from the K-5 standards, no mention of Juneteenth,[/b] removal of content of LGBTQ+ histories," Fedderman said.[/quote] Speaking as a former Texan, there's really no reason that Virginian grade schoolers need to learn anything about Juneteenth. Ftr, MLK is in the 6th grade standard.[/quote] Agree. Juneteenth is part of Texas history.[/quote] It is a federal holiday now, sweetie.[/quote]
