That really wasn't the argument, Bobert. The discussion was hi-jacked. What we started out to determine was how would this material be presented to children in such a way as to allow them to see the entire complex narrative.
The way it is now, you have a black side and a white side--at least you had a black side and a white side--now, do to the realities of sucking up to big business, you have multiple sides and the situation is even more confusing.
What you are describing above seems to be one piece of it all. If you want to talk about Affirmative Action, for instance, it seems to me you would have to consider the people who have been damaged by Affirmative Action.
