“Patriotic” Education: UNpatriotic and UNeducational, 4/25/2015

Ask yourself a question:  do you love your country, or do you just love the makeup your country wears?  Do you love “Good Morning, America”--- with all of her bad breath and plaque and body odor and bed hair--- or do you just love “America, the Beautiful” after she’s been sanitized and dressed in designer fabric?
In light of all this Valdosta flag-stomping controversy, I thought this would be a good time to address false patriotism--- in education.

Let’s Make a Deal: Black History Month Programs for a Fully-IntegratedU.S. History Curriculum

That’s right:  while 1954’s Brown vs. Board of Education integrated public facilities across America, in 2015, U.S. History Curriculums are still segregated.  In a 10 month school year, 1 month of Black History, 1 month of Native American History, 1 month of Latin American History, and the remainder dedicated to “the Establishment”… yeah, that’s segregation, folks.  Read it.  Weep.
