Apparently the school board decided to institute a revisionist form of history books and the KIDS are protesting. Seems the teachers are not too happy with this school board either.
"They waved signs declaring, “It’s world history, not white history,” and talked about Cesar Chavez and the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Leaders of the walkout urged others to stay out of the streets and not to curse, and sympathetic parents brought poster board, magic markers and bottles of water."
Well, I suppose if they are going to make the education worthless, the education they are obtaining from "real life" activities such as protesting, making decisions about right and wrong and following through with their convictions could be an extremely worthwhile substitute.
The history book rewrite reminds me of Stalinist Russia where they would just take the books and put different people in the pictures and rewrite the history accordingly.
