Go home and be a family man!
I remember in 5th grade they split up the boys and girls and had us boys watch a video about a girl getting her period. The teacher told us that next time we would have a video about boy stuff. There was no next time.

In retrospect I wonder if the tapes accidentally got switched, since presumably there was another video we never got to watch and a class that never happened. I also wonder if the girls had to watch a thing about boners and jizzing the bed


I do appreciate it though since before that point I assumed that the blue liquid in all those commercials was supposed to represent piss

We watched schindler's list in high school. One kid laughed out loud when a nazi shot a jewish concentration camp prisoner for no reason.

We watched a few holocaust movies in history in I want to say seventh grade. Older ones like Escape From Sobibor. I remember thinking it was kind of hosed up how half the glass giggled every time some jews got gunned down. This was Texas, though.

Since people are talking about other stuff besides the movie Kids, I guess I can post this.

My grade 7 teacher showed us the first couple episodes of Roots. This was 1992 or so. *maybe* 1991 but Alex Haley died in 92 I think so maybe that has something to do with it. It might have been the TV cut because I don't remember too many N bombs in it, but in the early 90s I feel like they wouldn't have cut that out for tv.

I always remembered watching those parts of it and picked it up on DVD like 10 or so years ago. I thought it was pretty good.

Anyways, something something TV stuff about slavery, possibly a shitload of N bombs in front of grade 7 kids.

I recall some guy talking in health class about how he could make his pants move and asking a question about morning wood to the gym teacher who was teaching the sex ed for boys for some reason

So I knew that guy since we were like, 2 years old. We used to dig in the sand and look for dinosaur fossils together. He also told me we could never get married because his skin was slightly darker than mine when we were 9.

My personal opinion, but we should all watch the same scary rear end health class videos together.

We watched Roots in grade school and again in middle school. I don't remember the N word ever being used. It was probably the 70s miniseries we saw w/ Lavar Burton the Reading Rainbow / Geordi guy.. hmm.

I tried watching Kids on my own time and the first scene where the guy is bragging about banging virgins was too much for me and I had to turn it off because I'm too much of a sensitive little baby.

One message you can get from Kids is wrap it up, or you will get AIDS. Also, don't rape. Although, I don't think it has any intentional message other than "LOOK HOW hosed UP THESE KIDS ARE. AAAAAIIIIDS!"

I remember in grade 5 or 6 we were in a bus going to school camp and the teachers decide to put on The Shawshank Redemption, so anyway we got to the part where Andy Dufresne just arrived in prison where all the swearing started to scare the new inmates, and one of the teachers ran to the front of the bus and turned it off. :(

I assumed they just heard it was a really good award winning heartwarming movie and they hadn't actually watched it, or just forgot the stuff at the start.

I will not shut up about the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers. I talk about them all the time and work them into every conversation I have. I built a shrine in my room for the yellow one who died because sadly no one noticed because she died around 9/11. Wanna see it?

The guy who put it on was a big white dude with a southern accent, and he had to have a meeting with the Dean of the department in which he explained that the racists in the film are depicted as cartoonist morons.

Our teacher brought in a copy of a Moonlighting episode that was Taming of the Shrew inspired because we were talking about Shakespeare, I think.

Then the trailer for the movie Casual Sex came on and she tried to fast forward through it was quickly as she could, and failed because the entire class was already laughing.

I went to look it up and holy poo poo, the trailer AND the bumper for Moonlighting episode is on Youtube!

In my department it all stemmed from it being the criminology faculty's turn to pick a new hire and they went with this renowned theory guy who was a white guy from texas who wore cowboy boots when the inequality faculty wanted a not as renowned but now more renowned race scholar who would have never taken the offer over the prestigious private school he also had an offer from. Then the two big inequality people left and the students blamed the department's legacy of racism for a lack of mentorship. Also someone got a C on a paper and said it was discrimination and they reversed it but then she ended up failing out of the program anyway because she failed inequality comp. And stats. Or something like that. She ended up going into state politics.

There ended up being an external review but all they concluded was there was a lack of mentorship "in certain areas."
