Looking at those titles above, they seem to be leftist propaganda…
You can’t always blame racism for what is going on. I get it, there is police brutality with what happened to george floyd… but it also happens to white people…
I tell you… It’s ok to be white.. and don’t blame the current generation for slavery and “racism”… racism excists in every country… go to singapore… the chinese are racist against white people, even white British people are racist against white Americans… some black people are actually blatantly racist against whites and you ignore and tolerate it…It’s ok to be white… and I am a brown Asian legal immigrant… the only thing that can help our kids from what is going on today is to stop them going on social media like fb and twitter… and stop watching propaganda news like cnn and msnbc etc.. thank you
To show Legacy’s concern for learning more about the tragic events that has been going on for centuries, that recently reached another point of disruption to societal norms due to the death of George Floyd; try consciously including Black and Brown people in your advertisements for the Legacy Traditional school organization. The blatant disregard to how people of color respond when they are a part of an institution but not represented in the decision making process on a level that matters. The disregard for not teaching our children their history. Skimming over the true treatment of the Indigenous people that are still being treated unfairly. These things are consciously being done to our children. The school system should have an international day so that everyone (the students) get the opportunity to learn about their neighbor. I suggested for Black History month that the older students should have to identify a historical figure and research them. Present their paper, of a few paragraphs, to the student body. I have come to realize that people respect things that they have knowledge of. If young minds only see the hatred that our society presents to them they will never have respect for people that they (the students) deem unworthy, shiftless, thieving, rapist, and welfare recipients. If we expect more from our children, we have to give them cause to want to do more and be better citizens in this great nation.
