A Mississippi middle school is facing backlash after a teacher assigned an essay asking students to pretend they re slaves.
The incident took place at Purvis Middle School in Lamar County, Mississippi, as part of what was supposed to be a lesson on the atrocities and negatives of slavery,” WDAM7 reported.
Titled the “Slave Letter Writing Activity,” the assignment prompted the students to “pretend like you are a slave working on a Mississippi plantation” and “write a letter to your family back in Africa or in another American state describing your life.”
