North Carolina schools must teach students the full story of Black history

In 1787, a deal was struck whereby enslaved Africans in America would be counted as three-fifths of a person for purposes of a state’s population. Hence, the origin of the “three-fifths of a man adage.” Although this step was taken largely for the purpose of determining how much a state would contribute in taxes (as well as its representation in the U.S. House of Representatives), in 2021 the “three-fifths compromise” is still in effect when it comes to Black history education.
Recently, controversy has swirled in North Carolina because the history of the nation’s oppressed people isn’t being adequately taught in schools. Everyone, it seems, has weighed in, from Lt. Gov. Mark Robinson to high school students.

Despite earlier stall, lawmakers vow to try again with Holocaust education bill

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- As the world marks International Holocaust Remembrance Day, teachers in North Carolina continue to grapple with how to teach the next generation about the most infamous event in human history.
"They have an idea of what it's about," David Beller, a Raleigh high school teacher, told ABC11 of the "normal" student experience. "They probably did something maybe with Anne Frank in middle school, maybe they read
Night, but that's probably the extent of their education of the Holocaust, unless they're history buffs and they've done their own thing and their own research."
Many, if not most, or even all North Carolina middle schools and high schools teach about the Holocaust in some way, shape or form. The Department of Public Instruction also provides resources to teachers and has organized a North Carolina Council on the Holocaust.
