Agree wholeheartily..at least you had the awareness and education to be aware of the bull..many including myself at that age didnt have clue/ or didnt have enough tangible examples to call up on that could sucessfully counter their claims.
Thinking on my feet I dont think its enough to ask parents (many of whom are ignorant or not well versed enough in their history or maybe not good teachers) to expect to teach the bulk of our children their history.

Most white children parents are thick as two planks but they get a sense of their version of history in everyday media and life. I think ideally it should be a organsied schools that deal with our history. But thats another story..

I definitely agree with this, and constantly stress this.

Osborne told Black Britain: “You can’t give an unbalanced narrative. If they are going to give a narrative it has to be balanced. You are going to have to include the so called wonderful parts that they love to celebrate as well as the not so great parts. That involves the Trans-Atlantic slave trade!�
What are these wonderful parts about the British empire. There was nothing positive about the British empire. Not one thing at all. To allow them to teach even so called limited benefits is a direct contradiction to African history though African eyes.
Benefits indeed.
