11:06Now PlayingThe Texas Senate have passed a bill that would eliminate teaching requirements on some lessons about the civil rights movement and the women's suffrage movement.
The vote was 18-4, as it also removes teaching requirements for more than 24 historical figures, events and documents, which include Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s “I Have a Dream” speech and the Ku Klux Klan. Many educators and opponents of the bill have highlighted that accurately teaching history would be virtually impossible with so many restrictions on subject matter.
Texas Representative Ron Reynolds joins Charles Blow on “Prime” to discuss Texas’ whitewashing of history.
All this and more on “Prime.”
