[quote=Anonymous]Suburban school district in Mass - we sang all the African American spirituals, Lift Every Voice & Sing, pick a bale of cotton, some Americana stuff like John Henry type songs & folk songs. Our teacher was African American (in our mostly white wealthy suburb) and we got plenty of context about slavery. I am always surprised when the black national anthem gets sung cause I'm like 'why was I learning this & all these spirituals in 5th grade?' In hindsight, super 'woke' which the PP thinks didn't happen. Also kinda awkward? But yes, also sang the cat song, and then in jr high a lot of the popular songs of the day (Greatest Gift of All, The Children Are the Future, Godspell album which was really throwback 70s).[/quote]
