Teaching truth
Re: “Let white kids learn truth of slavery,” Another View, July 17:
Many public school teachers, active and retired, have always taught U.S. history as described by Frances McGovernor in her recent op-ed.
As a fifth grade teacher, I used a curriculum provided by Texas Law-Related Education called “We The People.” It doesn’t use the term “critical race theory,” but it certainly employs it. Another great resource is a series of 11 books, “The History of US,” by Joy Hakim. It is filled with primary source documents. Again, there is no mention of CRT, but the message is there.
