San Diego students talk about racism, bias and privilege in ethnic studies classes
On a recent rainy day in City Heights, Sharon Apple began her ethnic studies lesson with a question for students: What comes to mind when you think about slavery?
In ethnic studies classes across the San Diego Unified School District, high school students are learning about things rarely discussed in classrooms, such as the enslavement of Native Americans, the origin of the N-word, and the elements of implicit bias and privilege. Until now ethnic studies has been offered by a few local districts, but soon it will become mandatory for all California public high school students.
Critics allege that ethnic studies and other school anti-racism efforts divide people, make generalizations about race, indoctrinate students in favor of liberal ideologies and make white students feel guilty.
