A North Carolina school district has issued an apology after students at one elementary school created pro-slavery tweets and hashtags for a Civil War-era assignment. Students at Waxhaw Elementary School were encouraged to adopt personas from the Civil War era, then write mock tweets from the perspectives of the characters. An image posted to the Facebook page of Waxhaw Elementary School showed images of some of the offensive, pro-slavery mock tweets that were displayed in a classroom wall as something students were “most proud of.” Students included hashtags like  #SlaveryforLife and #SlaveryForever. The post has since been deleted. In a statement, the school district called the assignment “unacceptable.”
