The thing with this anti-woke movement in schools is that they are attempting to craft a fantasy past in which slavery wasn't that bad and heroic white people saved the day, Indians weren't slaughtered and driven off land en masse, and historical housing/lending/job discrimination isn't even considered. *Because they don't want white students to feel bad*. It's insane, and antithetical to learning. The past informs the present, but again, the right wing also lives in a contemporary fantasy land where racism doesn't exist, Trump won the 2020 election, and drag queens are eating children.
