Most college students have no business being in college. Unfortunately nobody wants to tell them that.

Survey showed a few years ago that around 40% of young people were not able to properly place in time sequence the American Civil War and World War II.

Un-fricking-believable.

Or at least should be.

This is the number one reason dems and leftists refuse to tell the truth about slavery and Africa’s part in it... The narrative is america is racist and bad..How does the narrative go if students find out Africa got rich selling their own people????

Muslims (and specifically Egyptians and others in the Bible)
were ahead of the USA. Maybe someone should teach that in schools.

Our educational system is a dismal failure.

I recently perused too quickly a similar article, I think someone posted on FR, but darn it I cannot remember the title or anything and want to reread it.

Anyway, that author wrote that many of his students did not know who Hitler was and were ignorant of a couple of other things that I can’t remember.

People can (and do) say what they will about the execution threads, and Headsman does let a little of his liberal bias slip through.

However, if kids spent several hours reading that blog, they would learn an awful lot about history.

If true, its a stark reflection on our education system, parents included.

Slavery goes back to the dawn of time, and was often far more brutal than slavery in America, which was only a relic of the British Empire. Slavery of Africans was mainly a result of other Africans, who sold some of their slaves to the Arabs, who in turn sold some of theirs to Europeans. Arabs also enslaved Europeans, which history (as told by liberals) has all but been forgotten.

I earned my BA in History in 1975. I received an outstanding education that has served me well in life.

It is so disgusting what the left has done to that discipline.

[SpaceBar]

So most college students are stupid, let’s not candy coat it.

Sad how pathetic and contemptible out system of indoctrination has become.

I would propose that the reason Trump was twice impeached was payback for Clinton. Make America Great Again had to be exorcised from American history because too many people remembered what it was really like.

[miserare]

Unbelievable!

How do these very ignorant youngsters get into college in the first place?

[Sasparilla]

What passes for education today is an abomination

[wjcsux]

I’m guessing that these snowflakes were never taught about Egypt, Babylon, Greece, Rome and the Ottoman Empire.

[Truth29]

It is a wonder that Professor Pesta has not been canceled.

[wjcsux]

I’m wondering if any of today’s college students knows who William Wilberforce was and what he accomplished.

Slavery is still very much alive in Africa today. It was Africans who captured and sold the slaves that ended up in America until they were emancipated by WHITE MEN who fought and died to set them free.

Black people should pay white people reparations
