The whole country would have to teach about Juneteenth more if this was the case. I don’t see our public schooling system going through that much trouble to educate the kids about that ugly part of our nations history.

Now that I'm semi retired and work from home, yes. My last boss had a very creative way of telling us why he didn't observe the MLK day. I can't repeat it here because I don't want a perma ban

I had never heard of Juneteenth until last year. Yeah, yeah, I know, I know. I'm a middle-aged white guy in Kansas. Who was married to.a black woman, and close with her family for 8 years. Never even heard the word "Juneteenth" until 2020.

It’s crazy when you grow up and realize the amount of huge pieces of our history completely hidden in text books. It’s almost as if they’ve tried keeping people from knowing anything about it.

Yes. Also get Presidents’ Day and Good Friday off. Thought those 2 were kind of odd when I joined my company.

There is just too much to cram in a book and even years of education.

What makes it worse-is when states try to do state history/social studies/humanities standards; everyone tries to get their agenda in. Even with 12 years of education there is not enough time to teach all of it.

Minnesota has never had a social studies standardized test. it would have to be 400 questions.

Yes, my company gives us MLK AND Columbus Day off. One year we also had the day off for Rosh Hashana. An eclectic mix of holidays to be sure.

That’s it. Just not enough time. When they were getting down to the nitty gritty of our nations history they decided George Washington’s cherry tree being cut had way more significance to our history as a nation than Juneteenth, the Tulsa race massacre, Japanese concentration camps, Etc...

I mean we can’t tell a lie after all so why not just try to erase it so we won’t have to.
