In a historic move last month, Illinois became the first state to require that Asian American history be taught in public schools.
The Teaching Equitable Asian American Community History (TEAACH) Act “will paint a more complete picture of our shared history by adding Asian American history to the Illinois School Code,” according to Asian Americans Advancing Justice Chicago.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!! So my learning about Asian Americans, Native Americans, Spanish Americans, and Black Americans back in the 70s wouldn't be allowed in Georgia because it might cause guilt??? HA, HA, HA, HA, HA, well they definitely won't teach any modern republican insurrectionists history then.
