Critical race theory [I Sympathize With Native Americans]

I wonder if the right also doesn't want the history of Native Americans taught to their children? Is any history that makes them uncomfortable intolerable?

Probably. We already have Republican lawmakers suggesting that schools should teach the ‘good side’ of slavery. If they’re uncomfortable about understanding the horrific history of American slavery, then they would be just as uncomfortable learning about the history of Native Americans.

I'm not American so please excuse the question: what do they mean by 'the good side ' and is this idea promoted by anyone with real influence?

They had stability. Not all were beaten or raped. Some lived in good conditions and a few were set free. @ninalanyon

@ninalanyon no to your 2nd question but a fair # of confederate apologists claim many slaves were happy with their lot - these aren't people I would socialize with on any level
