    two things,

    foremost
    If I heard my kids singing that song I would tell them to knock it off, and further explain the reason it was wrong, if needed.

    Secondly, and to the point

    The teacher told the kids to create a project related to reconstruction, following the civil war.
    Which the KKK was certainly part of, and prominently.
    Basically she got what she asked for. Maybe a conversation should have ensued.

    burying these thoughts, forcing the kids to hide behind them solves nothing

    Don't reconstruct the past, perhaps. They were even nastier racist buggers than the present lot!

    they certainly were a lot nastier lot just after the civil war,

    so these kids had these thoughts in their heads before the project, you do realize that, no?

    bury it, or think you are burying it if you'd like, that's the liberal way

    Sounds like great advice, maybe you should try it! It's not too surprising to find you once again on a thread about racism. On our prior forum you spent your time whoring after various customers and mistaking sock accounts like you are doing here. Whatever happened to all that charity work you bragged about doing? Panera wised up and so did the rescues?

The district released a letter on Monday stating that it was investigating the incident and that although the song was part of an assignment, "the impact was harmful."

    "Administration from Dover High School and the District are working with students and the school community to respond immediately and effectively to this racial insensitivity. I think the most important part is that we are upset and concerned about what happened in that classroom," Harbron said.

    Who would have thought racism being rampant in liberal land and not those gun toting bible thumping Southerners. Guess those evil Confederate monuments aren't as racist as you lefties claim.

    Terrorism deaths down in 2017, but far-right terrorism rising, report says




    Deaths from terrorism declined in 2017 for the third straight year, but far-right extremism was on the rise, according to a new report released Wednesday.

    The 2018 Global Terrorism Index found that deaths resulting from terrorism decreased 27% worldwide last year. Ninety-six of the 163 countries tracked by the index saw an improvement; 46 had declines. Sixty-seven countries had at least one death from terrorism in 2017 -- a drop from 2016's record high rate of 79 countries, according to the report.

    The report was produced by the Institute for Economics & Peace, a nonpartisan think tank that develops metrics to study peace and its economic impact. It defines terrorism as "the threatened or actual use of illegal force and violence by a non-state actor to attain a political, economic, religious, or social goal through fear, coercion, or intimidation" and pulls its data from the National Consortium for the Study of Terrorism and Responses to Terrorism.

    There was a sharp decrease (52%) in deaths from terrorist attacks attributed to ISIS. Syria and Iraq -- where ISIS continues lose territory -- saw the most dramatic declines in numbers of deaths due to terrorism. Iraq saw 5,000 fewer deaths and Syria saw 1,000 fewer.

    Very creative and historically accurate. They were obviously mocking the democrat party that founded the terrorist group. Good for them.

    People who look at history through the lens of today’s norms are shallow thinkers and devoid of rational thought.

    It is amazing how these things happen in BLUE States

    If you are asked to imitate the racist past, particularly the KKK, surely you imitate contemporary Republicans? I think most of the posts here seem to forget the context: the students are being asked to reconstruct a period when free-market racists had just beaten slave-market racists in a war. You expect them to sing the Internationale?
