What's the point of a ban on saying white people are bad?
Everyone knows they are.

Oklahoma City school board denounces new law banning critical race theory as protecting 'White fragility'
Gov. Stitt says HB 1775 allows history to be taught 'without labeling a young child as an oppressor'
The eight-member Oklahoma City Public Schools Board of Education on Monday unanimously denounced a new law signed by Gov. Kevin Stitt that implicitly bans the teachings of critical race theory from being included in the state's public school curriculum.
Board member Ruth Veales, who is Black and Native American, argued the legislation was attempting to quiet discussions regarding race "in order to protect White fragility."
"As a district that's over 80% students of color, this is definitely an insult," Veales, who is the longest serving board member going on 12 years, said at the meeting also livestreamed online. "It is a situation that is so egregious to me."
Stitt, a Republican, signed House Bill 1775 into law on Friday. In part, the bill states that "no teacher shall require or make part of a course that one race or sex is inherently superior to another race or sex." Though the bill does not name "critical race theory," it does list several concepts that cannot be made part of a course by school employees, such as the belief "an individual, by virtue of his or her race or sex, bears responsibility for actions committed in the past by other members of the same race or sex."

That is an awesome combination. Board member Ruth Veales should write essays in an attempt to teach white people what it is to not be privileged, however futile such an exercise might be. Mere words really can't do this topic justice, I know. One must live the experience.

Have white people write an essay on their grandparents and their story.
