Was listening to lectures on how medieval authorities put the fear of Hell into children, and now it's telling children they're bad because their ancestors came from Spain 500 years ago. Lots of wrong has been done, but preaching heavy sin and guilt to children seems wrong.

Despicable. Free eduction is not the hallmark of an oppressive society. How about teaching students useful life skills instead of victimhood and Marxist political theory.
