Celebrate with me. Illinois passed a bill that requires teaching Native American history in school. In a world full of Florida’s — be like Illinois. Agree?
@LakotaMan1 Our school library in NM ... librarian just added this section...
@LakotaMan1 Because of the fascist political movement we are experiencing firsthand in our country I know this is a positive move by the Illinois government, but it seriously galls me that legislation has to be passed to teach American history. Native American history IS American history.
@LakotaMan1 @seahorsebend I agree to teach Native American history. 👍🏼🙏🏼 This stuff saying … “be like Illinois not like Florida” > is just divisive talk fanning flames. Wish u wouldn’t do that. There’s too much of that already. Agree?✌🏼
@LakotaMan1 I was not aware it had been removed from the teaching of American history?
@LakotaMan1 In Florida, grades 2,4,5,8 and 9-12 all have defined standards for Native American history, including impacts on tribes, wars, resettlement and ongoing concerns. Why do you need to pass a law for something that’s already being done? fldoe.org/core/fileparse…
@LakotaMan1 As long as it’s accurate history. Real history. Not this CRT shit!
@LakotaMan1 Agree, be like the South side of Chicago!
