        Progressive Liberal KKK. It was a Republican who freed slaves. No wonder Liberals want to destroy, twist history.

        Lincoln freed them after his ideas of sending them back to Africa or to send them to their own island in the Caribbean didn't work.

        1/ Why it's important: the Right tries to dismiss KKK & Nazis as fringe. A teacher publicly sympathizing sounds a bit more mainstream, yes?

        2/ And the fact she's trying to inculcate her students: bigotry is killed by disallowing the grownups to pass it on. This is reprehensible.

        Seems less likely this was a committed racist organizer & more, a poorly trained & clueless grade school teacher. No less disturbing if so.

        Yeah... can't have kids thinking critically and understanding opponents viewpoints so the can refute their arguments...

        Asking a ten year old African American kid to explain how the KKK justified their actions out of context is not teaching critical thinking.

        While the idea was initially good, your methodology was incorrect.Mr Teacher: it is your job to explain it to the children,not the reverse.

        Thats how you raise kids who cant think for themselves.Having to explain sth to the teacher/class is the best way to understand it yourself.

        Why ask 5th graders. Just ask Democrats since they founded the KKK. There very own brownshirt goons.

        And then the parties switched. Kindly don't talk about history when you clearly haven't bothered to learn it.
