    I think its good that you had to read something you didn’t agree with in school. Look what its done for you.

    Get over high school. Soon enough, you won’t remember Ms. Brown’s name.

      My problem is not with reading something I disagree with, it’s how it is taught. It was not taught in a way to demonstrate bias, and the author’s views were never even discussed. There was nearly no critical discussion about the validity of the book’s message, it was taken at face value. That’s not teaching.

        And its long in the past, my friend. But the more you reveal, the more foundational the experience sounds for you.
        Step back. Look again. It helped make you who you are.
