Episode Details

In Part 1, we discussed the disturbing “N****r Bucks” incident and its impact on Black students. Now, in Part 2, we’re following up on the school’s response—was real accountability taken, or just empty gestures?

But that wasn’t the only issue. A Living History Day lesson aimed at teaching about the pioneer era failed to consider the harm it could cause—sending students home with cloth dolls and ropes shaped like nooses, all without context. When history lessons lack critical thought and cultural awareness, they don’t educate—they traumatize.

So, what are schools getting wrong, and how do we push for real change? Let’s talk about it.
