America’s Schools Make Racism Educational!

Maybe this is why American teens are so full of hate:

A parent, Clifford Branan, said his son’s teacher assigned the homework Friday, as a supplement to “Sounder,” a book his class is reading. The book is commonly used in classrooms nationwide to illustrate racial bigotry and sharecropping hardships through the eyes of a young black boy.

Branan said he could not believe the puzzle with words like cabin, smokehouse and lantern also included the N-word along with its clue, “17 across: An insulting way to label a black person.”

He said the word crosses the line between history and hate. “It’s not something you want to teach,” Branan said.

And people are worried about a teacher who may or may not have appeared in gay porn? Okay…
