Sort of like if you learn all about the color blue, but they never mention to you that this color is called blue. You still know all about the color. Just not its official name.

That's all I meant by that.
Please simply look at the source of this discourse....from where the “noise” is coming from....ignore the Marxist twist added to get your attention, and understand this 40 year old concept never said to directly teach anything. You will be hearing rpthat it does, but it is not true.

This will divide us, but again, it began this last year.....it is being wrapped and packaged. Teachers are anti this movement, because they do not wish to deny our kids the truth.....they are not suggesting a direct lesson plan, although that could be plausible. Our history is a living and wonderful thing.....this movement is a P movement and frankly lying to our kids does not seem appropriate
