        Nowhere near enough. You know who taught me about Emmett Till? Twitter, like last yr. Thats a fuckin problem. I dont need my information handed to me: I like learning & studying...but a lot of ppl avoid it, AND it's harder to study what you don't know to look up. Myriad problems.

        Too much women’s history, too much African American History, too much Latino and Asian-American history? The answer would be the same. Questions like these are a Rorschach’s test of white insecurity of a society in which history is not literally written to justify our privilege.

        Too much? I graduated in 1988 and everything I learned actually came from watching Eyes On the Prize on PBS.

        Almost 20 years ago, Rs and Ds were not that far apart on this issue. This alone is a disaster, one of many in this country.

        Hard to tell if this stems from GOP's racist history, or their anti-intellectual history.

        I’m sure it’s coincidental that Black History Month is the shortest month of the year. Hum... 🤔

        I cannot even get the whole "too much" Maybe it pains them to have to acknowledge *all * that was silenced/disregarded/white-appropriated (and let's be honest about the fact that well too much was lost forever) truth and stories The abject need for superiority......
