''3 good reasons for slavery'' homework assignment sparks controversy
January 10, 2018
MILWAUKEE, WI - A homework assignment at a Wisconsin Christian school
sparked backlash after a teacher asked students to list "three good reasons >for slavery."
Fourth-grade students at Our Redeemer Lutheran School were handed a group >assignment on Monday in English class.
The question: "give three 'good' reasons for slavery and three bad reasons."
One parent said she was shocked and offended.
"It's highly offensive and insensitive. I was in shock. I couldn't believe >they sent something like that home," parent Trameka Brown-Berry said.
Brown-Berry is the mother of a 9-year-old boy in the class.
"Not only was my son in an awful position, but the students who weren't >black, because it's that sort of mentality of not being able to see from >another's perspective and only seeing your lens-- that's what dangerous. >That's what keeps racism going," Brown-Berry said.
The school's principal Jim Van Dellen declined to speak with reporters, but >admitted that the assignment was out of line.
Van Dellen said in a letter sent on Tuesday to parents and students, "The >purpose of the assignment was not, in any way, to have students argue that >any slavery is acceptable."
He said the assignment, which Van Dellen said was intended to spark debate, >is no longer part of the curriculum.
"And for it to be a Christian school, they could have said something like, >'What are three good things we can do to prevent slavery from happening?" >Andrea Michel, with Safe Place Meeting Group, said.
The principal vowed to better communicate sensitive subjects being discussed >in class with parents before presenting it to students.
Brown-Berry said the homework assignment should be a lesson to us all, and >that's the reason she posted it online.
"Speak up, tell your story and voice your opinion because that is how you go >about change. And that is what I was trying to model for my son,"
Brown-Berry said.
The principal said he will meet with Brown-Berry parent face-to-face on >Wednesday.
It is unclear if the teacher was disciplined.

Most peoples have, at some time or another, been
both the slaves and the slavemasters. In the absence
of Caterpillar equipment, if you wanted to get ahead
quick in the old world you acquired lots of slaves.
However there IS a context issue here. If you'd given
this assignment in, say, the Czech Republic then it
would be a "neutral" sort of questionaire. Hand it out
in the USA, with its relatively recent history of large-
scale slavery and post-slavery racial oppression,
then it becomes something else entirely.
IMHO you *never* ask anyone to justify slavery
in the USA, not for a few more centuries anyhow.
May as well go to the local VFW and ask the old
timers to list ten reasons why Hitler was a great
guy ... or to the women's shelter and ask them
to list five positive things about rape.

rape is a clear case of slavery...
hitler widely use clear slavery...to the extent of deliberately
working slaves to death
marxists regularly and plausibly talk of wage slavery...
in america, slaves were a valued asset...as were the many
indentured workers from europe...
thus they were 'paid' to varying degrees...and their
descendants are now getting better lives...
waving the victim flag several generations later rarely much

claiming to be a victim is not the most effective route to self

thus i find the notion of 'slavery' a mite slippery...
if i am often to deal with people who make crude assumptions
as they react without thought to words, i try to start by getting
some idea of just what they 'think' they are on about...
much of the time i'm not even sure if their crudity of expression
is deliberate or accidental...

as you have moved on to my next question :-) i would like to

Sorry Abby ... but I can't agree with your take on
slavery here. Even an unbeaten slave is STILL
a slave, a prisoner sans crime or conviction.
No, it wasn't all like Uncle Toms Cabin, but it was
still pretty bad - and could GET really UTC at the
slightest provocation.
I didn't hear of any delegations of ex-slaves going
to Washington in 1866 demanding the institution
be re-legalized. There's a reason for that - nobody
wanted to be a slave, did not feel "improved" by
the experience either.
The persistence of apartheid for over 100 years
after slavery officially ended isn't exactly anything
America can brag about.
It extended many aspects
of the "slavery experience" ... so it might be fair to
say slavery didn't REALLY end until the 1965 Civil
Rights Act.
