"A group of Texas educators have proposed to the Texas State Board of Education that slavery should be taught as involuntary relocation during second grade social studies instruction, but board members have asked them to reconsider the phrasing, according to the state board’s chair."
- Brian Lopez, 'State education board members push back on proposal to use “involuntary relocation” to describe slavery', The Texas Tribune, 30 June 2022. https://www.texastribune.org/2022/06/30/texas-slavery-involuntary-relocation/

Sugar-coating the evils of slavery with vague and meaningless words is a cowardly attempt to cleanse the repugnancy of slavery for young ears. Children need to hear what happened to generations of Black people-- including children their own age. The children of slavery weren't protected, yet we're afraid of telling the truth to children living today.
