Interesting - but did any of this change the course of British history ?
If this article said “Ten white history events that should be taught to every pupil” people would loose it!!!! I didn’t realize The Guardian is ran by a bunch of racists!
Why?
Jesus wept, get over it. Theres barely a race alive today that hasn’t been oppressed at some stage, grow a set and move on like everybody else.
Unsurprisingly this attracted negative comments & the same comments presume what the article is about without reading it...wonder why? 🤔
No. What SHOULD be taught is that Africans, Asians and Middle Eastern people had empires and dynasties, and committed slavery, atrocities and genocides throughout the entire course of recorded history. Not just White people. Then we might finally see race relations improve.
And history on this.
I'm not going to read this but I'm guessing they are all black oppression events rather than celebrating black achievements.
