This is how it’s always been taught,

And …

Some methods are lacking and limiting.

Some methods are harmful and dismissive.

Some methods are unsafe.

Some continue to oppress.

Some are exploitative.

Some are depleting.

 

This is how it’s always been taught,

And …

We are learning all the time.

Language continues to evolve.

New research continues to emerge.

Textbooks are continuously revised.

 

Yes, this is how it has always been taught and,

We can do better.
