Editorial: A new state ethnic studies proposal hits closer to the mark (via latimesopinion)
that would have required California high schools students to take an ethnic studies course in order to graduate. Medina put the bill on hold until, as he put it, “we get the curriculum right.”
Of course, an ethnic studies curriculum can’t be totally objective. No one should want it to be. The whole point is to foster greater understanding and push back against intolerance. The most basic theme of such a course is that racism is a flat-out evil. That, at least, should be inarguable in our society.
Instead of delving into the issues affecting a multitude of groups, the new curriculum mentions various groups in larger contexts — such as migration to the United States — and leaves room for schools to design their curriculum around their student populations. It’s a good plan, up to a point.
