For millenia (as far as we have records, starting with schools in ancient China - Confucius comes to mind) mankind educated its offspring without any specific diversity education. As there were no particular problem, one must conclude that it was not needed. It is a recent phenomenon, and artificial one, to boot.

Jane Elliot is from that generation who can't let go of past racial issues. Also, her life earnings depend on making mountains out of molehills. BTW, I didn't know about ethnic diversity or racial issues till I went to college and people started preaching to me the need for racial diversity. I didn't need it in my life and it wasn't essential to my education.

Let's be fair.

It's doubtful that there was much diversity to educate people about in ancient China.
