Would it be silly to ask if we can have a "white curriculum"? Of course we know the answer but surely history is history why cherry pick bits to suit an agenda?

Jim, I think it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.

It would no doubt be hard to dig up, but I know what I think and I know that I've said countless times, on AB and elsewhere, that the issue of police brutality in general needs to be addressed, especially in the US. I don't blame you if you don't take me at my word but the evidence is there, and I'll leave it to you to search for it in your own time.

I think this explains quite well why "all lives matter" isn't a more appropriate statement: https://chainsawsuit.com/comic/2016/07/09/advertising-that-works/

I'm not sure the "black history" should be a subject in it's own right, but inportant events of black history should be integrated into normal hostory lessons: the slave trade, Jim Crow laws, Apartheid, Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King etc. For the rwcord, the gay rights movement should also be included.

That had nothing to do with race, and there was almost universal disgist that he got away with it.
