If you believe that the country was founded on racism as it's guiding principle in 1619, and that such racism is still extant today, then yes, you will believe what you just typed. And a percentage of kids who have been taught that will continue to believe it to their dying days, all enabled by people burying their heads in the sand about what has been, and is, going on in many K-12 schools.
Kids in my son's history class yesterday were saying they were scared for their lives because Trump won and it was a clear sign that the nation was racist. Some girls were scared about a national abortion ban. Son said "not gonna lie, girls like to be dramatic." And even though I told him not to talk about the election if he didn't have to (we're having an ongoing conversation about Trump and his buddies are Trump supporters so he's leaning that way), I guess he raised his hand and said "Let's try to look on the bright side: gas and food prices should go down." I asked him where he heard that and he said "Dad, don't prices always go down with Republicans?" "No, son, no they do not." Ugh. I guess you should never expect your kid to get good sex or political advice from their friends.
