NJ parents reportedly outraged over 5th graders' slave auction poster assignment


In one case, a poster listed the names of slaves up for auction. The poster listed a 12-year-old girl named "Anne," who was described as "a fine housegirl." Another poster read, "All slaves raised on the plantation of John Carter," and specified that only cash is accepted. NJ.com reported that there was a meeting called at the South Mountain Elementary School in South Orange, which is outside Newark. The paper reported that parents criticized the school on social media and the school district is planning a meeting.
