bunch of racist kids start circulating a petition to bring back slavery, get reported. I wonder what kind of people are raising these kids? As far as the bolded part, don't worry, the Republican party will make sure future generations don't have to learn about slavery as they call everything CRT and start removing slavery from the textbooks. What a shitty political party and movement.

"KANSAS CITY, Mo. – The Park Hill School District is responding after some students circulated a petition calling for the return of slavery. Other students are also weighing in, saying all this has created an uncomfortable environment in the halls of Park Hill South High School.
Students with direct knowledge of the situation tell FOX4 the petition to bring back slavery was something peers shared online. Soon, there were leaked screenshots of petition comments, including things like “I hate blacks” and “I love slavery.”
Some students say they don’t think the school took the situation seriously from the outset. Park Hill South Senior Brie Holmes recalled her reaction.
“I thought it was fake. I thought it was like a sick joke and a rumor,” Holmes said. “And my teacher had said that she was also upset by it, but the kids were like, joking about it, and not taking it seriously.”
...
“I think we got a lot of hurt students. A lot of students who are hurt and mad and frustrated. They’re confused why this is happening in their community. I do not sense that they are taking it lightly whatsoever,” Herren said.
Holmes said she’s been reflecting about when she learned about slavery as a younger student in the district.
“And I remember we were talking about what they did to the slaves when they were in slavery, and I remember crying in class. And my teacher asked if I was okay and I was like, ‘If I was back then, that could have happened to me,'” she recalled."
