At my son's school district, they don't teach about genocide because it's "inappropriate"...

@SwampFlower My awkward moment was when i heard them say that slaves were happy because they learned trades. As if they had no trades already before they were kidnapped, tortured , raped, and murdered.

@AngelUnforgiven some were born into it. We learnt about the underground railroad they used to escape. Don't get caught though, that was an even less pleasant life

@SwampFlower you should of been given an award for speaking up. I'm disgusted the more I find out.

And I'm sorry you had to go through that. I'd of given you the biggest hug and made that teachers day go wrong.

@SwampFlower I'm so sorry. I don't know what else to say. It makes me ashamed. My mom raised me with native American spirituality and didn't hide any of humanities dark realities from me. She would call the school and argue with my teachers 😂 (she was a teacher too) so I always naively thought things were improving. I saw in my travels they are not.

If I was there I'd of fought for you girl. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for everything.
