Everyone has heard about a massacre that happened half way around the world but this the first time most heard about this one.

I was born and raised in Columbia, SC (not too far at all from Orangeburg) and I don’t remember EVER being taught this in public school!!! That’s so crazy to me. We cannot erase history like this, especially when it pertains to our racist past. Its so sad to see such racial inequality still alive today :(

Why not ? They sure want to do away with history if it concerns the Civil War.

I know there are many places in the US trying to erase history and many places where they just simply dont teach things that happened and that history books are filled with lies but is it possible that it was taught but that you just dont remember it . I know I dont remember every thing I was taught in school and I have friends who swore that nothing was taught in schools in Ontario about the residential schools across Canada but I went to numerous schools all over Ontario and I remember being taught about it in different grades and in several schools .

@P1 Smith Why, most books were written by 2nd & 3rd hand sources? Why not read from actual firsthand sources...you'll be surprised "Mr. compulsory educated book reading dude" 😅😅😅

I've lived very close to Orangeburg all of my life. I remember being taught about this in school. It was a horrible event. What's even more sad is that the areas near SCSU and Claflin are known now as a hotbed for gang violence and shootings. They happen almost daily. Orangeburg is not a safe town for anyone after dark anymore.

There is a lot of history that you sheep are unaware of. Like the fact that 2 registered members of the democrat national committee founded the kkk. The democrat party legislated every single segregation law(jim crow laws), and the democrat party is responsible for slavery and indentured servitude. How long have you been supporting the democrat party?

I also will guess that, it depends on who's telling this story, because it's has been whitewashed and covered up for so long. I want to say how can the U.S. can talk about Putin. With story's like this everywhere in U.S history. So it depends on who telling the story?
