Most students have Juneteenth off from classes in Ohio, but education advocates worry that a bill close to passing the Ohio Legislature would prevent them from learning why.
Juneteenth recognizes the fall of slavery in the United States, proclaiming freedom for enslaved people in Texas. But Kent State University student Wahinya Njau says that for his community, it is so much more than that.
"A lot of professors might decide, it's not worth it to go into too much detail about this — 'we're just going to skate past it real fast and move along with our lesson' — instead of focusing really deep on some of these issues that still permeate through our country today," Njau said. Cirino explains professors should be using facts to demonstrate the history, not their own beliefs on the rights or wrongs of a topic.
