Lololi In The Gap

a meditation on everything in between... the sometimes beautiful and sometimes ugly distractions between two quiets

HISTORICITY (was already taken): soapbox time

historicity-was-already-taken:

If you can, please sign this petition. Lawmakers in Arizona have banned public schools from teaching any courses with racial or ethnic themes. This is incredibly dangerous and (obviously) racist, and though I don’t know how much of an effect this petition will have I still urge you to sign it.

On a related note, the Tennessee Tea Party is fighting to remove mentions of slavery from textbooks, because they don’t want to see the Founding Fathers portrayed in a negative light. A nation which tries to erase unpleasant historical truths and keep the youth ignorant is an oppressive, unfree state, and I urge you all to fight this push for erasure in whatever way you can.
