Are you angry at the teacher for planning this, angry that the teacher was unable to carry it out, or angry that the school apologised? I'm not sure what you're getting at. Where's the nonsense? |  |

Angry that children were being asked to mistreat clothes by staining them with tea?
Angry that non-historically accurate synthetic fibres would be present in the clothes?
Angry at the incongruity of slaves having tea to spill?
Angry that the school sent a letter, wasting paper, rather than a text?
Angry that the children weren't actually sold into slavery to give them a more realistic impression of life as a slave?
Or just angry? |  | | |

I think they would be better off teaching the kids proper history, Battle of Agincourt, Waterloo etc and how the British Empire civilised the world. Next thing they`ll be making white kids apologise to their black counterparts for the slave trade. |  |

Whilst your post is unnecessarily adversarial on the teaching profession as a whole, this does seem a pretty misguided idea. |  |

Or teaching them how England and Scotland took a lead in making the slave trade illegal? Where do you stand on the development of rights here? Proud of Thetford born Thomas Paine? Any thoughts that during the time of Empire the British went overseas and saw other cultures which had ideas that were worth bringing back to Britain? |  |

Can you "civilise" a world? Colonise being the standard terminology. |  |

Proper history? Are you saying learning about the horrors of slavery isn't proper history? [Post edited 17 Oct 2017 17:16]

Ahh. You mean White History.
While it's important to know your own local and regional history not sure the positives outweigh the negatives if people can only see history in those narrow terms.
We should be teaching kids world history and human evolutionary biology (at least to provide some context) so that people stop missing the point of history. |  |

I find it astonishing that your ancestors survived all those periods of 'proper history' to be frank. I can only assume that the contemporary apple has fallen very far from the tree. | |

Although inoculation was already a long established procedure, as with most discoveries and inventions Jenner built on prior knowledge from many parts of the World:

In addition to reparations, can we not just repatriate Bergholt to somewhere more suitable? Like the Mariana Trench. | |

Agree it's a nothing story but the OP has chosen to react to it in a certain way. This is a forum. People can then respond. I have no intention of sticking the boot into him i'm just amazed at how some people see the world. | |

And if this keeps on like it has started most of us will have to dig up some old history and find something we never knew about on the way. So thanks, BergholtBru, for fostering a bit more enlightenment on TWTD. | |
