The 'S' word: Talking about white supremacy
We sometimes receive comments from white supremacist/racial purity groups. The comments are removed, but they remind us to think about why we sometimes talk/teach about white privilege and racism, but may not always make clear connections to white supremacy. We wonder how and why teachers may or may not address this in schools.
What are your thoughts regarding teaching K - 12 students about the connection between racism, white privilege and white supremacy?
