Learning the actual history of our country, and that history doesn't have a date where it stops but continues to play a role in our lives, can influence students in many positive ways. It's been shown repeatedly that a more diverse workforce returns better results, so if workers are more ready and able to both hire and work with a diverse group, that is a net benefit.

You can have a more diverse workforce without requiring students to sit in a classroom about it all day long.

With white people about to become a minority in this country, you had better be hoping and praying like hell that minorities don't learn this lesson

Why should I be afraid? I respect everyone. To tie me with people's behavior from a time before I was born is outrageous. Also, I'm half puerto rican FYI.
