TimesDispatch.com | Mother contests 'slave auction' Apparently the Swift Creek Elementary School shouldn't have allowed role-playing (slave auction) in educating kids about slavery. At least one mom was upset about it. I think she was vastly oversensitive about the deal. Her daughter, and the other kids, got an idea of how a slave auction works.
If we were really so anti-slavery, then we would be continually protesting those countries that still condone slavery (like Niger). Apparently, not talking about something that ended 140 years ago in just the right way is more important than doing something about an existing situation.
Go Figure?
