      Wow, @learnfreckle sure has some racist trash material in its social studies. "How much of the world was explored by 1482?" You mean, by non-white people? MOST OF IT.pic.twitter.com/iTK3MaYrYT

      More crap from @learnfreckle which is ridiculously biased. It's 1482--most of Western Europe was "dominated by the Catholic Church." The materials are ridiculously biased towards a British Protestant-centric worldview, like something from the 50s.pic.twitter.com/ragXgJkbfK

      Did you know that Indigenous peoples in the Northeast were warlike and aggressive? You will if you study with @learnfreckle IDK, I recall something called the "Great Law of Peace," but YMMV. (Also, cool to know that 3 sisters agriculture only existed in the Southeast? Cool cool.)pic.twitter.com/ZuqITKzK4G

      More from @learnfreckle . It's so ridiculously anglo-centric. Apparently French and Spanish colonialism doesn't exist. There are so many factual issues here- with removal/ assimilationist policies assigned to (English) colonists that were actively exterminationist.pic.twitter.com/jAUfJCKjat

      It's 2020 and @learnfreckle has yet to discover that "European" is not synonymous with "British," and that the slave trade did not, actually, begin in 1619.pic.twitter.com/RdZDnTZJzw

      One of the "fun" parts of the @Learnfreckle Civil War is: students are assigned a part write diary entries about how they feel about things like secession, John Brown, and the Emancipation Proclamation. I'm not sure what the value is of forcing children to take on these roles:pic.twitter.com/JmuygGXNxk

      If your child's school is using @learnfreckle for its social studies materials, be aware they're learning racist, anglo-centric nonsense. /fin

      PS. Obviously it has never occurred to @learnfreckle that real, live Indigenous children exist. Or that encouraging non-Indigenous children to DRAW A PICTURE OF ALL THEIR RACIST STEREOTYPES might be a bad idea.pic.twitter.com/pTreOiicwT

          If you've been following the @learnfreckle debacle, you're probably unsurprised to learn that their material on the Holocaust is problematic. Like when they use the term "Caucasian" instead of "white." TFW you explain racism by using explicitly racist terminology. pic.twitter.com/eOxKvsEK6L

          Then there's @learnfreckle suggesting that the Nazis wanted to "remove the power and influence of Christianity."

          Well, I finally delved into @Learnfreckle 's materials on colonial North America. More racist, ethnocentric, and just plain inaccurate nonsense. "mostly Britons." And what on earth are the "Province Plantations"? Was that supposed to be PROVIDENCE? cc @PhUsct @DrCatfromMars pic.twitter.com/CNEjUg3LIX

          This constant writing out of Spanish colonialism is a problem on many levels, but for one thing, it directly contributes to the rabid anti-Hispanic prejudice. Roanoke settlers were the first European settlers in North America? BIG IF TRUE (it's not). pic.twitter.com/gqY3nZe84V

          Again, no colonial powers other than the English exist. And the only "people" who live in "North American colonies" are, apparently British subjects living under English law. This reads like it was written pre-1990s. pic.twitter.com/tZHaBTBHZn
