>_< All they would teach at my school was Black History and columbus...I had to learn AND sing the Nigro National Anthem and read Roots 2 years in a row. A LOT of teachers in the school were black. My opinion on this is: Let black teachers teach and make the class optional for other races or let any teacher teach. 😞
I can't see the problem with a white Teacher teaching Black History. If s/he's qualified to teach it, let him/her do it.
"How do you work through that when the person teaching it is the same type of person who did the enslaving?"
I find this comment disturbing. It wasn't the teacher who did the enslaving, even if he shares the colour.
The teacher shouldn't matter. If someone can't get over a white teacher then they have problems.

This quote is ridiculous. I hate it when people blame other for something that happened centuries ago and neither of them had anything to do with it.
i'm still waiting for arab history month/classes. and irish history month/classes, etc.
