I agree w most of what you said. But try to say it in an intelligent and non aggressive way. Why? Because I’m assuming that you want things to be different or you want to make a difference. No one responds positively when you talk at them or say “if you don’t agree w me you’re a __?__. Fill in the blank. It’s not helpful and makes you look a bit ignorant, which I don’t think you are. As for schools and students…TIL 5/6th grade kids should be learning the foundations of STEM subjects and some history. Then recess to play. 6-9-start to add social studies and more in depth history, plus the usual math, reading, etc. Gym class instead of recess, building specific skills rather than general play. And finally in high school Address social issues, sex as it pertains to teenagers and responsible behavior to avoid unwanted pregnancies, etc. then in college you can explore the oddities of humanity. Well rounded, start broad and go toward details and don’t ding lie to the kids. XX and XY make up humans and nothing changes that fact, including surgeries. Facts and figures, stories of heroic men and women to inspire, discussing cowardice and why so many people are cowardly and anxious or depressed. I think starting kids on big complex things early just adds to their mental Illness. Just a thought. Thanks for writing.
@@JustrtofctrNO. You CANNOT change a marxists mind, you have to go after the next generation, by ruthlessly mocking and belittling their ideas. When gen alpha sees how cringe marxies are, they'll refuse to agree with it.
i went through grade school living in ponca city oklahoma in the 90s, a good mix of white, black and native americans...NOBODY ever said anything racist, not even in a hee-haw joking around on the playground kind of way. the only people who think it were like that are people who didnt grow up in those times / THEY THEMSELVES ARE RACIST, so in their brain they think "well i had all these intrusive racist thoughts so if im a normal average american then everyone else must have had these racist thoughts" no dude, you are just a disgusting racist, you are ABNORMAL not the normal. my oldest son is 13 and him and all his friends roast the shit out of people who think the way vaush does and i wholly encourage them
Exactly, im white and in 3rd grade in the mid 90s my best friend was a black kid and we NEVER talked about race and nobody was treated any different… we were all just friends.
@@SFUPodcast Yep, I'm European and South American (Born in NYC), and I had friends of all races (still do), and no one cared about race. We all played sports, video games, etc., and it wasn't until the last 5-10 years or so that this CRT nonsense has started to ruin education. It's all by design btw! The goal is to keep us divided, and weak as a nation! When Trump wins, this and other leftist nonsense will go bye bye!
My son played with children of color without asking why they looked different than him. He played with action figures without asking me why The Black Falcon had darker skin. Then my son went to school and came home fully aware of differences thanks to his teachers. He even asked me "when is white history month?" My son's accepting pure heart was tainted by our education system.
Same thing their doing with sexual orientation and they think their the ones in the right I do agree race should be taught but later in life elementary kids barely even understand the world around them
Exactly. Kids don't question race. They understand it better than adults do. It exists. So what? It's always the adults or educational system that stir around a bunch of different ideas, good and bad that make some people not only notice it but continuously talk about it or obsess over it.
47 years old and I was taught in public school that slavery existed in the past, taught Lincoln freed the slaves and that the Civil War was fought over it and the North won...We have no slaves today and nobody alive today was ever a slave or slave owner. Why can't we go back to the late 80's and 90's and use those text books? The founding fathers didn't invent slaves, they were born into that practice already established and it was everywhere in the world. What makes America unique isn't that it once had slaves, it is that America is one of the first countries to abolish it.
100% I'm 42 and remember the same, what were seeing today is just gaslighting children to grow up either with extreme guilt or a victimhood complex. I remember those old textbooks, and while they certainly didn't gloss over the mistakes of history, they made it very clear that it was an issue of the distant past without any allusions to ongoing systemic bias. People could read this and learn the truth of American history (the good and the bad) without being politically co-opted into an ally of a much more recent culture war they're to young to possibly understand. Racism had been in decline more and more each year and in the 80s, 90s early 00s it was so marginally slim nobody even thought about it. I mean really, nobody was worrying about this stuff, including my black friends and neighbors in suburbia. The kids growing up in this today only know & recognize the chaos of these last 15 or so years and think this is what America is. These are anti american, marxist ideological philosophies being put into practice to subvert the country from within, death by 1000 cuts, so it can be rebuilt into something else. Alot of it is cloward and piven strategy. But to the kids of today its just social justce. They have no idea how comparatively happy and optimistic our country was just 25 years ago. We've literally become the frog that doesnt know it's boiling in a pot.
Lincoln was a member of the national union party which was the Republican Party back in 1864 so the slaves were freed by Republican president obviously the Democrats want to keep everybody enslaved and on the plantation
Well, that is not exactly correct. Something like 80,000 missing migrant children, probably more, have been brought into this country for that very purpose, often into the sex market. Then there are those that the government created. It's called GOV. HAND OUT. Which goes more and more to undocumented dumocrats. Who will be sadly disappointed when the liberals run out of OPM. 'Cause they shifted into overdrive nearly four years ago. Spending Other Peoples Money as fast as they can. Only drug addicts and undocumented dumocrats get to violate the rules, and the fools keep voting for their enslavement. It 'WILL! BEEEE! Nov 5, but 4 who? FREEDOM? SLAVERY? VOTE TRUMP, VOTE FREEDOM. DAMN IT! VOTE LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE IDEOLOGY OUT. LET FREEDOM RING
And as I female, I'm also sick of "anti -male" ism. I am grateful for the men in my life, and appreciate the differences everyone brings to human kind.
White people named Africa, "AFRICA". If they were true scholars they would call themselves "Alkebulan". "Without white people, the majority of them wouldn't even know they lived on a continent. (There are still people in villages all over the world who have never seen a video of outer space, or under the sea)" "They wouldn't even know they were "a people." Tribal feuding and scarce resources kept them divided. "They would still be trying to invent the wheel." Very little technology gains to be found in modern Africa minus the influence of "outsiders". This statement, while "ABRASIVE AF" is not a JAB at my beautiful dark pigmented cousins.. this is a HISTORICAL FACT. My point is that we all need each other.. For whatever purpose we are here, it is to grow and add to the HUMAN story with the things which we each excel at. Each of us individually is different in massive ways, and skilled differently. Each of our people in history were massively different and skilled differently. Our pigment only divides us in our history... far in the future, surely we overcome the division due to our differences. Clearly we eventually learn that it is of no negative concern... Hence, we can be rid of our focus on pigment today, there is no need to wait. If we can make "theorists" outcasts, we can make people who discuss pigment outcasts as well.
He labeled some random non-political youtuber as conservative, and then said that is unacceptable, to be a conservative lol. He's so radical, he believes people should not even have a choice to conserve anything. It's nuts lol
Yeah typical Vaush or whatever his name is. I find it strange that people who are in favor of Marx have no problem with who Marx was as a person. (not the best fellow let me tell you.) Not to mention the Men who radically tested Marx's unrealistic views on the real world which led to alot of dead people. No one can seem to get it right strangely...(sarcasm) And yet these same people tell you Orange man bad! Mean tweets! While at the same time wishing people to be unalived. We clearly live in a satanic realm. The reversal of everything that you know to be true flipped.
In the early 2000s I was a preschool teacher and we asked the class to point out differences in all the teachers. Race was NEVER brought up and we were all different. Race is taught.
Well not necessarily. Now hear me out I’m a self proclaimed right winger. Buuuut, it is important that we teach self betterment along with respect. But CRT is definitely not doing that.
@@Regalpaladinnah bro you are talking rubbish. Noone should ever be made ashamed of who they are and you should think really hard about the bullshit you are spewing. I find your statement quite disgusting.
In third grade, nobody in our class gave a crap about race, ethnicity, or nationality....we were concerned about getting out for recess, to play kickball, dodgeball, tetherball, basketball, tag, red rover, four-square, arm-wrestling, while the girls played hopscotch, playing on swing-sets, double-dutch jump-roping, and more. There wasn't one boy, or one girl, who was thinking about gender-fluid identity, racial equities, feminine studies, fundamental marxists principles....and I went to grade school, way back in the early 1970's.
@@TheMarissaM: Everyone, at one point in their lives, gets taunted, made fun of, ridiculed, ostracized, bullied, shamed, traumatized, hated on, despised, hurt, and betrayed, by others that are around them, it's in human nature, to act in such regards, hence why, we need GOD'S LOVE, MERCY, and FORGIVENESS.
The same thing for me in the 1990. Wtf changed? 🤔 I really can't point out when it did. I think political correctness is the first time I recognized a huge change in language and ideology...idk
They have to be taught racism....have you ever watched kindergarten kids play together all colors of them? It is GLORIOUS!!! "Do you know how to end Racism? Stop talking about it"!! Morgan Freeman 😊
CRT is NOT made to unite. It is made to divide and flame hate so they get their Marxist revolution. Happy to burn the society down to rule over ashes...
Amen, critical race theory simply tells you that any disparity in outcome or treatment between races is a result of racism. the eyes of a progressive student that studies critical race theory only see race and the color of their skin. They only see disparities between races they will never see improvement or else they will lose their power. For them to admit progress is for them to admit that they are fundamentally wrong in many ways of viewing the world, and this is something they absolutely cannot accept.
I grew up in a very white area. We had literally one black kid in my grade. In 3rd grade, I said to my mom, "Hey mom, can my friend Quincy come over after school? He's the really tall kid." I didn't say, "he's the black kid." In my head, the thing that stuck out about him was his height. Nobody saw race until they were taught race or had someone imprint their views onto you. I'm scared for the future kids if they're being taught to look at each other based on skin tone. It'll only divide us more.
Exactly same thing in my elementary school. My best friend was one of 3 or 4 black kids and we never noticed or discussed race. The world was so different. Now it's all anyone ever sees. We truly were living based on people character and it was better then.
It's truly focused on now to stoke division and hatred of the other. It will lead to a lot of violence and it blows my mind so many people can't see these tactics. Another thing that was different growing up was everyone used to be skeptical of all politicians as well as the federal government. Now half the country worships the state while the other wants less of it. People should realize government remains in power easier when we are all at eachothers throats. Don't let them make you hate. Critical rave theory has nothing to do with history. It may claim its history but i studied this subject a long time before anyone ever even heard of the words. I saw it coming and told everyone but nobody believed me. Its not history it's a critical theory to cause the exact thing it claims it wants to dispel.
Same!! I didn’t notice race until I went to a bigger city high school and I started getting called names by black people. Up until that point, I never noticed or cared. Half my family is mixed and I can say I didn’t notice if that makes sense. It didn’t matter.
Same. Mostly white area, some Hispanic, and very small black population and all we kids knew was our friend was really good at tag or they can swing really high so cool. My own kid wanted to play with a friend after school. Which one? The one who has that really cool soft coat. Ah yes. That friend.
I am from WV. Family has lived there since 1600’s. My grandfather joined the confederacy in 1863 when WV was made because he was afraid of the north invading. He didn’t have slaves. Poor mountain farmer.
Third Grade me: _"I want a gameboy"_ _"How high can I punt this ball"_ _"Are we getting stuffed crust cheese pizza at lunch"_ _"If I had Exodia, I would be the greatest duelist ever"_ _"I like Stephanie and Eliza"_ _"Stephanie and Eliza don't like me..."_
Bro you missed the most important things. “How loud can I get this whistle nerf football” “Why am I the only kid without moonshoes?” “How am I gonna explain the rip in my new Lee Pipes?”
I grew up in a very racially diverse area. Military town. Didn't know about racism until I was told about it by an adult. Literally didn't exist in my mind until high-school.
Me too. I was born in 1950. Navy brat. Never thought about racism until the civil rights movement. And supported it, because I grew up without racism, and wished that for the rest of my country.
Agree. I had no idea about racial differences until an adult man screamed at me for playing with his nephew. I told him to “stop monkeying around” because he was literally making monkey sounds and climbing all over everything. At 7 I had NO IDEA that was a racial slur. This adult man made me afraid to hang out with my friend because of him attacking me. I grew up in a military town that was ethnically diverse and was raised that everyone bleeds the same and we all have our own problems that we have to go to. Mind you I am a light skinned Mexican. Been told multiple times I am not Mexican because I’m “too white” when majority of people don’t know that there are all shades of color in the Mexican culture. Hell in the height of blm I was told by a man that I was “white washed” because I am so light. Even though I can trace my heritage back to when my great grandparents came from Guadalajara. My grandfather was the first and only American citizen in the family out of his siblings.
I used to work at an elementary school in a very diverse neighborhood. Those kids didn't care about race until a parent or teacher told them they should, and it was heartbreaking to see these kids suddenly change.
Kids can be really cruel too. So when they learn about something new, they sometimes use it to bully others, whether they understand what they're doing is wrong or not.
Hey Jojo! Just a heads up, Vaush has admitted to lying to make his arguments sound better in the moment in order to win conversations. Be careful when listening to him and don't believe he is talking in good faith. I used to watch him a lot.
That’s what most of them do… anything for there ideology to gain power which hopefully doesn’t happen because many people will die since it’s been shown to us throughout history
I wish you would Try to See That I mean no Harm. But Everyone is being tricked. Just know that they lie to Everyone, and censor their opponents. Why would the "truth" need to Silence a lie? Because they're the liars.
I went to school with Mikasuki Indians, cuban refugees, and white children. I was friends with all of them and didn’t think anything about the differences.
When my son was in 3rd grade, it was that first fall when covid had hit. They had virtual until March so I got to see firsthand what they were teaching. During black history month, his teacher had them read books reflecting the civil rights movement. This is GREAT HOWEVER, cognitive wise, he was not old enough to understand. The illustrations reflected "whites only" and "no dogs or Jews." I tried explaining what a "Jew" was and segregation. So fast forward to March... After swimming, we were helping a black grandmother with her grand daughter leaving to the car. As soon as we got in the car, my son actually chanted "whites only!" After giving him the mom stink eye, he says "blacks and whites only?" Another stink eye.. "Everyone only?" I replied "yes!" His best friend was Korean, and he had friends who were black and Indian. Not once ever asked a question about their race. IMO... The teachers "good intentions" backfired. 🤦♀️
My first friend in life was a black kid. He lived next door to us, in southern North Carolina. Never once did I see him as anything other than my friend, and my parents never brought up his skin color to me.
If the professor is going to say we need to teach ALL of history…then that means teaching the negative things black Americans and native Americans did as well. Not just the negative things by white people.
Ha, ha, ha... do you mean Native Indian Americans trying to defend their homelands from the white invader?. Why would anything African Americans have done in an attempt to gain their civil rights or just to simply exist in white America in any way be compared to 400 years of slavery and ongoing racial biases?
I hate the point you are making but I hear what you are saying. And if that is the case, why not share all the terrible shit Native Americans are responsible for? Why not just air out everyone's dirty laundry and make everyone hate everyone else? Because that would just suck. When I was learning American History in school, it seemed to be about our victories, such as ending slavery, and winning our freedom. Looking back, it was probably written that way to spare the ancestors of guilty parties in order to give them a chance at being better than their ancestors without suffering discrimination. Look at Germany, Japan, and Italy: Do we judge their children as terrible people for what their grandparents did? It might be stated in the schoolyard, they are still treated as equals in the classroom.

I am so sick of the "unconscious" racism or any other ideas...if it's unconscious then you are not aware and how would you know, these people just want to lay blame
I thank God I was allowed to be an average eight-year-old enjoying both school and playing outside after school in Lennox, California. We played out until dinner and then we went back out until dark. Blessed in the fifties.
the most any kid thinks about skin color is 'wow that other kid has different colored skin...why?' and as long as the answer is 'because some people have different colored skin, just like hair and eyes' then that kid will never see it as an issue. racism must be learned, it is not implicit.
Exactly. I have a half brother who is black. That's pretty close the conversation I had with my mom when I was SUPER young. Like around 4 years old. I just thought it must be kinda nifty being a different color.
I'm mixed race, my dad is black, my mom white. I'm obviously mixed race, as is my sister(though she has grey/blue eyes withy a dark complexion). My brother however is white af, blonde hair, blue eyes, but clearly black facial features and if he walks into the sun he tans at the same rate as any other poc 😂 We never really questioned skin color in our family, even as kids we could figure out that if you mix two races together you're gonna end up somewhere halfway.
Saying racism is "learned" doesn't carry the correct connotation. "Learning" suggests "teaching." But most racism that exists isn't taught. It's grown through observation. Our brains are built to notice patterns. When people watch the news and see violent perps are mostly black, their subconscious notices. When listen to the radio and hear violent thug music is mostly by blacks, their subconscious notices. And then they form attitudes that they may not be consciously aware of. The way pattern recognition goes away is through experiences that contradict the pattern. Reading Thomas Sowell does more to dispel the belief that blacks are less intelligent than any amount of telling people that blacks are intelligent. The system is NOT racist. No one is teaching people to be racist. But the racism that does exist is because of real patterns that exist in society, and people have insufficient experiences that invalidate those patterns.
I grew up in the 90's and we were, for the most part, "Color-Blind". We were aware of the difference in skin colors, but only consider Black/White/Brown as descriptions, not differences. Not so much for the Generation before or after us though, both of which are Hyper Focused on race for one reason or another. 80's kids tend to be the "Micro-Agressors" while 2000's kids experienced the "Re-Birth of the Divide" and 90's kids are just left wondering what is going on and why saying something "Color-Blind" is now considered racist.
Yep, I was in elementary from around 1991-1997, and there was zero racist that I saw, and the color of my classmates' skin never crossed my mind. And we did have some black kids there.
The 2000s Static Shock cartoon is a perfect example of this. Static was black but it wasn't his entire personality. It flavored his style, yes, but the most defining part of his character was not *what* he was born as but was *who* he *chose* to be, and he chose to be a hero.
People do not realize that slavery was common for thousands of years. People of all races have been inslaved though out history. MOST of the people owned slaves were not white. Only a very small % of Americans owned slaves and there were black slave owners in America. It was western civilization that first ended slavery and worked to end it through out the world Slavery legally continued in Arabian countries and Africa until the 1980s. Slavery still continues in those 16:53 countries today though on a smaller scale. We have slavery on our southern boarder today where hundreds of thousands of wemon and child are sold as sex slaves, organ traficking and work slaves. China inslaves young children to work in their factories. There are more people in slavery today then was in the entire Transatlantic slave trade. But we just shut our eye's to it. We will never stop any racism using a racist idea like critical race theory. The socialis Marxist in America are doing what socialist have done forever. They know if they can devide people by race they can creat division and hate and people devided can be controlled.
Vaush has stated on video on multiple occasions he is willing to OUTRIGHT LIE to further his political view in debates. *Why would they debate someone who has no plans of having an honest debate?* PS He is a Pdfile apologist also
Hahah yeah the fact that you can recover your reputation after getting caught mid stream with lolicon and pony smut on your computer and openly defend pdf files is purely leftist. That would NEVER happen to someone on the right.
The way he frames his questions and statements automatically makes my neck hair raise, big massive ick. Unsure whether it's because I've seen some of his content or whether I'm subconsciously picking up he's disingenuous / bad faith
He reminds me of the gay psychologist in that woke AF hospital show. I can't remember what it was called but it was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. I saw a clip of it where the character that looks like this guy literally told a Hispanic woman that her child's tumor came from..... racism. They really fucking wrote that shit.
yup and most peoples child hoods before CRT was being pushed didnt include thinking any different about someone based only on their skin color they would think different if the person was being real nasty as far as their attitude but thats it race was never on peoples minds once slavery was abolished and before crt was pushed onto the kids
i was born in 1960, my best friend in 2nd grade was black (I am not) and I thought her darker skin was envious, I wasnt thinking about 'racism' just that she was gorgeous. Children do not hyper focus on these things and we shouldnt teach them to see differences as a concern, just a beauty.
As a man who grew up and lives in the south, we get A LOT of flack for racism but everywhere I look I see everyone getting along, working together, eating together, starting families together, and race is never really problem
I imagrated at around grade three. The first black person I met, i remember thinking "aw man. His sandwich is rotten. The bread is yellow. I'm gonna offer him some of mine" .. he then offered me his back. So reluctantly I ate it, and it turned out to be waaaay better than mine. It was a jamaican beef patty. That's the difference I noticed. It was more the food, than anything to do with race. Let children have those innocent experiences without tainting it with all this division
@E_Legal_Alien what was the name of their little mascot? I vaguely remember it being like an elderly-looking kitten that had the more cartoonish voice. He annoyed me.
You remind of my black friend Marquis. We grew up in rural NH and never once talked about or paid attention to our differences. We had FUN. Being born in ‘88 it’s been crazy to see these changes over the decades. I subbed, great content my man!!
Up until 6th grade I was constantly playing basketball in a Karl Malone jersey and I'm white. I didn't even have the slightest care about the color of each other's skin.
I was about 3rd grade when I noticed that the only dark skinned people I saw had curly hair. (This was around 1958, in Alameda, California, on the Naval base. I remember my dad rolling up the car window really fast. But I was just making an observation and was curious because I hadn’t noticed until then!) At that time, I had only seen a few. One was the lady who helped my mom with laundry, and I adored her. I didn’t even consider her to be above or below our white babysitter, who was also hired by my mom to help her. These women taught me that work is honorable and that doing things beyond the job description is normal. These two women are as responsible for a lifetime of work ethic as my parents!
I remember (very late 90's) this girl at PE told me she wished she was black and was really sad about it. That was the only time I witnessed something like that with little kids. I had no idea her reasoning, maybe she liked a boy, maybe she liked R&B music videos.
My best friend growing up is black and I used to never think about it at all. Now, simply saying this makes me racist because if you reference having a black friend you're using them as a prop somehow. Things got so twisted.
3rd grade for me was Phoenix, AZ in 2008. I'm a white guy. Was about 50% Hispanic, 35% White and 15% Black and others. We were not talking about race. We were all friends with each other. Our parents paid no mind when we'd visit each other's houses. We all liked the same things, played soccer during recess, and marbles. Talked about Diary of a wimpy kid and tech deck skateboards. Was a great time to be a kid.
The first time I recall even thinking about another person's skin color, I was in 5th grade. We were visiting family in Florida. My sisters and I went to walk with one of our cousins. A young black girl about my own age waved and said "hi" as we walked past her house. I waved and said "hi" back, like normal for me. My cousin had a fit, because "You shouldn't talk to people like her." I actually had to ask "What people?" Blacks. I actually had to glance back and look again at the girl, because her skin color hadn't even registered with me. My parents raised us with MLK's philosophy of judging people based on their character. I STILL live by that. Anyway, before that incident in 5th grade, I don't remember giving a thought to anyone's skin color. I was raised around people of various skin colors and nationalities.
In third grade one of my best friends was samoan and one was middle eastern. I didnt know they were a different race until i was in 6th grade. The color of their skin never even crossed my mind because our culture was the same. We just saw each other as fellow americans
I am 53, I grew up in a town with less than 10K people in Wyoming, and I never thought about the color of a person's skin. I graduated in Albuquerque, NM. and served in the Military from 1989 -2000. Up until the election of Obama as president I don't remember the discussion of color being as prevalent as it is now. I served under the leadership of Black leaders, and never thought anything about it, I just learned a whole lot from them and used that to help advance our division.
It all started with Obama! I remember the first speech I heard from him after he was elected and I was kind of shocked like what is he talking about!?!? I noticed it right away and it's never stopped since!!
Im a new zealander, the first time i realised people were different despite having met many folks of many different ethnicities, i was 10 years old and staying at a marae (indigenous meeting house for tribes) with my mum for her work. I made friends with an indigenous girl and she asked what words i knew in maori (her language) and i sang her a song i knew she joined in, i said the words i knew followed by "thats all i know, im not maori though".... She said " i know" and i wondered how she knew ...then it hit me that i looked different... I hadnt even thought about it from that perspective up until she told me she knew i wasnt the same...despite being the only white kid there lol. I was raised to treat people how i want to be treated.. no matter who they were. We didnt talk about race or religion or disability (my mum worked with kids with disabilities and i was raised around kids with a whole range of abilities and from different ethnic groups...it wasnt talked about..if someone couldnt see or couldnt walk it was just matter of fact and you treated them like you would treat anyone else, and if they needed help, you helped just like you would anyone else. No hyperfocus = seeing people for who they are not what they are at first glance
When I was in third grade, the only question I had about a person with darker skin than me was why and turns out why didn’t matter it just was. So for me, that’s just who they were all that mattered was were they a good person or were they not a good person?
I had a black friend in 3rd grade but we never talked about the color of our skin. However, when a teacher dropped the n bomb in 5th grade, our whole class stood up for him and got her fired…
When I was in school no one worried about anyone’s skin color. Fast forward to 2021 my son is biracial and we changed his school because his classmates bullied him for “not being black enough”….
Every continent on earth had slavery, countless millions around the globe. Korea had the longest unbroken chain of slavery in history, thousands of years if I remember right. It was white men among others who were not drafted, they signed up to fight and die because slavery was just wrong.
I remember when i was three years old i went to the preschool at the church my mom worked at. There was a black teacher that I was scared to talk to or give a high five to because she looked different than me and my 3 y/o brain thought she was dirty. My little brain just didn’t understand and was scared of someone different than me. My mom sat me down and told me that she was just like me, but her skin was just darker than mine. I went up to say hi to her and I was really scared, but she was so incredibly nice and i gave her a high five, and after that race meant nothing to me. I didn’t need to be taught Critical Race theory. My 3 year old brain just needed to be taught that people look all kinds of different ways but they are still just like me. Of course small small children have implicit bias bc they don’t understand anything that’s different than them. But as they get into elementary school those things aren’t relevant anymore.
When I was in 3rd grade the last thing on my mind was race.. All we wanted to do as young boys was win at the game we were playing... Basketball baseball etc. Im 31 now. And although we were a mixed bag. Skin color never crossed my mind. What an insane world today.
I never had a thought about skin color as a kid, some of my favorite classmates and playmates were black, hispanic and other 1st generation immigrants. We all got along and were very good friends in school. Some moved away after a few years, but new ones came and we also got along perfectly. We still run into each other many years later as middle aged adults. So this professor is nutz.
It's interesting that as a black kid John Cena was your favourite, and as a white kid The Rock was my favourite. Highlights how as kids we are all colour blind, and caring about race is something that is taught to us later. Great video, keep it up man!
I remember as young child, like 3 or 4, seeing a black person and noticing the differences in skin color and hair texture. I wasn't afraid, but intrigued because it was so different from my family. I noticed differences in other ethnicities as well. I also noticed differences in white people from what makes us look so different. I was always taught that we may look different, but we are all brothers and sisters through our Heavenly Father. As an adult I've seen black children look at white people uncomfortably and almost fearfull, and that's okay because it's natural to fear, at that age, something different. I remember watching the Roots series with my family and crying about how slaves were treated and beaten. I remember how we were taught in school, in history classes, of the atrocities that happened in the past and how we overcame. I feel like our country is going backwards with this race theory. We need a melting pot, not segregation. I had my son go to a predominantly black middle school and was called many racist names, pissed on by a bunch of boys in the bathroom, and another time was punched in the face after walking into a bathroom. He walked in, a kid asked him his name, he told him his name and the the boy decked him and left. Anyway, he didn't understand why he was treated so badly when he treated people kindly. Racism can be in every ethnicity, color, etc. We know that he was treated badly by bad individuals, not a whole race.
I was born in 1983, started junior school in 87 and in my first week befriended a boy called Neil. Every day when I was picked up by my parents, they asked me about my day and I kept talking about playing with Neil. Hearing everyday about Neil, mum and dad asked me what he looked like so they could see who this lovely friend was. I described his hair, his eye colour, this don’t narrow it down for them. I then told him he had pink palms which surely would’ve narrowed it down for them? They finally met Neil and I was describing a brown Indian boy. At no point did I mention his skin colour because I didn’t see it!! This is proof that children are colourblind until the difference is pointed out to them. We still keep in loose Facebook touch with each other.
I grew up with lots of different types of children. I went to school in NYCity. I only wanted to play or watch TV. White, black, brown, yellow meant nothing to me. This was in the 60’s and 70’s.
Came across this video through the algo, just wanted to say it's refreshing to hear your ideas on whats being talked about in this video. usually the person chimes in and repeats something or says something stupid but your commentary is spot on. You are an intelligent guy, you should look into Law School where that mind can do some good for others! Make part 2
In third grade, the most I thought about race was how I was envious of one of my black classmate's hair, she had two braided pigtails with see through hot pink beads on them. I thought the beads were so cool, so I did a few little braids and put beads on the end. Granted they were cheap plastic pony beads from a bracelet making kit, with a rubber band tying up the end😂😂
As a toddler, I learned the song 'Jesus Loves the Little Children', and it solidified my understanding that we are all God's children, we're all shades of brown and we are all equal. The song goes as follows. 🎶 Jesus loves the little children, ALL the children of the world. Red, Brown, Yellow, Black or White, they are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world! 🎶
I was in the 3rd grade in the early 70's. We had a very racially mixed class. Nobody ever acknowledged anybody by skin color. We were all just kids. We played, wrestled, chased each other. But not once did race ever show itself as a dividing factor in anything we did.
I was in third grade 8 years ago and race was still never a problem. People make problems out of nothing cause they have nothing important to worry about. If were worrying about racism we should be trying to stop it in countries that are actually racist and not the us where anybody can enter this country
I'm white and a little native american and went to a mixed school. When I was in 3rd grade there was this taller, really cute-faced black girl I was crushing on. Dude I'm in my 40's and still remember her name, LaTangela..
Being racist requires intent. Theres no such thing as secret racism, or to put it another way, there is no one walking around who is racist and just "doesnt realise it" absolutly moronic "theories" that defy all meaning and logic.
When I was in the 4th grade my friend (tryvon black kid) and I were going to my friend Peter's house who live with his Polish immigrant grandmother and when she opened the door and saw me started to smile amd then she saw my friend she gasped slammed the door in our faces and tripped running up the stairs hahahahaha
JoJo I'm an Englishman soon I will no longer be able to have my voice heard to even have a discussion about this or like this. You and other Black Voices I have heard over the last few years gives me hope for America keep up the good work peace and love to you and yours
As a history teacher of 6th graders...if you can't teach kids to write their name, stop breaking pencils, and read something longer than a headline...you have no business teaching anything this politically and racially charged.
"How does that aid them?" is such an insightful question. I really appreciate your opinion on this. I think we get really bogged down on the "truth" of history without asking whether any of this helps our children at all. Thank you for your content as always!
Please do a part two! Thank you! I grew up in a racially diverse neighborhood from 3rd grade through 12th grade. I graduated HS in 1966. Among my friends race was ignored because it wasn’t important! My story is anecdotal, so this not to paint an idealize picture of other people’s experiences, but we are not groups we are individuals with unique life experiences!
When I was in 3rd grade I definitely noticed differences but didn't really care I was friends with everyone. I remember my grandpa made racist jokes and I didn't understand them at all.
I'm an 80's kid... born in '75. Color didn't matter one bit growing up. I had friends of every ethnic background, and we all got along. Of course, we were aware that we looked different than one another, but it didn't matter. Why all of a sudden is it a good thing to MAKE it matter? We could joke with each other, razz one another about what would now be labeled as "hate speech"... and we could laugh at ourselves. People have become so afraid of saying WORDS that it's saturated the essence of who we are as people. No one has a sense of humor, everyone is a victim and white people have to walk on egg shells. Even in high school in the 90's... this division didn't exist.
Before the U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1788, **five states** had taken steps to abolish slavery or had established gradual emancipation laws. These states were: 1. Vermont(1777) - The first to abolish slavery through its state constitution. 2. Pennsylvania (1780) - Passed a gradual emancipation law. 3. Massachusetts (1780) - Interpreted its constitution as abolishing slavery through court rulings, particularly in the Quock Walker case in 1783. 4. New Hampshire (1783) - Like Massachusetts, slavery was effectively abolished through judicial interpretation of the state constitution. 5. Connecticut(1784) - Passed a gradual emancipation law.
There is a big Reddit post and a black kid and white kid saying they are twins cuz they had the same haircut or something because they dont look at their skin color
I spent some of my formative years in a minority Neighborhood in Aurora, CO. My two best friends were mixed Filipino/Puerto Rican, we stayed at each other's houses all the time, they even watched me for 2 weeks at their house while my Parents went out of town, those two were like brothers to me, then I had to move back to Oklahoma so I only saw them one time after that.
I'm 30 now, but when I was in third grade, there was no racism. We were taught what racism was, but I never met anybody who had any issues with skin color. I grew up in Alaska and went to a school where I became friends with a variety of different kinds of Alaska Native kids, a Black German kid named Isaiah and a little black girl named Kamiah, an Egyptian boy named Ephraim, a Puerto Rican boy named Diego, a Japanese girl named Amber, a Chinese boy named Kyle and a LOT of Russians of a variety of skin tones. We did not know racism and everybody made fun of their own ethnitities/culture. I look white-ish, but I am a variety of ethnicities, a mix if you will.
I went to school in the 80's and 90's in south Texas. No one ever talked about race and we all hung out with everyone. White, black, Mexican, and Asians.... all hung out together and it was cool.
I went to catholic school k-12 in the south, graduated early 00’s, we only had I think 7 kids out of about 600 in the school system that were people of color. 3 of whom are still my best friends today. There was no racism or exclusion.
When I was in the third grade I moved to a predominantly black neighborhood, and I can with 100% certainty say that I did not even think about race. I made some of the best friends I ever had based on their character and our similar interests. Race was not even a spark in my brain until I was much older.
In third grade i was more focused on helping my grandma in the fields (my grandpa had just passed away so it couldn't be the three of us) and watching the Packers every week (she was a huge packer fan and so was my teacher. She gave us green and gold treats wherever they won). It gives me hope for the future that a young guy in college is able to look through the bs being pushed by people that just want to divide us, and decide for himself what's objective, what's plausible, and what's complete nonsense
I was excited about space, dinosaurs and books. In third grade I actually loved Shakespearean over the top drama. I loved reading. I’m a nerd, through and through. I also rode my bike as long as the street lights let me, and made tree houses and makeshift bridges over creeks. Stood in said creek with my dog and came home smelling like…creek. But I was born in ‘71.
It’s not that they are teaching Marxism or anything else in college…it’s that they teach these ideas with bias and talk about all the pro arguments as if facts(many time untrue or lies) and never give the good counter arguments….this is the problem. Nothing needs to be ignored talking about…but a professor should give both sides best arguments…and also not make kids have to agree with them for a good grade
I'm like 10 years older than all my cousins and one thing I've noticed when they became teens and first were introduced to words like racism and prejudice is when they started acting more prejudiced. We're black and I'd take care of them and take them to events when they were 11/12 and younger they didn't care if the kids they ended up grouping up to play were black, white, Asian, boy or girl. As teens they first wouldn't group up with bigger kids , then no kids that aren't black or white boys. Next, oh and it them pushing ppl away. Like who is putting this into are youths heads?

K-12 should be reading, writing, and mathematics. No DEI. No LGBTQAI+. Anyone who disagrees with that is a groomer.
and real science
I agree w most of what you said. But try to say it in an intelligent and non aggressive way. Why? Because I’m assuming that you want things to be different or you want to make a difference. No one responds positively when you talk at them or say “if you don’t agree w me you’re a __?__. Fill in the blank. It’s not helpful and makes you look a bit ignorant, which I don’t think you are. As for schools and students…TIL 5/6th grade kids should be learning the foundations of STEM subjects and some history. Then recess to play.
6-9-start to add social studies and more in depth history, plus the usual math, reading, etc. Gym class instead of recess, building specific skills rather than general play. And finally in high school
Address social issues, sex as it pertains to teenagers and responsible behavior to avoid unwanted pregnancies, etc. then in college you can explore the oddities of humanity.
Well rounded, start broad and go toward details and don’t ding lie to the kids. XX and XY make up humans and nothing changes that fact, including surgeries.
Facts and figures, stories of heroic men and women to inspire, discussing cowardice and why so many people are cowardly and anxious or depressed. I think starting kids on big complex things early just adds to their mental
Illness.
Just a thought. Thanks for writing.
@@Justrtofctr lol why do we have to over explain something so simple?
@@JustrtofctrNO. You CANNOT change a marxists mind, you have to go after the next generation, by ruthlessly mocking and belittling their ideas. When gen alpha sees how cringe marxies are, they'll refuse to agree with it.
@@Justrtofctr trying to over complicate something so simple takes a higher form of thinking.
Vaush isn't a college professor...he's just a breadtuber.
And a pdfile
He’s also extremely insufferable. He seems to be on very good behavior in this video I’ve seen many of him being an unhinged lunatic.
You Forgot, He's Also A Fucking Jackass 😂😂
And I'm Probably catching a ban on that one.
I was wondering where the claim he was a professor came from. Not that he doesn't have the same shitty aire about him.
In the 90s I was the only black kid in my class no one was racist.
i went through grade school living in ponca city oklahoma in the 90s, a good mix of white, black and native americans...NOBODY ever said anything racist, not even in a hee-haw joking around on the playground kind of way. the only people who think it were like that are people who didnt grow up in those times / THEY THEMSELVES ARE RACIST, so in their brain they think "well i had all these intrusive racist thoughts so if im a normal average american then everyone else must have had these racist thoughts" no dude, you are just a disgusting racist, you are ABNORMAL not the normal. my oldest son is 13 and him and all his friends roast the shit out of people who think the way vaush does and i wholly encourage them
In the 90's we were aware of racism though, am I right?
But did ya put lotion on in winter and have to explain it? If ya did without bias , we already friends.
Exactly, im white and in 3rd grade in the mid 90s my best friend was a black kid and we NEVER talked about race and nobody was treated any different… we were all just friends.
@@SFUPodcast Yep, I'm European and South American (Born in NYC), and I had friends of all races (still do), and no one cared about race. We all played sports, video games, etc., and it wasn't until the last 5-10 years or so that this CRT nonsense has started to ruin education. It's all by design btw! The goal is to keep us divided, and weak as a nation! When Trump wins, this and other leftist nonsense will go bye bye!
My son played with children of color without asking why they looked different than him. He played with action figures without asking me why The Black Falcon had darker skin. Then my son went to school and came home fully aware of differences thanks to his teachers. He even asked me "when is white history month?" My son's accepting pure heart was tainted by our education system.
Same thing their doing with sexual orientation and they think their the ones in the right I do agree race should be taught but later in life elementary kids barely even understand the world around them
as were most of us😢
Exactly. Kids don't question race. They understand it better than adults do. It exists. So what? It's always the adults or educational system that stir around a bunch of different ideas, good and bad that make some people not only notice it but continuously talk about it or obsess over it.
Colored children=children of color. These progressive phrases crack me up😂
They teach dysfunctional thought patterns to the kids, because they have them.
It's a cycle.
47 years old and I was taught in public school that slavery existed in the past, taught Lincoln freed the slaves and that the Civil War was fought over it and the North won...We have no slaves today and nobody alive today was ever a slave or slave owner. Why can't we go back to the late 80's and 90's and use those text books? The founding fathers didn't invent slaves, they were born into that practice already established and it was everywhere in the world. What makes America unique isn't that it once had slaves, it is that America is one of the first countries to abolish it.
100% I'm 42 and remember the same, what were seeing today is just gaslighting children to grow up either with extreme guilt or a victimhood complex. I remember those old textbooks, and while they certainly didn't gloss over the mistakes of history, they made it very clear that it was an issue of the distant past without any allusions to ongoing systemic bias. People could read this and learn the truth of American history (the good and the bad) without being politically co-opted into an ally of a much more recent culture war they're to young to possibly understand. Racism had been in decline more and more each year and in the 80s, 90s early 00s it was so marginally slim nobody even thought about it. I mean really, nobody was worrying about this stuff, including my black friends and neighbors in suburbia. The kids growing up in this today only know & recognize the chaos of these last 15 or so years and think this is what America is. These are anti american, marxist ideological philosophies being put into practice to subvert the country from within, death by 1000 cuts, so it can be rebuilt into something else. Alot of it is cloward and piven strategy. But to the kids of today its just social justce. They have no idea how comparatively happy and optimistic our country was just 25 years ago. We've literally become the frog that doesnt know it's boiling in a pot.
Lincoln was a member of the national union party which was the Republican Party back in 1864 so the slaves were freed by Republican president obviously the Democrats want to keep everybody enslaved and on the plantation
Exactly!!
MeggaDITTOs!! Amen!!!
Well, that is not exactly correct. Something like 80,000 missing migrant children, probably more, have been brought into this country for that very purpose, often into the sex market. Then there are those that the government created. It's called GOV. HAND OUT. Which goes more and more to undocumented dumocrats. Who will be sadly disappointed when the liberals run out of OPM. 'Cause they shifted into overdrive nearly four years ago. Spending Other Peoples Money as fast as they can. Only drug addicts and undocumented dumocrats get to violate the rules, and the fools keep voting for their enslavement. It 'WILL! BEEEE! Nov 5, but 4 who? FREEDOM? SLAVERY? VOTE TRUMP, VOTE FREEDOM. DAMN IT! VOTE LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE IDEOLOGY OUT. LET FREEDOM RING

White people named Africa, "AFRICA". If they were true scholars they would call themselves "Alkebulan".
"Without white people, the majority of them wouldn't even know they lived on a continent.
(There are still people in villages all over the world who have never seen a video of outer space, or under the sea)"
"They wouldn't even know they were "a people." Tribal feuding and scarce resources kept them divided.
"They would still be trying to invent the wheel." Very little technology gains to be found in modern Africa minus the influence of "outsiders".
This statement, while "ABRASIVE AF" is not a JAB at my beautiful dark pigmented cousins.. this is a HISTORICAL FACT.
My point is that we all need each other..
For whatever purpose we are here, it is to grow and add to the HUMAN story with the things which we each excel at.
Each of us individually is different in massive ways, and skilled differently.
Each of our people in history were massively different and skilled differently.
Our pigment only divides us in our history...
far in the future, surely we overcome the division due to our differences.
Clearly we eventually learn that it is of no negative concern...
Hence, we can be rid of our focus on pigment today, there is no need to wait.
If we can make "theorists" outcasts, we can make people who discuss pigment outcasts as well.
A grown man advocating marxism? He's shown himself to be a joke right out of the gate.
He labeled some random non-political youtuber as conservative, and then said that is unacceptable, to be a conservative lol. He's so radical, he believes people should not even have a choice to conserve anything. It's nuts lol
He is a rich kid so of course he's a super vocal Communist.
Yeah typical Vaush or whatever his name is. I find it strange that people who are in favor of Marx have no problem with who Marx was as a person. (not the best fellow let me tell you.) Not to mention the Men who radically tested Marx's unrealistic views on the real world which led to alot of dead people. No one can seem to get it right strangely...(sarcasm) And yet these same people tell you Orange man bad! Mean tweets! While at the same time wishing people to be unalived. We clearly live in a satanic realm. The reversal of everything that you know to be true flipped.
He also thinks he's a 10/10 and can get women whenever he wants. No one ever told him that dating sim waifus don't count, I guess.
He made himself a joke when he defended child lovers and got exposed as a pdfile
If he thinks the US was a slave state, wait until he hears about Brazil, the Ottoman Empire or Dahomey.
and that slavery is still legal in Saudi Arabia to this day.
But those aren’t “white” countries so he can’t gain power by lying about their past
Itd probably be easier to list the countries that didn't practice slavery up to a certain point.
Or the UAE
Or Africa in 2024
In the early 2000s I was a preschool teacher and we asked the class to point out differences in all the teachers. Race was NEVER brought up and we were all different. Race is taught.
Anything taught that makes a young kid feel bad about themselves, and who they are, is WRONG
Well not necessarily. Now hear me out I’m a self proclaimed right winger. Buuuut, it is important that we teach self betterment along with respect. But CRT is definitely not doing that.
@@Regalpaladinnah bro you are talking rubbish. Noone should ever be made ashamed of who they are and you should think really hard about the bullshit you are spewing. I find your statement quite disgusting.
In third grade, nobody in our class gave a crap about race, ethnicity, or nationality....we were concerned about getting out for recess, to play kickball, dodgeball, tetherball, basketball, tag, red rover, four-square, arm-wrestling, while the girls played hopscotch, playing on swing-sets, double-dutch jump-roping, and more. There wasn't one boy, or one girl, who was thinking about gender-fluid identity, racial equities, feminine studies, fundamental marxists principles....and I went to grade school, way back in the early 1970's.
I was born in the early 80s and it was the sane for me
I was called a dirty Mexican a lot from boys in school from 2007-2010 😂 but then it stopped real quick
@TheMarissaM yup. I was called "the white boy", "white meat", "skinny white boy" and "gringo" and " bolillo". So what?
@@TheMarissaM: Everyone, at one point in their lives, gets taunted, made fun of, ridiculed, ostracized, bullied, shamed, traumatized, hated on, despised, hurt, and betrayed, by others that are around them, it's in human nature, to act in such regards, hence why, we need GOD'S LOVE, MERCY, and FORGIVENESS.

@@stephaniehampton3525 The problem is the fact that some people have found a way to profit from racism.
CRT is NOT made to unite. It is made to divide and flame hate so they get their Marxist revolution. Happy to burn the society down to rule over ashes...
Amen, critical race theory simply tells you that any disparity in outcome or treatment between races is a result of racism. the eyes of a progressive student that studies critical race theory only see race and the color of their skin. They only see disparities between races they will never see improvement or else they will lose their power. For them to admit progress is for them to admit that they are fundamentally wrong in many ways of viewing the world, and this is something they absolutely cannot accept.
It is at home where kids are taught to hate others because of their skin color.
I grew up in a very white area. We had literally one black kid in my grade. In 3rd grade, I said to my mom, "Hey mom, can my friend Quincy come over after school? He's the really tall kid." I didn't say, "he's the black kid." In my head, the thing that stuck out about him was his height. Nobody saw race until they were taught race or had someone imprint their views onto you. I'm scared for the future kids if they're being taught to look at each other based on skin tone. It'll only divide us more.
Exactly same thing in my elementary school. My best friend was one of 3 or 4 black kids and we never noticed or discussed race. The world was so different. Now it's all anyone ever sees. We truly were living based on people character and it was better then.
It's truly focused on now to stoke division and hatred of the other. It will lead to a lot of violence and it blows my mind so many people can't see these tactics. Another thing that was different growing up was everyone used to be skeptical of all politicians as well as the federal government. Now half the country worships the state while the other wants less of it. People should realize government remains in power easier when we are all at eachothers throats. Don't let them make you hate.
Critical rave theory has nothing to do with history. It may claim its history but i studied this subject a long time before anyone ever even heard of the words. I saw it coming and told everyone but nobody believed me. Its not history it's a critical theory to cause the exact thing it claims it wants to dispel.
It makes the race hucksters alot of money
Same!! I didn’t notice race until I went to a bigger city high school and I started getting called names by black people. Up until that point, I never noticed or cared. Half my family is mixed and I can say I didn’t notice if that makes sense. It didn’t matter.
Same. Mostly white area, some Hispanic, and very small black population and all we kids knew was our friend was really good at tag or they can swing really high so cool. My own kid wanted to play with a friend after school. Which one? The one who has that really cool soft coat. Ah yes. That friend.
I am from WV. Family has lived there since 1600’s. My grandfather joined the confederacy in 1863 when WV was made because he was afraid of the north invading. He didn’t have slaves. Poor mountain farmer.

I grew up in a very racially diverse area. Military town. Didn't know about racism until I was told about it by an adult. Literally didn't exist in my mind until high-school.
Having something in common I.e. being an American or being in the military is the type of thing that brings people together.
Me too. I was born in 1950. Navy brat. Never thought about racism until the civil rights movement. And supported it, because I grew up without racism, and wished that for the rest of my country.
Agree. I had no idea about racial differences until an adult man screamed at me for playing with his nephew. I told him to “stop monkeying around” because he was literally making monkey sounds and climbing all over everything. At 7 I had NO IDEA that was a racial slur. This adult man made me afraid to hang out with my friend because of him attacking me. I grew up in a military town that was ethnically diverse and was raised that everyone bleeds the same and we all have our own problems that we have to go to. Mind you I am a light skinned Mexican. Been told multiple times I am not Mexican because I’m “too white” when majority of people don’t know that there are all shades of color in the Mexican culture. Hell in the height of blm I was told by a man that I was “white washed” because I am so light. Even though I can trace my heritage back to when my great grandparents came from Guadalajara. My grandfather was the first and only American citizen in the family out of his siblings.
I used to work at an elementary school in a very diverse neighborhood. Those kids didn't care about race until a parent or teacher told them they should, and it was heartbreaking to see these kids suddenly change.
Kids can be really cruel too. So when they learn about something new, they sometimes use it to bully others, whether they understand what they're doing is wrong or not.
Hey Jojo! Just a heads up, Vaush has admitted to lying to make his arguments sound better in the moment in order to win conversations. Be careful when listening to him and don't believe he is talking in good faith. I used to watch him a lot.
That’s what most of them do… anything for there ideology to gain power which hopefully doesn’t happen because many people will die since it’s been shown to us throughout history

I went to school with Mikasuki Indians, cuban refugees, and white children. I was friends with all of them and didn’t think anything about the differences.
When my son was in 3rd grade, it was that first fall when covid had hit. They had virtual until March so I got to see firsthand what they were teaching. During black history month, his teacher had them read books reflecting the civil rights movement. This is GREAT HOWEVER, cognitive wise, he was not old enough to understand. The illustrations reflected "whites only" and "no dogs or Jews." I tried explaining what a "Jew" was and segregation. So fast forward to March...
After swimming, we were helping a black grandmother with her grand daughter leaving to the car. As soon as we got in the car, my son actually chanted "whites only!" After giving him the mom stink eye, he says "blacks and whites only?" Another stink eye.. "Everyone only?" I replied "yes!"
His best friend was Korean, and he had friends who were black and Indian. Not once ever asked a question about their race.
IMO... The teachers "good intentions" backfired. 🤦♀️
My first friend in life was a black kid. He lived next door to us, in southern North Carolina. Never once did I see him as anything other than my friend, and my parents never brought up his skin color to me.
If the professor is going to say we need to teach ALL of history…then that means teaching the negative things black Americans and native Americans did as well. Not just the negative things by white people.
He's not a professor btw
How did the African population get on those boats?
He’s a pretty unhinged streamer tbh. This is the most sane I’ve ever Seen vaush.
Ha, ha, ha... do you mean Native Indian Americans trying to defend their homelands from the white invader?. Why would anything African Americans have done in an attempt to gain their civil rights or just to simply exist in white America in any way be compared to 400 years of slavery and ongoing racial biases?
I hate the point you are making but I hear what you are saying. And if that is the case, why not share all the terrible shit Native Americans are responsible for? Why not just air out everyone's dirty laundry and make everyone hate everyone else? Because that would just suck.
When I was learning American History in school, it seemed to be about our victories, such as ending slavery, and winning our freedom. Looking back, it was probably written that way to spare the ancestors of guilty parties in order to give them a chance at being better than their ancestors without suffering discrimination. Look at Germany, Japan, and Italy: Do we judge their children as terrible people for what their grandparents did? It might be stated in the schoolyard, they are still treated as equals in the classroom.
This guy needs to read an ACTUAL HISTORY BOOK...He is coming to a HISTORY FIGHT with a PHILOSOPHICAL DEGREE..

Everyone is being tricked.
Just know that they lie to

Why would the "truth" need to
Silence a lie? Because they're the liars.
They are all feelings and no facts
More like wishful thinking if we are honest.
He’s not in philosophy either
I am so sick of the "unconscious" racism or any other ideas...if it's unconscious then you are not aware and how would you know, these people just want to lay blame
I thank God I was allowed to be an average eight-year-old enjoying both school and playing outside after school in Lennox, California. We played out until dinner and then we went back out until dark.
Blessed in the fifties.
the most any kid thinks about skin color is 'wow that other kid has different colored skin...why?'
and as long as the answer is 'because some people have different colored skin, just like hair and eyes'
then that kid will never see it as an issue.
racism must be learned, it is not implicit.
Exactly. I have a half brother who is black. That's pretty close the conversation I had with my mom when I was SUPER young. Like around 4 years old. I just thought it must be kinda nifty being a different color.
I'm mixed race, my dad is black, my mom white.
I'm obviously mixed race, as is my sister(though she has grey/blue eyes withy a dark complexion). My brother however is white af, blonde hair, blue eyes, but clearly black facial features and if he walks into the sun he tans at the same rate as any other poc 😂
We never really questioned skin color in our family, even as kids we could figure out that if you mix two races together you're gonna end up somewhere halfway.
looks like u got the exact same seaseme street education i did!😊
If my son calls someone the N word, does that automatically make me a racist? Because he didn't learn it from me...or anyone white...
Saying racism is "learned" doesn't carry the correct connotation. "Learning" suggests "teaching." But most racism that exists isn't taught. It's grown through observation.
Our brains are built to notice patterns. When people watch the news and see violent perps are mostly black, their subconscious notices. When listen to the radio and hear violent thug music is mostly by blacks, their subconscious notices. And then they form attitudes that they may not be consciously aware of. The way pattern recognition goes away is through experiences that contradict the pattern. Reading Thomas Sowell does more to dispel the belief that blacks are less intelligent than any amount of telling people that blacks are intelligent.
The system is NOT racist. No one is teaching people to be racist. But the racism that does exist is because of real patterns that exist in society, and people have insufficient experiences that invalidate those patterns.
Isn't that Vaush? That's not a college prof...
Yes and he is so dumm,and full canseled i think
Yeah, he’s just a weirdo and weak, pathetic white boy. And virgin too!
I was confused too i was like "wait he's a professor?"
No, no he is NOT a college professor.
Maybe it’s because they are discussing Khendis theories and I think Khendi is a professor
I grew up in the 90's and we were, for the most part, "Color-Blind". We were aware of the difference in skin colors, but only consider Black/White/Brown as descriptions, not differences. Not so much for the Generation before or after us though, both of which are Hyper Focused on race for one reason or another. 80's kids tend to be the "Micro-Agressors" while 2000's kids experienced the "Re-Birth of the Divide" and 90's kids are just left wondering what is going on and why saying something "Color-Blind" is now considered racist.
Inaccurate.
Yep, I was in elementary from around 1991-1997, and there was zero racist that I saw, and the color of my classmates' skin never crossed my mind. And we did have some black kids there.
Yeah I've always thought the 90's was the pinnacle decade for racial relations. Then the 2010's happened and we regressed..
The 2000s Static Shock cartoon is a perfect example of this. Static was black but it wasn't his entire personality. It flavored his style, yes, but the most defining part of his character was not *what* he was born as but was *who* he *chose* to be, and he chose to be a hero.
@aaronfarris6539 Oh man, that's a throwback that I need to rewatch ASAP. Thanks so much for the reminder.
People do not realize that slavery was common for thousands of years. People of all races have been inslaved though out history. MOST of the people owned slaves were not white. Only a very small % of Americans owned slaves and there were black slave owners in America. It was western civilization that first ended slavery and worked to end it through out the world Slavery legally continued in Arabian countries and Africa until the 1980s. Slavery still continues in those 16:53 countries today though on a smaller scale. We have slavery on our southern boarder today where hundreds of thousands of wemon and child are sold as sex slaves, organ traficking and work slaves. China inslaves young children to work in their factories. There are more people in slavery today then was in the entire Transatlantic slave trade. But we just shut our eye's to it. We will never stop any racism using a racist idea like critical race theory. The socialis Marxist in America are doing what socialist have done forever. They know if they can devide people by race they can creat division and hate and people devided can be controlled.
Enslaved. Much easier to take you seriously when you can spell correctly. Truly I am speaking as a friend in this because you are absolutely correct!
Vaush has stated on video on multiple occasions he is willing to OUTRIGHT LIE to further his political view in debates.
*Why would they debate someone who has no plans of having an honest debate?*
PS He is a Pdfile apologist also
Ah, the guy that likes horses and kids. Destiny may be more vocal, but this guy is far morw insideous.
Hahah yeah the fact that you can recover your reputation after getting caught mid stream with lolicon and pony smut on your computer and openly defend pdf files is purely leftist. That would NEVER happen to someone on the right.
The way he frames his questions and statements automatically makes my neck hair raise, big massive ick.
Unsure whether it's because I've seen some of his content or whether I'm subconsciously picking up he's disingenuous / bad faith
He reminds me of the gay psychologist in that woke AF hospital show. I can't remember what it was called but it was the stupidest thing I've ever seen. I saw a clip of it where the character that looks like this guy literally told a Hispanic woman that her child's tumor came from..... racism.
They really fucking wrote that shit.
I can’t agree. Steven Bonnell has proven himself to be atrocious in attitude and opinion.
He doesn't like horses, he wants to BE a horse. That has sex with women. Yeah, he's super weird.
When you were in third grade, you were enjoying the only childhood you will ever get!
yup and most peoples child hoods before CRT was being pushed didnt include thinking any different about someone based only on their skin color they would think different if the person was being real nasty as far as their attitude but thats it race was never on peoples minds once slavery was abolished and before crt was pushed onto the kids
i was born in 1960, my best friend in 2nd grade was black (I am not) and I thought her darker skin was envious, I wasnt thinking about 'racism' just that she was gorgeous. Children do not hyper focus on these things and we shouldnt teach them to see differences as a concern, just a beauty.
As a man who grew up and lives in the south, we get A LOT of flack for racism but everywhere I look I see everyone getting along, working together, eating together, starting families together, and race is never really problem
When I was in the 3rd grace I was FAR too busy thinking about Pokemon and watching Xmen and Ironman cartoons!
I imagrated at around grade three. The first black person I met, i remember thinking "aw man. His sandwich is rotten. The bread is yellow. I'm gonna offer him some of mine" .. he then offered me his back. So reluctantly I ate it, and it turned out to be waaaay better than mine. It was a jamaican beef patty. That's the difference I noticed. It was more the food, than anything to do with race. Let children have those innocent experiences without tainting it with all this division
In 3rd grade I thought I was a Thundercat😂. We never gave a shit about race in the 80s and 90s. Just look at the sitcoms from the 90s
@E_Legal_Alien what was the name of their little mascot? I vaguely remember it being like an elderly-looking kitten that had the more cartoonish voice. He annoyed me.
@@zitools 😂 Snarf
@E_Legal_Alien that's right! Thanks.
You remind of my black friend Marquis. We grew up in rural NH and never once talked about or paid attention to our differences. We had FUN. Being born in ‘88 it’s been crazy to see these changes over the decades. I subbed, great content my man!!
Up until 6th grade I was constantly playing basketball in a Karl Malone jersey and I'm white. I didn't even have the slightest care about the color of each other's skin.
I was about 3rd grade when I noticed that the only dark skinned people I saw had curly hair. (This was around 1958, in Alameda, California, on the Naval base. I remember my dad rolling up the car window really fast. But I was just making an observation and was curious because I hadn’t noticed until then!) At that time, I had only seen a few. One was the lady who helped my mom with laundry, and I adored her. I didn’t even consider her to be above or below our white babysitter, who was also hired by my mom to help her. These women taught me that work is honorable and that doing things beyond the job description is normal. These two women are as responsible for a lifetime of work ethic as my parents!
When I was in 3rd grade, Color was never a thing. Friends were friends, it didn't matter what they looked like, we all agreed on that
I remember (very late 90's) this girl at PE told me she wished she was black and was really sad about it. That was the only time I witnessed something like that with little kids. I had no idea her reasoning, maybe she liked a boy, maybe she liked R&B music videos.
My best friend growing up is black and I used to never think about it at all.
Now, simply saying this makes me racist because if you reference having a black friend you're using them as a prop somehow.
Things got so twisted.
@@DrummerJacob That's just a tactic they use to control you. Point out exactly what they are doing and say you wont allow it.
3rd grade for me was Phoenix, AZ in 2008. I'm a white guy. Was about 50% Hispanic, 35% White and 15% Black and others. We were not talking about race. We were all friends with each other. Our parents paid no mind when we'd visit each other's houses. We all liked the same things, played soccer during recess, and marbles. Talked about Diary of a wimpy kid and tech deck skateboards. Was a great time to be a kid.
The first time I recall even thinking about another person's skin color, I was in 5th grade. We were visiting family in Florida. My sisters and I went to walk with one of our cousins. A young black girl about my own age waved and said "hi" as we walked past her house. I waved and said "hi" back, like normal for me. My cousin had a fit, because "You shouldn't talk to people like her." I actually had to ask "What people?" Blacks. I actually had to glance back and look again at the girl, because her skin color hadn't even registered with me. My parents raised us with MLK's philosophy of judging people based on their character. I STILL live by that. Anyway, before that incident in 5th grade, I don't remember giving a thought to anyone's skin color. I was raised around people of various skin colors and nationalities.
In third grade one of my best friends was samoan and one was middle eastern. I didnt know they were a different race until i was in 6th grade. The color of their skin never even crossed my mind because our culture was the same. We just saw each other as fellow americans
I am 53, I grew up in a town with less than 10K people in Wyoming, and I never thought about the color of a person's skin. I graduated in Albuquerque, NM. and served in the Military from 1989 -2000. Up until the election of Obama as president I don't remember the discussion of color being as prevalent as it is now. I served under the leadership of Black leaders, and never thought anything about it, I just learned a whole lot from them and used that to help advance our division.
It all started with Obama! I remember the first speech I heard from him after he was elected and I was kind of shocked like what is he talking about!?!? I noticed it right away and it's never stopped since!!
Im a new zealander, the first time i realised people were different despite having met many folks of many different ethnicities, i was 10 years old and staying at a marae (indigenous meeting house for tribes) with my mum for her work. I made friends with an indigenous girl and she asked what words i knew in maori (her language) and i sang her a song i knew she joined in, i said the words i knew followed by "thats all i know, im not maori though".... She said " i know" and i wondered how she knew ...then it hit me that i looked different... I hadnt even thought about it from that perspective up until she told me she knew i wasnt the same...despite being the only white kid there lol.
I was raised to treat people how i want to be treated.. no matter who they were. We didnt talk about race or religion or disability (my mum worked with kids with disabilities and i was raised around kids with a whole range of abilities and from different ethnic groups...it wasnt talked about..if someone couldnt see or couldnt walk it was just matter of fact and you treated them like you would treat anyone else, and if they needed help, you helped just like you would anyone else. No hyperfocus = seeing people for who they are not what they are at first glance
When I was in third grade, the only question I had about a person with darker skin than me was why and turns out why didn’t matter it just was. So for me, that’s just who they were all that mattered was were they a good person or were they not a good person?
I had a black friend in 3rd grade but we never talked about the color of our skin. However, when a teacher dropped the n bomb in 5th grade, our whole class stood up for him and got her fired…
When I was in school no one worried about anyone’s skin color. Fast forward to 2021 my son is biracial and we changed his school because his classmates bullied him for “not being black enough”….
Every continent on earth had slavery, countless millions around the globe. Korea had the longest unbroken chain of slavery in history, thousands of years if I remember right. It was white men among others who were not drafted, they signed up to fight and die because slavery was just wrong.
Is he gonna bring up the black slaves owned by Indians and black people?
Of course not
I grew up on the edge of an Indian reservation and had a lot of Indians in my school. No one really cared.
I remember when i was three years old i went to the preschool at the church my mom worked at. There was a black teacher that I was scared to talk to or give a high five to because she looked different than me and my 3 y/o brain thought she was dirty. My little brain just didn’t understand and was scared of someone different than me. My mom sat me down and told me that she was just like me, but her skin was just darker than mine. I went up to say hi to her and I was really scared, but she was so incredibly nice and i gave her a high five, and after that race meant nothing to me. I didn’t need to be taught Critical Race theory. My 3 year old brain just needed to be taught that people look all kinds of different ways but they are still just like me.
Of course small small children have implicit bias bc they don’t understand anything that’s different than them. But as they get into elementary school those things aren’t relevant anymore.
When I was in 3rd grade the last thing on my mind was race.. All we wanted to do as young boys was win at the game we were playing... Basketball baseball etc. Im 31 now. And although we were a mixed bag. Skin color never crossed my mind. What an insane world today.
Yes part 2!
I'm gen X we didn't care about any of this trash, hence Chappelle show, we all laughed at each other equally.
I never had a thought about skin color as a kid, some of my favorite classmates and playmates were black, hispanic and other 1st generation immigrants. We all got along and were very good friends in school. Some moved away after a few years, but new ones came and we also got along perfectly. We still run into each other many years later as middle aged adults. So this professor is nutz.
It's interesting that as a black kid John Cena was your favourite, and as a white kid The Rock was my favourite. Highlights how as kids we are all colour blind, and caring about race is something that is taught to us later. Great video, keep it up man!
I remember as young child, like 3 or 4, seeing a black person and noticing the differences in skin color and hair texture. I wasn't afraid, but intrigued because it was so different from my family. I noticed differences in other ethnicities as well. I also noticed differences in white people from what makes us look so different. I was always taught that we may look different, but we are all brothers and sisters through our Heavenly Father. As an adult I've seen black children look at white people uncomfortably and almost fearfull, and that's okay because it's natural to fear, at that age, something different. I remember watching the Roots series with my family and crying about how slaves were treated and beaten. I remember how we were taught in school, in history classes, of the atrocities that happened in the past and how we overcame. I feel like our country is going backwards with this race theory. We need a melting pot, not segregation. I had my son go to a predominantly black middle school and was called many racist names, pissed on by a bunch of boys in the bathroom, and another time was punched in the face after walking into a bathroom. He walked in, a kid asked him his name, he told him his name and the the boy decked him and left. Anyway, he didn't understand why he was treated so badly when he treated people kindly. Racism can be in every ethnicity, color, etc. We know that he was treated badly by bad individuals, not a whole race.
I was born in 1983, started junior school in 87 and in my first week befriended a boy called Neil.
Every day when I was picked up by my parents, they asked me about my day and I kept talking about playing with Neil. Hearing everyday about Neil, mum and dad asked me what he looked like so they could see who this lovely friend was. I described his hair, his eye colour, this don’t narrow it down for them. I then told him he had pink palms which surely would’ve narrowed it down for them?
They finally met Neil and I was describing a brown Indian boy. At no point did I mention his skin colour because I didn’t see it!!
This is proof that children are colourblind until the difference is pointed out to them.
We still keep in loose Facebook touch with each other.
When I was in elementary school most of my friends were black… we never thought twice about.
I grew up with lots of different types of children. I went to school in NYCity. I only wanted to play or watch TV. White, black, brown, yellow meant nothing to me.
This was in the 60’s and 70’s.
American black vs African black...
When's the last time an American was worried about a machete?
Africans?
Different continents, different problems.
African black people look down on American black people, they're disgusted by them
Ask an African black in the US how they handle the systemic racism. See how long they laugh.
My kids grew up on military base and had friends of all races played went to each other house didn't go our own way until middle school
11:13 ON POINT, YOUNG THINKER! the intention, rhe motivation
Came across this video through the algo, just wanted to say it's refreshing to hear your ideas on whats being talked about in this video. usually the person chimes in and repeats something or says something stupid but your commentary is spot on. You are an intelligent guy, you should look into Law School where that mind can do some good for others! Make part 2
In third grade, the most I thought about race was how I was envious of one of my black classmate's hair, she had two braided pigtails with see through hot pink beads on them. I thought the beads were so cool, so I did a few little braids and put beads on the end. Granted they were cheap plastic pony beads from a bracelet making kit, with a rubber band tying up the end😂😂
Education doesn’t equal intelligence or wisdom. You can’t buy what needs time and ability to acquire.
2:16 Pokémon was my 3rd grade. lol
Pokemon yugioh digimon & poker 😂
As a toddler, I learned the song 'Jesus Loves the Little Children', and it solidified my understanding that we are all God's children, we're all shades of brown and we are all equal. The song goes as follows.
🎶 Jesus loves the little children, ALL the children of the world.
Red, Brown, Yellow, Black or White, they are precious in His sight. Jesus loves the little children of the world! 🎶
I was in the 3rd grade in the early 70's. We had a very racially mixed class. Nobody ever acknowledged anybody by skin color. We were all just kids. We played, wrestled, chased each other. But not once did race ever show itself as a dividing factor in anything we did.
I was in third grade 8 years ago and race was still never a problem. People make problems out of nothing cause they have nothing important to worry about. If were worrying about racism we should be trying to stop it in countries that are actually racist and not the us where anybody can enter this country
I'm white and a little native american and went to a mixed school. When I was in 3rd grade there was this taller, really cute-faced black girl I was crushing on. Dude I'm in my 40's and still remember her name, LaTangela..
Being racist requires intent. Theres no such thing as secret racism, or to put it another way, there is no one walking around who is racist and just "doesnt realise it" absolutly moronic "theories" that defy all meaning and logic.
When I was in the 4th grade my friend (tryvon black kid) and I were going to my friend Peter's house who live with his Polish immigrant grandmother and when she opened the door and saw me started to smile amd then she saw my friend she gasped slammed the door in our faces and tripped running up the stairs hahahahaha
When I was in 3rd grade, I was thinking when the hell is recess? We got kickball and 4 square to play!
JoJo I'm an Englishman soon I will no longer be able to have my voice heard to even have a discussion about this or like this. You and other Black Voices I have heard over the last few years gives me hope for America keep up the good work peace and love to you and yours
As a history teacher of 6th graders...if you can't teach kids to write their name, stop breaking pencils, and read something longer than a headline...you have no business teaching anything this politically and racially charged.
"How does that aid them?" is such an insightful question. I really appreciate your opinion on this. I think we get really bogged down on the "truth" of history without asking whether any of this helps our children at all. Thank you for your content as always!
The 90s were awesome! We didn’t give a RIP about skin color. We were all good with each other. They’ve messed it all up.
Please do a part two! Thank you! I grew up in a racially diverse neighborhood from 3rd grade through 12th grade. I graduated HS in 1966. Among my friends race was ignored because it wasn’t important! My story is anecdotal, so this not to paint an idealize picture of other people’s experiences, but we are not groups we are individuals with unique life experiences!
When I was in 3rd grade I definitely noticed differences but didn't really care I was friends with everyone. I remember my grandpa made racist jokes and I didn't understand them at all.
I'm a Caucasian dude, and I lived in the lower 9th ward in NOLA for almost a year. No problems.
Spot on commentary as always, LFR. You have some of the best insights around for this kind of content. Keep up the good work!
I'm an 80's kid... born in '75. Color didn't matter one bit growing up. I had friends of every ethnic background, and we all got along. Of course, we were aware that we looked different than one another, but it didn't matter. Why all of a sudden is it a good thing to MAKE it matter? We could joke with each other, razz one another about what would now be labeled as "hate speech"... and we could laugh at ourselves. People have become so afraid of saying WORDS that it's saturated the essence of who we are as people. No one has a sense of humor, everyone is a victim and white people have to walk on egg shells. Even in high school in the 90's... this division didn't exist.
We are better together now that we've come through it all God Bless America and God bless the ones that love America
I like your commentary. Pragmatic, succinct, addresses the actual speech, calm, and doesn't drown out the initial clip.
Before the U.S. Constitution was ratified in 1788, **five states** had taken steps to abolish slavery or had established gradual emancipation laws. These states were:
1. Vermont(1777) - The first to abolish slavery through its state constitution.
2. Pennsylvania (1780) - Passed a gradual emancipation law.
3. Massachusetts (1780) - Interpreted its constitution as abolishing slavery through court rulings, particularly in the Quock Walker case in 1783.
4. New Hampshire (1783) - Like Massachusetts, slavery was effectively abolished through judicial interpretation of the state constitution.
5. Connecticut(1784) - Passed a gradual emancipation law.
I was in 3rd grade in 1993 I think. It didn't concern us what others race were
He openly admitted to being attracted to horses just fyi.
There is a big Reddit post and a black kid and white kid saying they are twins cuz they had the same haircut or something because they dont look at their skin color
I spent some of my formative years in a minority Neighborhood in Aurora, CO. My two best friends were mixed Filipino/Puerto Rican, we stayed at each other's houses all the time, they even watched me for 2 weeks at their house while my Parents went out of town, those two were like brothers to me, then I had to move back to Oklahoma so I only saw them one time after that.
I'm 30 now, but when I was in third grade, there was no racism. We were taught what racism was, but I never met anybody who had any issues with skin color. I grew up in Alaska and went to a school where I became friends with a variety of different kinds of Alaska Native kids, a Black German kid named Isaiah and a little black girl named Kamiah, an Egyptian boy named Ephraim, a Puerto Rican boy named Diego, a Japanese girl named Amber, a Chinese boy named Kyle and a LOT of Russians of a variety of skin tones. We did not know racism and everybody made fun of their own ethnitities/culture. I look white-ish, but I am a variety of ethnicities, a mix if you will.
I went to school in the 80's and 90's in south Texas. No one ever talked about race and we all hung out with everyone. White, black, Mexican, and Asians.... all hung out together and it was cool.
Man LFR family came a long way been watching you and your dad for a while man and love your content , keep it up bro 👌🏻
I went to catholic school k-12 in the south, graduated early 00’s, we only had I think 7 kids out of about 600 in the school system that were people of color. 3 of whom are still my best friends today. There was no racism or exclusion.
When I was in the third grade I moved to a predominantly black neighborhood, and I can with 100% certainty say that I did not even think about race. I made some of the best friends I ever had based on their character and our similar interests. Race was not even a spark in my brain until I was much older.
In third grade i was more focused on helping my grandma in the fields (my grandpa had just passed away so it couldn't be the three of us) and watching the Packers every week (she was a huge packer fan and so was my teacher. She gave us green and gold treats wherever they won).
It gives me hope for the future that a young guy in college is able to look through the bs being pushed by people that just want to divide us, and decide for himself what's objective, what's plausible, and what's complete nonsense
I was excited about space, dinosaurs and books. In third grade I actually loved Shakespearean over the top drama. I loved reading. I’m a nerd, through and through. I also rode my bike as long as the street lights let me, and made tree houses and makeshift bridges over creeks. Stood in said creek with my dog and came home smelling like…creek. But I was born in ‘71.
It’s not that they are teaching Marxism or anything else in college…it’s that they teach these ideas with bias and talk about all the pro arguments as if facts(many time untrue or lies) and never give the good counter arguments….this is the problem. Nothing needs to be ignored talking about…but a professor should give both sides best arguments…and also not make kids have to agree with them for a good grade
When I was in third grade, all I thought about was football and baseball. My teachers never talked about those things . . . my grades suffered. 🤪
I'm like 10 years older than all my cousins and one thing I've noticed when they became teens and first were introduced to words like racism and prejudice is when they started acting more prejudiced. We're black and I'd take care of them and take them to events when they were 11/12 and younger they didn't care if the kids they ended up grouping up to play were black, white, Asian, boy or girl. As teens they first wouldn't group up with bigger kids , then no kids that aren't black or white boys. Next, oh and it them pushing ppl away. Like who is putting this into are youths heads?
