and then the yutes will be doomed to repeat it

From the great Roger Stone book Stone's Rules:

Stone's Rule: Past is f-ing prologue. Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it.

"Hey who was that guy who started that war? Hold on, I'll just google it."

-this moment brought to you by the Mississippi Dept. of Education

Get Shad on this ASAP

So now it's just old white men who buy history books?

Mean old Christopher Columbus is to blame somehow, I just know it.

F*ck Christopher Columbus and the ship he sailed over in.

With the youth of today being total imbeciles when it comes to the United States history, I guess Mississippi is just going to add to it. It boggles my mind on the ignorance of our education leaders. They have taken away so much in the education system, it is no wonder that we are having the unrest in the country. It is all do to ignorance.

Sad to say, but History is being eroded by the misinformation contained online daily. When all of the answers to all of the questions are controlled by Google, then they can truly change History. And, they will.

It's got to be FAKE News.

They had been teaching them the Howard Zinn communist globohomo kill whitey version of history since 1990 anyways. That's why you have these 30+ year old feminazi soycucks today. All raised on a diet of Nintendo, Ritalin, and Howard Zinn.

Carey Wright should be given a raise if this initiative is passed.

Once again, the Feds dictate.

At this rate they'll be wanting to eliminate Home
Economics. Oh, they don't even know what that is? My bad.

He who controls the history can steer the future...

Or in the historic words of Hillary Clinton: “Does it matter?”

3:35, Shakespeare just said to shoot you before the lawyers. 😁 Are these exit tests in place to make sure teachers are not just "passing" these students just to get rid of them?

Histiry Schmistory. They need to teach them children how to roll a joint. I understand most kids buy them pre-rolled now. Ought to be a graduation requirement.

I love the statement at the end about taking the federally mandated exams, but not having to pass them in order to graduate.

What a great idea ! Administer a test that has no bearing on your ability.

Can you say "Dumb it down" ?

Yes, this is what the "public" in public education means.

Why don't we just give all kids a birth cert, a driver's license, lifetime income, lifetime med care, a college degree and a truckload of participation trophies at birth and just call it done. Then we can move all the money and management talent at Mississippi schools and assign it and them to road repair. All the teachers can just retire and let the vast pool of money sitting idle at PERS take care of them for the rest of their lives. How to pay for this, you might ask. No problem. Just send the bills to Bernie, Fauxchahontas and AOC and they'll see to it the bills are all paid in full...they have all the answers!

Understand the plan is to eliminate the history test, but to maintain the biology test.

Whether or not there are too many tests can be debated, but the priority of eliminating history but maintaining biology should cause one to say "whhhhaat?"

Did any of you mouth breathers actually read the release (or can you even read)? US History still has to be taken to graduate so that's not changing. The test is currently required for graduation but not required by any law. This is a recommendation from two committees to MDE and not their doing. Y'all the same ones on here howling the there is too much testing. It's almost like y'all just bitch for sport without any thought. Get a life.

Public education is no longer about educating kids, it is about indoctrinating them with leftist philosophy. History repeats itself.

Y'all the same ones on here howling the there is too much testing.

How do you know?

This is the right thing to do, because we all know our biggest problem is that our children are just TOO educated these days! We need to do away with more of that book learnin' and stuff. Why, when they're "studying," they're losing good "screen time."

Yep, the best thing for them / this country is LESS education.

Instead of a high school diploma, can we just each a kid a participation trophy and move them on to be society’s problem?

8:04, you were just elected as head of the Dim-O-Krat party without knowing it!!!!
