Re: History needs to be taught to all, and ALL lives matter.
All Lives Matter is True. That is true. However, the Chinese, Europeans, and Mexicans have never been enslaved in America as long as African Americans. Even the Indians enslaved Blacks. All minorities have been mistreated. However, Black Males have a higher rate of death by discrimination.

Re: All Lives Matter ?
All Lives Matter is also true. But in America historically Black Lives Don't Matter. Or we would not be debating that All Lives Matter.

I disagree with you. Here's why: people have experienced prejudice whenever they came over from another country. This includes the Irish, Mexicans and African Amercians. We as a nation and as individuals have a chance and choice to make a life here. Yes, some are dealt a better hand and yet there are those who are not. Many of them have gone out and done what it takes to get ahead.
Even Ali Jr. said that his father would disagree with black lives matter. He would say all lives matter. I agree. All lives matter. We have it in our power to change. We need to vote and show the government that all lives matter by voting for candidates that value all lives not just the rich.

True history, not false or altered is a must. Education is the only way to overcome. Then older people anyone especially dealing with the public need to be educated. Oh and like in Singapore where Chinese Indian and Malaysian people have to live amongst each other. What a good idea.

I believe that is what anger's people. No one talks about the other immigrants who were mistreated and made to be inferior. The Chinese, Europeans, and Mexicans have also had their fair share of batlle wounds throughout history.

Shouldn't we also teach American Indian history, Hispanic history (even though they did not originate here), Chinese History, too? This is America.....that is what our history should be about....the good and the bad. JMHO...
