    At this OK BOE meeting, all the speakers blasting critical race theory and pushing for enforcing penalties for teachers appeared to be white women. The lone speaker defending teaching history was a black girl student. “Doesn’t my life matter? Doesn’t my experience matter?

        There is virtually no history that is true and valid of the United States which does not include how race played a part in it. Start with the framing of the constitution and go from there, the famous 3/5 compromise was only one example. We are seeing now about the Alamo.

        That she was the only defender speaks volumes about most Americans’ willingness to tolerate about anything as long as they don’t have to get involved.
