6. This is a sad observation. Decades ago, when my right-wing relative was teaching

in a Catholic school, she expressed surprise that black children came to school without any understanding about their history. "We have to teach them about their history."

I just sat in silence, thinking about the incredible observation that she had stumbled onto. I know she didn't mean it in a good way. I know she was expressing surprise, like in, why doesn't the black community do a better job of raising their own children and give them a sense about their own roots.

And now, here we are, decades later, with Governor Youngkin making sure that black students, and especially the white ones, have a difficult time about understanding what racist white people did in the past, and the not so long past.

It is just so blatant, it shocks.
