Questions for Your Teachers/Professors to Answer

Provost, President, Professors - I Dare You to Listen

Questions for Provost, President and Professors- Please Answer. 1. “Why weren’t we taught that thousands of Black soldiers fought in the American Revolution?” Students want to know why figures like Crispus Attucks, Peter Salem, and James Armistead Lafayette are missing from most textbooks. 2. “If Black soldiers fought for freedom in 1776, why did slavery continue for almost 100 more years?” My questions forces educators to address the contradiction between American ideals and American reality. 3. “Why did the 54th Massachusetts have to fight for equal pay even while risking their lives in the Civil War?” The New Generation of College Achievers recognize injustice and want to understand how racism operated inside the Union Army. 4. “How could the Harlem Hellfighters be heroes in WWI but face lynching and segregation when they came home?” The next question highlights the brutal gap between military honor and civilian racism. 5. “Why were Black WWII veterans denied GI Bill benefits and blocked from buying homes because of racial covenants?” Today's students want to understand how federal policy helped create the racial wealth gap. 6. “Why were so many Black soldiers sent to frontline combat in Vietnam, and why did they return to the same racism they left behind?” This question connects military service to civil rights struggles of the 1960s and 70s. 7. “If Black Americans served in every war up to Iraq and Afghanistan, why are their contributions still left out of class discussions?” For the lesson plan for this episode email: radiotalklr@gmail.com [radiotalklr@gmail.com] Contact; 773-809-8594 Daring to Teach Uncomfortable Truths in Ethnic Studies "Daring to teach uncomfortable issues in Ethnic Studies is not the problem — silence and fragility are. A new generation of students are asking real questions about race, power, history, and identity. They are not divided by truth; they are divided when institutions avoid it. Courage in teaching builds clarity. Avoidance builds confusion. If we claim to prepare students for a diverse society, then we must stop protecting comfort and start protecting honesty. Silence and fragility are divisive — not the willingness to confront what students are ready, eager, and demanding to learn."
