    Christ that’s painfully stupid

    Everyone knows history started on Jan 1st 1970. (this is a UNIX time joke)

  3. GoodieTreeheart says

    The actual fuck………..?

  4. puddingdemon says

    Oklahoma tried to ban all schools from teaching about African and native Americans before 1970. This isn’t new

  5. aescobar32 says

    Can we do the same with religion?

  6. coolluck33 says

    I’m willing to bet that the administration that passed this stupid policy is majority Caucasian, election denying Republicans.

    Apparently not.

    “And on the 2,190,000th day, God created black people.”

    Alabama just being Alabama. That entire corner of the country is a cesspit.

    That’s how they teach history anyway. Nothing happened before white Europeans.

    Shame the OP altered the headline in direct contradiction to rule 1

    > Do not alter headlines; copy and paste.

    Genuine headline is

    > 200 students stage walkout at Hillcrest High School in protest over Black History Month program

  12. valgrind_error says

    If you’re being this transparent, why choose the 1970s? Why not just say Black History Month can’t discuss anything before Barack Obama became president and racism in America was solved forever?

    Also, does this mean that teachers could just discuss the rest of Black history during the non-Black History Month months? Could this actually be a 5head big brain move by the school board to make Black history a valid and important part of the curriculum in every month of the school year?

  13. Realistic-Original-4 says

    Teaching black history will not be tolerated during black history month.

  14. FriesWithThat says

    Alabama, Florida, et al: Black history began after the Civil Right Act, after which there was no institutionalized racism, we’re also actively working towards completely nullifying the Civil Rights Act because it is too woke and divisive. We’re sure everything will be fine because no one has any idea what occurred during these dark ages anymore.

    Gosh, it’s probably going to get pretty awkward when we get to the birthday of that guy we can’t talk about anymore.
