Arizona bans ethnic studies in public schools

american-apologies:

From CNN:

“The new law forbids elementary or secondary schools to teach classes that are ‘designed primarily for pupils of a particular ethnic group’ and advocate ‘the overthrow of the United States government’ or ‘resentment toward a race or class of people.’”

Hmm, it makes you wonder, why would anyone have any resentment towards privileged whites who have historically supported systematic and institutionalized racism towards minorities throughout the history of our nation? It’s okay, you don’t have to answer that.

This is outrageous. Arizona needs to get the hell out of here. Are you serious? I can’t even write an articulate response to this right now, I am outraged.
