Who's enslaved in the U.S.?
Who is oppressed?
There are still "native" people around?
Do they still do a rain dance when needed?

The 1619 project is about the history of the enslaved, oppressed, and natives throughout US history. Someone doesn't have to be currently enslaved to learn about past enslavement.

My parents had 7 kids. We still went to regular schools. We all have unique points of view. Would that have occurred, had we home schooled? I doubt it? Home schooling encourages sameness of thought rather than individuality.

It seems to only be the USA where slavery gets talked about where its been around for thousands of years all around the world and still goes on in some places today. What about the islamic slave trade under the ottoman empire that included white europeans who were enlsaved up to the 19th century. What about the hebrews. What about the many.

You have attended regular school, right? Yes, regular school kids are of the devil!

Oh I get it now. I'm of the devil because I attended a regular school. Interesting.
If home schooling represents God, I would rather be aligned with the devil anyway. But I suspect the real God is more broad minded than that.

“US HISTORY” needs to be viewed beginning in 1776.

Before that it was mostly European and British influenced.



Here is a basic snap shot.



The arrival of Christopher Columbus in 1492 started the European colonization of the Americas. Most colonies were formed after 1600, and the United States was the first nation whose most distant origins are fully recorded.[a] By the 1760s, the thirteen British colonies contained 2.5 million people along the Atlantic Coast east of the Appalachian Mountains. After defeating France, the British government imposed a series of taxes, including the Stamp Act of 1765, rejecting the colonists' constitutional argument that new taxes needed their approval. Resistance to these taxes, especially the Boston Tea Party in 1773, led to Parliament issuing punitive laws designed to end self-government. Armed conflict began in Massachusetts in 1775. In 1776, in Philadelphia, the Second Continental Congress declared the independence of the colonies as the "United States".

Nobody seems to talk about the enslaved Jews by the black Egyptians for 430 years.

Being committed to God means there is nothing you would rather be aligned with than God and God alone. That's what being born again is all about. A born again person would rather die than be aligned with or serve the devil.

The unions themselves are promoting many corrupt things such as gender neutral language, as well as the gay lifestyle as being normal, in which a great effort is being made normalize the LGBQT perspective.


Not all teachers agree with this, but by and large we are seeing this mindset “growing“ instead of “shrinking”.

Critical Race Theory and the 1619 project are about incorporating more history from the points of view of the enslaved, oppressed, and native peoples of the US.

Critical Race Theory is just that, a theory. It’s not history.
