H.B. 3979 and Gov. Abbott’s banning of the use of “critical
race theory” in the curriculum of public school, colleges, and
universities is highly controversial.\u00a0 \u00a0Given that much of the Texas past has seen the
blight of racism in many forms in our government, education, housing, and other
aspects of life in Texas from before its founding as a state.\u00a0 It’s ironic
that the President and Congress have made “Juneteenth” a national
holiday given that Juneteenth marks the day that, some two years after the end
of the Civil War and the emancipation of slaves in the southern states,
African-Americans still were treated in much of Texas as slaves.\u00a0 They\u2019d not been freed from their enslavement
by the government in Texas. Two years after the end of the Civil War, informed
the black citizens of Texas that they were free and actually had been for two
years but not given the rights until the U.S. Army came to Texas, learned that
the former slaves had not been informed of their emancipation, and forced Texas
officials to treat the former slaves as full citizens of the United States and
the State of Texas.\u00a0 And many Whites in Texas continued to deny the full
fruits of freedom to \u00a0African-Americans
in many, ways, by law and by custom. That is the controversy and that is how
you should approach your research.\u00a0 There are numerous articles about this
in Texas and national newspapers and magazines.\u00a0 I\u2019ve provided you with
articles that detail the bill, the actions of the Governor, and the overall
controversy.\u00a0 Also, discuss the origins of the “critical race
theory” in the academic in the U.S. recently (and why Republicans in the
South particularly, oppose its teaching).\u00a0 Why is there such vehement
opposition? Is it racism?\u00a0 Is it to appeal to white supremacists
voters?\u00a0 Address questions such questions and others that are addressed in
these articles. <\/p>\n
