It also states that social studies and civics teachers may not be compelled to discuss current events or widely debated and currently controversial issues of public policy or social affairs as part of a course.

Just yesterday I was reading an article about the debate of teaching Japanese atrocities in WW2 in Japanese schools. Apparently many Japanese people are not taught very much about those atrocities (focusing more on ancient history), and kind of lack the context necessary to understand international tensions stemming from it.
And of course there are people pushing to not mention them at all in textbooks. Kind of similar here. --- <insert sig here> ... Copied to Clipboard!

South Korea has also protested the Mimizuka - a monument filled with 38,000 noses of Koreans stolen as war trophies in the 16th century - that the Japanese government either A. doesn't even know about the contents of, or B. believes it should be venerated to recognize the conflict of their ancestors. They have a pretty fucked way of recognizing history that seems to intersect with arbitrary codes of honor. --- ...I think I'm done here... ... Copied to Clipboard!

Why does everything need to go to dumb extremes? Like we've certainly seen a few dumb fringe cases like trying to get small children who can barely read to understand the race relations, but this measure is otherwise stupid.

I guess they can't teach Texas history since the independent Texas Republic was founded on the refusal to grant equal citizenship rights to blacks, native Americans and some Mexicans. Oh and they wanted a "peculiar institution" called slavery too.
