Jews, we need to speak out against DeSantis’ efforts to erase Black history

[Truck Fump / h1b]

CRT and its cousin Intersectionality, are not about teaching history at all. It is simply a means of indoctrination into what amounts to a variant of Marxist culture and Communism.

but what communism is is an insincere populism, devoted only to gaining power.

it's no different than keynesian economics.

are you willing to call keynesianism communism? cuz it is.

Communism is a dictatorship of virtue in which you are forced to be altruistic in every way the government demands it of you.

I am just going to say what we are all thinking. When DeSantis is done with the Blacks, he would probably come after the Jews next.

So opposing teaching children to hate white people is akin to the extermination of 6 million people?

yes. that is what they believe and teach.

whites must be hated.

whites are the new niggers.

In Germany, schools are mandated to teach about the Holocaust. Perhaps it’s time we took a page from their book.

It should also deeply bother and spur into action every Jew who has ever said “Never Again” and meant it.

As a community, we know firsthand the importance of learning from the horrors of the past — and ensuring that the wider public is educated about them.


This should be a ‘Jewish issue’ too
Yet this latest bill strikes at the very core of Judaism’s commandment to learn from history. It’s not just about the Holocaust. Every year during Passover, we contemplate what it means to have been slaves and are literally commanded to experience the holiday as if we are in Egypt ourselves — and then learn from it how to treat others.

This isn’t just about sympathizing with another group. Within the Jewish community, we have members who are Black and multiracial. Teaching about African American history and culture involves teaching about the history of African American Jews, and for that reason alone, we should see it as a Jewish issue.

DeSantis’ strategy isn’t new. Throughout history, those bent on inflaming racial and ethnic tensions, or those who simply wanted to use an easy scapegoat, have tried to limit how we talk about the past.


“DeSantis is using an age-old trick used to persecute groups like members of the African and Jewish diasporas; he is striking aim at memory and practice of tradition and culture,” says Michael Twitty, a writer whose works examine his Black and Jewish identity and whose book Koshersoul recently won the National Jewish Book Award.

When I reached out to hear his reaction to the news, Twitty cited examples such as Christian leaders in Europe calling for the burning of Jewish texts and American white slaveholders forbidding enslaved people from sharing their culture. “It’s clear that his war with cultural and historical literacy is pointed and intentionally devastating,” he adds.

As always the democrats lie about what DeSantis is doing. DeSantis is stopping the racist CRT agenda from being taught in the schools. DeSantis wants the real history taught not the democrtats revisionist racist teachings

it's also actually crony capitalism. there's still goods and services, there are just huge fascist cartels dominating all markets.

 

[Truck Fump / h1b]

We teach it from the white mans point of view. We slant it to make it look better. Now the Desantis faction wants to whitewash it even more.

how is it slanted?

do tell, shitheel.

I hope you aren't holding your breath waiting for an answer.

 

[PostmodernProphet]

Yet you wake up every day and preach the destruction of people you disagree with. I would point out to you how hypocritical that is but you're either too disinterested to care or too stupid to understand it. I think it's clearly the latter.

valid point......guano bleeds critical race theory.......can you imagine any parent wanting Guano to teach their children?......

You might be interested to know this but in the CHRISTIAN FAITH there is the concept of "original sin". It teaches us that we are all fallen and flawed..

They teach this to children in churches all the time. Have for CENTURIES.

christianity also allows for forgiveness and redemption.

guilting white children generations after slavery has ended is unacceptable.

so go eat dog dick.

No, it's exactly the same thing. It's called being aware of your past so you don't do it again. And, yes, if we want to we can feel guilty that hundreds of years of our country's history was built on the blood and pain of black people. And we can accept and see how that racism is still affecting us. No matter how hard you guys shut your eyes.

ongoing active guilting and pretending nothing has changed is not education, it's lies.

 

[Saint Guinefort]

Well, that's Christianity. I wouldn't call it "lies", but rather a chance to understand our failures so we can endeavor to change.

But that doesn't seem to be your thing.

All one needs to do to know who this forum's racists, haters, bigots, and fascists are is to look who thanked Asshat's post, #2.

Of course. All fascists and authoritarians need scapegoats.
