State Rep. LaShawn K. Ford said current history teachings overlook the contributions of women and minorities.

Leaders in education, politics and other areas gathered in suburban Evanston Sunday to ask that the Illinois State Board of Education change the history curriculum at schools statewide, and temporarily halt instruction until an alternative is decided upon.

At a news conference, State Rep. LaShawn K. Ford said current history teachings lead to a racist society and overlook the contributions of women and minorities.

Before the event Sunday, Rep. Ford's office distributed a news release "Rep. Ford Today in Evanston to Call for the Abolishment of History Classes in Illinois Schools," in which Ford asked the ISBOE and school districts to immediately remove history curriculum and books that 'unfairly communicate' history "until a suitable alternative is developed."

Calls for Censorship

Who gets to decide which history books are unfair?

And what about statues?

He was black. A black musician from America was in Berlin when war broke out in 1939. He could not join the German Army as he was an American citizen. He joined the Waffen SS and became a corporal. He worked with a German SS captain as a spy in Africa. His cover story was that he was an American Jazz musician. They did nit try him as a war criminal. I think there were about 150 Blacks (mostly Africans) in the SS.

The Jews owned all the mines in Africa.

Diamond and gold mines? I can see that.

But I knew a girl whose Uncle owned a Cocoa farm in Ghana. When he died, she inherited the Cocoa farm. She sent me a picture of the little pickaninnies lined up with Cocoa pods in front of them. ;)
