I studied in the Henrico County Public School System from K-12 in the 2000s-2010s. During this time, we were progressively introduced to the history of Virginia, from it's original inhabitants to the colonizers, slaves, modern immigrants and everything in between. As we went up in grade level, we were taught the context of these settlements and movements, good and bad. Virginia is the home of the birth of this country, and the foundation laid here set the standard for the society, good and bad. Living in Richmond, the history of indigenous wipeout, massive slavery, colonialism, the confederacy, segregation, and regrowth is impossible to miss. CCT and the unfortunately misattributed CRT simply aims to expand on the inclusive education we received by adding additional context and voices from communities who have been generationally affected by the sins of the founders. We all always have room to learn and grow, to reflect and become better citizens. Let's ensure the next generation can continue to be great, by showing them that we are able to learn, grow, and heal too.
