Arizona legislature bans ethnic-studies programs - Yahoo! News →
Haven’t said much about the Arizone shenanigans. They’re plenty awful. Now this…
One of my favorite college courses was “How to Start a Revolution 101.” Come on.
What the what?! This is absurd! I guess AZ didn’t need those tourism dollars after all!
WHAT is going on in that damn state?
Listen, I know I say a lot of things about a lot of things, but…
This is absolutely absurd. First, encourage racial profiling, then keep children ignorant of a major part of their own cultural history and memory, which includes things like racial profiling. This legislation keeps children from becoming aware of structural racism while exemplifying the very kind of structural racism that allows it to exist. How meta.
I wasn’t going to explicitly join the hating on AZ, but this is just outrageous (I’ve been silently indignant). Too much is too much.
Remember, though. As fucked up as Arizona’s state government is being, this shit happens everywhere.
