Teachers at an elementary school in Georgia are in hot water after assigning third-grade students math problems about slavery for homework.
An example math problem from the homework read: “If Frederick got two beatings per day, how many beatings did he get in one week?” Another question stated: “Each tree had 56 oranges. If eight slaves pick them equally, then how much would each slave pick?”
In a surprise to exactly nobody, parents were outraged when they discovered the assignment.
