“There was a sale of a black child by white children in the classroom”
No there was not. It was simulated. They cannot tell fact from fiction.
The purpose of this was to place the burden of guilt for slavery on the backs of modern-day kids.
I see what you did there.
When I was in high school, the Black Student group had a slave auction every year. Girls would “buy” a guy to carry their books, carry their tray, etc.
Beyond stupid.
You know what's even more painful than slavery? The brutal death that comes with war. Perhaps we should stop teaching about war in history class since it might traumatize some kids. And when we talk about Medieval history, we shouldn't talk about the Black Death and Medieval torture chambers since that will traumatize some kids. History class can become one big Kumbaya session.
They would have HATED the “slave auctions” when i was in junior high school. Those were for fun!
Seriously do kids learn anything about history that’s not related to slavery?
So, did the lesson address the involvement of blacks in Africa who participated in the slave trade?
Oh, I didn’t think so. That would be offensive to the snowflake mentality.
This is to indoctrinate future generations to write a check for reparations.
Selective history to benefit the protected classes.
I played Cowboys and Indians as a child. Sometimes I was the Cowboy, sometimes I was the Indian. Sometimes my playmate of Nisqually ancestry was the Cowboy. Sometimes he was the Indian. This marked me for life and that is why I am the way that I am. ;)
I told my high school baseball players that the most important war in the history of the US was the Civil War. That once you get to studying it in earnest, you’ll never stop.
I was in 2 “slave” auctions when I was in HS as a fund raiser. The second time I was purchased by the best looking black cheerleader in school. Did I mind? No. Did other students mind? No. Did parents get there panties in a bunch? No. People, people people, folks are getting there heads chopped off in the middle east and you are getting all worked up over this?? Your priorities are in the wrong order, GROW THE F UP and stop your whining.
The only problem is they got the roles wrong. In Cairo, Egypt they hold MONTHLY SLAVE AUCTIONS in the Town Square, and Have for Many Many Years. The Saudi’s didn’t end Slavery, they just kept it under wraps and hidden since the 60’s. They only did that because they wanted to Trade with the World and we Forced them in to that position. But Slavery is still Practiced in 45% of the Countries in the World Today, including AFRICA where it is 90%
How about teaching slavery today versus BLM from 200 years ago.

Next up, a mock gassing of Jews to demonstrate The Holocaust.
The big annual slave auction is coming April 27 in Philadelphia. Its called “NFL Draft.”
If they didn’t have some Irish and Newgate Prisnors on the block then it wasn’t realistic.
Wow, I, and my dad before me, went to school in that system long ago. My how times changed. In those days, there were few to pick from for slaves. Not so much today.
It used to be one of the top school systems in the state. Again, not so much today.
I always struggle with when buying slaves if I should get the extended warranty package
It was done by a substitute teacher. We need to know the race of the sub. If he’s white then this is stupid only because of the backlash. If he’s black then there is clearly some motivation behind this that is not good.
