So now we’re teaching history through rap. We’re teaching inaccurate and distorted history through rap. We’re teaching about some complicated historical issues through rap, which doesn’t lend itself to detailed discussions of the history of events such as Andrew Jackson’s presidency.
I am speechless that supposedly education enlightened educators come up with this kind of crap.
I wonder if they teach Jackson says bring it.
Is it any better if their boring, State-approved textbooks say exactly the same thing, only don’t get any attention? At least this is making the community pay attention to the nonsense their children are being taught.
If we’re going to teach history through a musical genre, if I were to concede for just a moment that rap is music < spit >, then we should be teaching it through classical music, which study after study has proven encourages intelligent thought.
