Critical race theorist Ibram X. Kendi, author and contributing writer for The Atlantic, on Tuesday revealed “so many students” have come to his classrooms “angry” that they never learned about systemic racism and racism in high school.
CBS “This Morning” host Tony Dokoupil asked Kendi, “Ibram, on the subject of learning, there’s a push in schools across the country from Republicans, in particular, to emphasize the more patriotic, in their view, elements of our history as opposed to some of the darker chapters — in particular, not teaching the idea of systemic racism. As a college professor yourself, as someone in the education business, what’s your response to that?”

I thought, OK, finally we have a black President, now we can STFU about racism once and for all!
But nooooo.... the entire Obama presidency was all about race.
You couldn't even mildly disagree with his disastrous policies without being called a racist.
I disliked pretty much every one of his policies, because they were so detrimental to America.
I began to absolutely despise him over Ferguson.
He had the power to stop it in its tracks by simply saying: "I know you are disturbed by this incident, but we don't have all of the facts, yet. Let's let the system work."
How many black people were injured and killed in the riots?
How many black businesses were destroyed?
Sickest of all, he DID know the "facts" of the case, (His own AG, Holder had them the whole time) but instead ignored them and threw gasoline on the fire.
I will never forgive him for that.
I don’t believe this.
If you have to LEARN about it in school....
...YOU HAVEN’T EXPERIENCED ANY IN REAL LIFE.
Exactly. Even in my day it felt as if too many were negative and uncaring about the US. Not just teachers, but the parents and students.
Of course, this was AFTER the ‘60s when the commie hate-America push got under way.
Hmm, I guess those poor young souls were bored to tears with the Howard Zinn crap their high school teachers shoved on them they didn’t notice it. Good thing they got into Boston University so their parents could spend $60k a year exposing them to the same old Zinn Marxist screed, now dressed up as “antiracism” from Professor Kendi.
I don’t know. Good question. Maybe Biden has an answer?
