    That’s incredible. Maybe Minnesota is just that different? My son still learned about the civil rights movement and civil disobedience in 2nd grade. Specifically they mentioned MLK Jrs marches and sit-ins, and how even something as small as Rosa Parks sitting where she wasn’t allowed to was an act of civil disobedience.

      I wonder if Id remember the cover of the text books if I saw them. Anyway, sorry your kids arent getting the education I received but to be honest, it wasn’t that great. At least for me but there are another of other personal factors that attribute to that.

        ? No, I’m saying they are getting the education I received. It’s not exactly a topic you dump on kids in second grade in its full reality. You introduce the pieces over time. Edit: I should say this is Minnesota.
